On Mac all apps have a nice search field under the help menu (see attached image).
And many qt apps have it too! But i can't find any info about this.
How do i add that to my menu?
ps. i looked on qtcreator's src code, but i didn't find anything!

I think it has something to do with string matching. Often this menu disappears after translating an application from english to some other language. I filled some bug reports to nokia about that help menu in their development tools and the answer was something like: It is not documented by apple how to do this. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

I believe simply creating a menu named 'Help' in the main menu bar on a Mac will cause this search field to appear. I have not been able to discover how to provide results for the search however.
