      As seen at Does QtCreator support code thumbnail like Kate or VS2022? there is a need to have a visual representation of the whole document in smaller size replacing the scrollbar as seen below:

      There is also a survey at Do you use the code minimap in your editor of choice? - Hashnode

      Here is a creative way of using ascii art to mark things in the minimap yKELiIR.jpg (815×1022) (imgur.com)

       

      This is a feature that important that it produced two Qt Creator plugins:

      1. i94matjo/qtcreator-minimap-plugin: Minimap scrollbar for qtcreator (github.com)
      2. https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt-creator/qt-creator/+/288081

      I think it would be useful if Qt Creator would provide the feature itself.
