    Description

      F1 on a function does not work if the arguments does not match the function.

      Many times one needs documentation on a function, but if the signature does not match then neither help nor follow function under cursor works.

       Create a normal Console Project, add the lines as shown:

       

      #include <QCoreApplication>
      
      int main(int argc, char *argv[])
      {
        QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);
        
        a.addLibraryPath(); // New line
      
        return a.exec();
      }
      
      

       

      Click on the addLibraryPath function and press F1: Creator opens the Help Mode page but states "No documentation available"

      Expected: Help mode should be on the QCoreApplication::addLibraryPath() function

      Also control click on the  function nor the variable name does nothing. 

       

      This is a huge issue from a productivity point.
