The consensus from Nokia seems to be that since you may want to edit the .pri files once-in-a-blue-moon, they should not be hidden. > > -I've setup a project where my main .pro file includes a slew of pri > files, one in each subdirectory.

Still the best solution is virtual folders which Nokia is reluctant to implement. _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
