Hi there,

I quite often read the documentation online, b/c the urls are quite
short and simple i usually type them in directly in the URL bar.

I also use the online docs a lot, but I rarely edit the URL.

Instead, I use the Qt Doc Search browser extension for Chrome/Firefox:
https://forum.qt.io/topic/35616/web-browser-extension-for-improved-doc-searches
(Disclaimer: I wrote this extension)

I activate the URL bar and type [q] + [d] + [space] +  + [Enter]

If Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or DuckDuckGo's "Ducky" are enabled,
you'll be taken straight to the class reference page.


How is viewing the documentation online easier than using Qt Assistant?

Thanks for the suggestion, Christian. I've taken the liberty to create
a suggestion bug for this [0], and talked it over with some of the guys
on the team - we like the idea and will get it done.

Have a great weekend!
