Configuring Projects
When you install Qt for a development or target platform, such as Linux, macOS, Windows, Android or QNX, Qt Online Installer creates kits for the development targets.
Select the kits to use for a project in the Configure Projects view when you open the project for the first time. At least one kit must be active.
To maintain the list of active kits for a currently open project, switch to the Projects mode by pressing Ctrl+5.
To specify build or run settings for a kit, select Build or Run below the kit name.
Overriding Global Preferences
In Project Settings, you can override global preferences for the project:
- Clangd
- Clang Tools
- C++ Code Style
- C++ File Naming
- Custom Output Parsers
- Dependencies
- Documentation Comments
- Editor
- Environment
- Quick Fixes
- To-Do (experimental)
If you have multiple projects open in Qt Creator, select the project to configure in Active Project.
