How To

# Specify editor settings

Qt Creator uses the MIME type of the file to determine which mode and editor to use for opening the file. For example, Qt Creator opens .txt files in Edit mode in the text editor.

To configure the text editor behavior for the current project:

1. Select Projects > Project Settings > Editor.
2. Deselect Use global settings.
3. Specify text editor settings for the project.

Click Restore Global to revert to the global settings.
