        sudo apt install qtquickcontrols2-5-dev

          Video showing the WIP of having qtcreator running above clickable image :

          full code completion for all UT components and qml modules , and can launch directly the app, you can debug the c++ part also.
          The demo covers python and c++ clickable template, and address-book-app

                        Taking a new stab at this ... So, again resolving Ubuntu.Components in qml files works fine, but resolving Qt includes in cpp files does not. I have qtquickcontrols2-5-dev installed and I don't see anything screaming at me in the Kits section ... but maybe it's still wrong?! See attached. Qt version = None might be wrong?! But I can't select anything else.

                        Update: In Kits -> Qt Versions there is nothing there. I guess that is the problem, but I can't figure out how to get anything in there ... I found some reports online that sudo apt install qt5-default might help, but it doesn't help me 😞

                        Update2: Now I manually added /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qmake in Qt Versions, and selected that in the Kit, closed and reopened, but still doesn't find any QtStuff

                          @doniks well it seems there is definitly an issue with Qt5 path. probably you may found resources around about that

                            Just to share my experience for developping Apps with QtCreator:

                            Should I use QtCreator from 16.04, ubuntu-sdk or can I use latest QtCreator form Qt online installer?

                              @Talkless You can use whatever QtCreator version, the only limit is to use the right Qt Version ( 5.9.5 currently and soon 5.12 )

                              Have you checked also theclickable ide qtcreator feature ?

                                Yes, it did the trick! Very convenient.
                                EDIT: well, OK, it would be much more convenient if that qtcreator had "clickable" integration to avoid terminal, but that's not that bad.
