The QT Creator reference card is a handy reference designed to assist your use of Qt Creator. It is available in Windows/Linux as well as Mac versions and for ease of printing comes in A4 and US letter formats.

QtCreator uses default user settings to determine IDE language. To change language IDE preferences you need to set  LANG variable to en_US value, for example.

It can be achieved by:

• set this variable into Environment Variables section (Start menu -> “Control Panel” -> “System Properties” -> “Advanced”)
• add “set LANG=en_US” command into qtenv.bat file (Qt\2009.05\bin directory) and run QtCreator from command prompt:
  Qt\2009.05\bin > qtenv.bat
  Qt\2009.05\bin > QtCreator.exe
