Load Qt projects

If your Qt projects have .pro files that you use to build them with qmake, load them to Visual Studio and convert them into solutions. Then, use Visual Studio to build them.

To open Qt projects (.pro) in Visual Studio, go to Extensions > Qt VS Tools > Open Qt Project File (.pro).

View conversion reports

A message on the info bar indicates that the conversion is complete.

{Project format conversion complete message}

To see the changes that Qt VS Tools made, select View report.

To turn off notifications about completing the conversion:

  1. Go to Extensions > Qt VS Tools > Options > Qt > General > Notifications.

    {Notifications in Qt General Options}

  2. In CMake conversion confirmation, select Disable.
