Hi Well now that I know why it ignores me, I can move on :) I asked in 3 forums and no one knows *anything* about those files so I assume it is not a much after sought feature and I am pretty sure time could be spend on stuff with more common appeal. I am also on the design part so that´s why I tried this feature. Thank you

Jonas, I still want in the long term to have all wizards on the same infrastructure, I just am not sure that it is worth going through the trouble for this particular wizard anytime soon. There is already some code to handle the form files, but I am not sure how much work it is to move the form class wizard over to the new infrastructure and since it is doing some unique things it might not be worth the work involved. But I need to check that again, I don't remember the details of why I did not change that one yet:-) Having the existing wizard use templates that are not hard-coded into some plugin is a mostly separate issue from that. But I will remove those unused templates for the time being. If somebody ends up making templates available in a more generic fashion (either in the old wizard or turning it into a Json wizard) we can still get them from git.

Hi Tobias Thank you for answering. So only way to add new template would compile a new version. Having templates for dialogs are very handy. So each contains same elements etc. However, since just adding an UI file to a project sort give the same, I do understand if you think adding support for forms templates to the json wizard is too much work for what it does. At least now I can have peace of mind and not try to add via the files since it will never happens. Thank you a lot. -----Original Message----- From: Hunger Tobias [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 24. august 2015 13:26 To: Jonas Eriksen Hjortlund; '[email protected]' Subject: Re: Form Templates are compiled into Qt Creator ? Hi Jonas, I have been reworking quite a few of our wizards since Qt Creator 3.4, so I guess I killed the wizard that actually used those templates but forgot to remove the templates themselves. I'll fix that. The Qt Designer Form Class is still a old-style wizard that has basically everything hard-coded in formclasswizard.cpp and related classes. That wizard should also use new json wizard syntax eventually, but there are a few things in it that are unique and not yet possible in the json wizards, but I am not sure it is worth the trouble of enableing the form handling code that is used in that code in the json wizard. Why generalize something that is used exactly once?

Hi Win 7 (64bit), Qt 5.5. mingw, Qt Creator 3.4.2 The Dialog Templates shown when Pressing File->New ->Qt ->Qt Designer Form Class Like Dialog_with_Buttons_Right Those files seems to live in Qt\Tools\QtCreator\share\qtcreator\designer\templates and Enumerated in templates.xml But even if I delete the whole folder, it is still shown in Creator ?! and that seems to explain why adding a new one is 100% ignored and never listed. So my questions are: Can I add a new Form Template somehow ? Are the external files something that was never fully implemented or why does it include them When it seems that Creator never loads them.
