In this short episode, Jesper Pedersen shows Qt Creator users how to feel at home in CLion by re‑creating their beloved Ctrl+K locator workflow.
You’ll learn how CLion’s “Search Everywhere” (Shift+Shift) works, how to quickly jump between symbols, files, actions and text, and how to bind it to Ctrl+K so you stop accidentally typing into the current editor instead of switching files.
Jesper also demonstrates how to modify the keybinding so that it jumps right to the "classes tab", and how selections in the editor are reused as search terms – giving you a fast, Qt‑friendly navigation setup that matches your muscle memory.
