To view all keyboard shortcuts defined in \QC, and to change them, select \gui {Tools > Options > Environment > Keyboard}. The shortcuts are listed by category. To find a keyboard shortcut in the list, enter a function name or shortcut in the \gui Filter field. \image qtcreator-keyboard-shortcuts.png The shortcuts that are displayed in red color are associated with several functions. \QC executes the function that is available in the current context. If several functions are available for the same shortcut at a time, there is a conflict and \QC cannot execute any function. A keyboard shortcut might also conflict with a shortcut that a Window manager uses for its own purposes. In that case, \QC shortcuts do not work. Typically, you can configure the shortcuts in the window manager, but if that is not allowed, you can change the \QC shortcuts. For example, Unity on Ubuntu 11.10 uses \key F10 in its window manager, and therefore the default \QC keyboard shortcut \key F10 (Step Over) does not work on that system. \section1 Configuring Keyboard Shortcuts To customize a keyboard shortcut: \list 1 \o Select \gui Tools > \gui Options > \gui Environment > \gui Keyboard. \o Select a command from the list. \o In \gui{Key Sequence} enter the shortcut key you want to associate with the selected command. \o To revert to the default shortcut, select \gui Reset. \endlist \QC allows you to use different keyboard shortcut mapping schemes: \list \o To import a keyboard shortcut mapping scheme, click \gui Import and select the .kms file containing the keyboard shortcut mapping scheme you want to import. \o To export the current keyboard shortcut mapping scheme, click \gui Export and select the location where you want to save the exported .kms file. \endlist \section1 Default Keyboard Shortcuts The following tables list the default keyboard shortcuts.
