      Background

      • I have Qt 5.2.0 RC, Qt 5.1.1, and Qt 4.8.5 installed in my PC.
      • I set up a project to use the Qt 5.2 kit only.

      Issue

      • When I mouse-over a class/header and press F1, Qt Creator shows me the documentation from Qt 4.8.

      Expected behaviour

      • Qt Creator should show the newest docs applicable to the project.

      Workaround

      • Go to Tools -> Options -> Help -> Documentation and remove the old versions. This must be done every time Qt Creator is launched.
      • Note: Removing Qt 4.8 docs will make Qt Creator show Qt 5.1 docs. The latter must be removed to in order for me to get Qt 5.2 docs.
