We use QSettings internally, which can look up the system default, but if you give the --settings-dir option, we use a QSettings constructor which doesn't do that. So system-global settings are not really supported at the moment. You might want to file a bug report for that. Thanks for that. I'll raise a ticket as I think it's a basic but important feature.

[Qbs] Qbs system settings
Hi there, I would like to setup qbs profile system wide, I have tried using the '--settings-dir' (eg qbs-setup-qt --settings-dir /etc/xdg), but then qbs-config doesn't seem to read the system settings. $ /opt/qt/5.6/bin/qtpaths --paths GenericConfigLocation /root/.config:/etc/xdg $ /opt/qt/5.6/bin/qtpaths --paths ConfigLocation /root/.config:/etc/xdg I would expect that qbs-config would see profiles defined system-wise too. But it seems that i need to use qbs-config --settings-dir Can Qbs pick up build profiles defined system-wide? I have try as well with --settings-dir /etc/xdg/QtProject, but it doesn't make any difference Thanks, Chris ___ Qbs mailing list Qbs@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/qbs
