[codematic]

Greetings,

Honestly its the most annoying thing... whenever it pops up it steals the mouse / Keyboard context. Assuming in need help identifying my API, but i Already know it so... it stops me from finishing the line...

My gawd its annoying...

I dont find options for this. Also i don't find option for switch language back to english. I better understand functionality in english instead my native language.

Not really. Just keep on writing what you meant to write.

Code completion is probably in the CppTools plugin, you can disable it if it's annoying for you.

Settings for code completion are in TextEditor/Completion section of the configuration dialog.

Assuming in need help identifying my API, but i Already know it so... it stops me from finishing the line...

It shouldn't prevent you from anything. If you write something that makes suggested code invalid, the popup will go away. And it's not meant for identifying your API, it's for you not having to type it.

Also i don't find option for switch language back to english. I better understand functionality in english instead my native language.

Delete qtcreator_ru.qm or launch Creator with LC_ALL=C environment variable.

Delete qtcreator_ru.qm or launch Creator with LC_ALL=C environment variable.

I did this for himself, becouse not first year with Qt, but i think new users dont know about this and maybe can't find .qm files in share\qtcreator\translations\ path, or don't know what delete .qm or .ts. What if i invite chinese to my home and maybe he wan't use my QtCreator with him language? I think need add option for select language or file translation.

I think he will have enough trouble using your Russian Windows installation he wouldn't worry about Qt Creator.

On my work i know people who can work inside one program in years, but they fall into a stupor when they have to do the basic actions in OS, such as copying files to pendrive.

Especially if they are Chinese using a Russian keyboard and Russian OS...

Just type the next letter of the word you were typing. Honestly that's the first complaint I ever heard about code completion being there. Usually people complain some editor doesn't have that functionality. I think Trolls didn't assume anyone would ever want to turn it off.

Did you try disabling the plugin as suggested?

There is no options for disable plugins. You can rename or delete CppTools.dll but him depending from CppEditor. Where Creator is starting you get warning message about failed loading plugins and after this you can't edit source files, just nothing happens when you dblclick on .cpp or .h.

Sure there is. Run Creator with -help and see for yourself.

As for the functionality - you can always open cpp and h files using the plain text editor. It means no code highlighting and code completion of course.

I suggest to use VIM the best editor. if you don't want to use features like those you mentioned.
