    \title Issues

    \brief Lists issues from different sources.

    The \uicontrol Issues view filters out irrelevant output from the build tools
    and presents the issues in an organized way.

    To further filter the output by type, select
    \inlineimage {icons/filtericon.png} {Filter Tree} (\uicontrol {Filter Tree})
    and then select a filter. See the tooltips for more information about each
    filter.

    \image {qtcreator-issues.webp} {Issues}

    To find output in the view, enter search criteria in the \uicontrol Filter
    field.

    To view detailed information about the selected line (where available),
    select \key Space.

    To jump from one issue to the next or previous
    one, select \inlineimage {icons/arrowup.png} {Previous Item}
    and \inlineimage {icons/arrowdown.png} {Next Item}
    or \key F6 and \key Shift+F6.

    \section1 Clear the view

    By default, a new build clears the \uicontrol Issues view. To keep
    the issues from the previous build rounds:

    \list 1
        \li Go to \preferences > \uicontrol {Build & Run} > \uicontrol General,
            or select \uicontrol Configure in the context menu.
        \li Clear \uicontrol {Clear issues list on new build}.
    \endlist

    To clear the view, select \inlineimage {icons/clean_pane_small.png} {Clear}
    (\uicontrol Clear).

    To remove one or several lines, select them and then select \uicontrol Remove
    in the context menu.

    \section1 Parse build output

    To parse build output, select \inlineimage {icons/open.png}
    {Create Issues From External Build Output}
    (\uicontrol {Create Issues From External Build Output}).

    \section1 Toggle Clang diagnostics

    To show and hide Clang diagnostics, select \inlineimage {icons/warning.png}
    {Show Warnings} (\uicontrol {Show Warnings}).

    \section1 View the source code

    To navigate to the corresponding source code, select an issue or
    select \uicontrol {Show in Editor} in the context menu. The entry must contain the
    name of the file where the issue was found.

    \section1 Annotate issues

    To open a version control annotation view of the line that causes the error
    message, select \uicontrol Annotate in the context menu.

    \section1 Copy lines

    To copy one or several lines to the clipboard, select them and then select
    \uicontrol Copy in the context menu.

    \section1 View more information in other views

    To view more information about an issue in \l {Application Output},
    select \uicontrol {Show App Output} in the context menu.

    To view more information about an issue in \l {Compile Output},
    select \uicontrol {Show Compile Output} in the context menu.

    \section1 Get help on the issue

    To search the internet for a solution using the contents of a line as search
    criteria, select the line and then select \uicontrol {Get Help Online} in the
    context menu.

    To ask an AI to explain the issue on the selected line, select
    \uicontrol {Get Help from <AI>} in the context menu. To add AIs to the menu,
    go to \preferences > \uicontrol {AI} > \uicontrol {Custom Language Models}

    \title Search Results View

    \brief Search through projects, files on a file system or the
    currently open files and view search results.

    The search scope determines where \QC searches for the search string:

    \list
        \li \uicontrol {All Projects} searches in all projects.
        \li \uicontrol {Single Project} searches in the selected project.
        \li \uicontrol {Files in All Project Directories} recursively searches
            in all project directories.
        \li \uicontrol {Files in File System} recursively searches in
            the selected directory.
        \li \uicontrol {Current File} searches only from the current
            file.
        \li \uicontrol {Open Documents} searches in all open files.
    \endlist

    In \uicontrol {File pattern} and \uicontrol {Exclusion pattern}, specify
    file patterns to further restrict the search scope.

    The search criteria determine how \QC matches the search
    string with text and which results it shows:

    \list

        \li To consider case, select \uicontrol {Case sensitive}.
        \li To search only whole words, select \uicontrol {Whole words only}.
        \li To search using \l{QRegularExpression}{regular expressions}, select
            \uicontrol {Use regular expressions}.
        \li To exclude binary files from the search results, select
            \uicontrol {Ignore binary files}.
    \endlist

    \image {qtcreator-search-file-system.webp} {Search Results view with search options}

    \section1 Viewing Search Results

    After you select \uicontrol Search or \uicontrol {Search & Replace}, the view
    shows a list of files that have search hits.

    \image {qtcreator-search-results-matches.webp} {Found matches in Search Results}

    To show search hits in the editor:

    \list

        \li To see all occurrences in a file, double-click the file name
            in the list.

        \li To go to an occurrence, double-click it.
    \endlist

    To repeat the search after you have made changes to the listed files,
    for example, select \uicontrol {Search Again}.

    \section1 Search Results View Toolbar

    The toolbar contains options for searching again and navigating search
    results:

    \list
        \li To clear the search results, select
            \inlineimage {icons/clean_pane_small.png} {Clear} (\uicontrol Clear).
        \li To move between instances, select
            \inlineimage {icons/arrowdown.png} {Next Item} (\uicontrol {Next Item})
            and \inlineimage {icons/arrowup.png} {Previous Item}
            (\uicontrol {Previous Item}).
        \li To expand and collapse the search results, select
            \inlineimage {icons/qtcreator-expand.png} {Expand All}
            (\uicontrol {Expand All}).
        \li To filter the search results for the usage of symbols according to
            access type, such as read, write, or declaration, select
            \inlineimage {icons/filtericon.png} {Filter Tree}
            (\uicontrol {Filter Tree}).
        \li To start a new search, select
            \inlineimage {icons/qtcreator-new-search-icon.png} {New Search}
            (\uicontrol {New Search}).
        \li If the active project has long paths, select \uicontrol {../}
            (\uicontrol {Show Paths in Relation to Active Project}) to show
            relative paths.
        \li To show the results of earlier searches, select them in
            \uicontrol History.

    output.}

    \image {qtcreator-application-output.webp} {Application Output}

    If you specify command-line arguments in the run settings that are passed
    to the application when running it, they are displayed as a part of the
    application output. For more information, see \l{Desktop Device Run Settings}.

    Select toolbar buttons to run applications, to attach the debugger to the
    running application, and to stop running or debugging.

    \section1 Application Output Preferences

    To set preferences for displaying application output:

    \list
        \li Select \preferences > \uicontrol {Build & Run} >

    to word-wrap output, and to limit output to the specified number of lines.

    To cancel the build, select the \uicontrol {Cancel Build} button.

    To copy the output to the clipboard, select \uicontrol {Select All} in the

    you want to examine it later without having to build the project again.
    This is useful for large projects that take a long time to build.
