Can't configure project for Qt Creator

• Jun 15, 2018 - 08:34

I'm following along with the instructions for getting Qt Creator running with MuseScore as outlined on page https://musescore.org/en/handbook/developers-handbook/compilation/compi…

I'm starting Qt Creator with the attached bat file. When I try to to follow the instructions for configuring the MuseScore project, I'm stopped because there are no Build & Run options listed so I cannot configure Cmake.

in the bat file you have set QTDIR=C:\Qt\5.9.3\mingw53_32, that of course needs to get changed to set QTDIR=C:\Qt\5.9.6\mingw53_32, as that is your version. Not sure this is relevant for your current problem though.
Also note: "Qt Creator uses the Kit Desktop Qt 5.11.0 MinGW 32bit to parse the project", I guess this should be 5.9.6 too.
I think the optuins to build and run should come in the next step, after pressing "Configure Project"

I got the bat file from the Qt-additions.zip archive on the instructions page, so you may want to update that to have the correct QTDIR.

I do have Qt 5.11.0 installed (t was installed as part of the regular install process). I installed the 5.9.6 version as well since the instructions made it seem like that was the version of Qt that MuseScore was using.

Pressing the Configure Project button does not show the build and run options. It just switches to the text editor and opens the CMakeList.txt file.

I've been fiddling around a lot and been unable to make any progress. The Configure Project button does not even appear if the Desktop Qt 5.11.0 kit is not selected. And clicking the Configure Project button just dumps you in a text editor with the CMakeLists.txt file. I suspect the docs do not work with the current distro of Qt Creator. Would someone who is able to use an up-to-date install be able to post their configuration?
