We are happy to announce the release of Qt Creator 4.13 Beta2 !

Get Qt Creator 4.13 Beta2
The opensource version is available on the Qt download page under "Pre-releases", and you find commercially licensed packages on the Qt Account Portal. Qt Creator 4.13 Beta2 is also available under Preview > Qt Creator 4.13.0-beta2 in the online installer. Please post issues in our bug tracker.

You can read the Qt Creator Manual in Qt Creator in the Help mode or access it online in the Qt documentation portal.
Having to select another folder instead adding simply a number to the build folder broke my workflow. This was really handy when needing to make sure to 100% recompile a project :(
Can you explain what you mean by that?
Prior to 4.12 the build path was a simple TextField in Project -> Build -> Build directory where one could directly edit the path. Fore example I would often feel the need to compile into a new empty directory. With the old system I could simply add a number to the path:
and QtCreator would create this directory for me. Now I have a TextField that contains the build path that I only can alter via selecting a new folder. So I have to manually create a new folder and set a folder name inside the folder selection dialog.
This is with cmake?
Yes :)
Please file an issue at bugreports.qt.io. There might be a reason why the line edit is read-only now, but I don't know it.

What about some docs/help for "Custom Output Parsers" or simple example? I trying but don't have any result.
Well, what did you try exactly?
I have compile error like this:
C:\path\main.cpp(156): error : msg text [C:\path\project.vcxproj]. I try to add parser:^([^(]+)\((\d+).*?\).*?:.*?(warning|error).*?:\s+(.*)$. But don't have anything in issue panel.I try pattern(.*)for capture all strings, but don't have result.Are you aware you can test your expression in the dialog?
In dialog for create pattern all works fine, but I don't have anything from "Compile Output" by this pattern in "Issue".
Are you sure you've enabled the parser in the build configuration?
Yes, I mean no. Thanks! All works fine now. I think for users like me need something text in Custom Parser settings, about build configuration for enable.
Yes, we will do that for 4.14. Thanks for the feedback.
This is looking like it is going to be the release I was waiting for... code surfing and completion are muuuuch improved(they keep working over time), and the new cmake project integration is also much better. Congrats!
