Theoretically it should be possible, though I'm not sure anyone has done that yet. I'd be interested if it works, too. See http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/qthelp.html#qt-help-collection-project on how to generate Qt Compressed Help files. (Ignore the help collection stuff, that's not needed for Creator.) Then register that documentation in Creator under Tools/Options. The code in Creator actually showing the F1 help is in void CppHoverHandler::updateHelpIdAndTooltip() which does call QHelpEngine::linksForIdentifier(m_helpId) at the end. You might want to add a qDebug()<<m_helpId before that to get an idea what the id should look like for different constructs. That id is the id specified in the keywords section of the help project. Let us know whether that works for you. daniel _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
