Hi Hannah and Jasem, I think I solved the QT Quick issue for QT Creator. It was just an environment variable QML2_IMPORT_PATH was not being set properly in QT Creator. That is not the first time the issue has been environment variables. Sorry about that, it was not a craft issue at all. This variable will probably be set properly when KStars is fully built I would expect, but if not, I know now what caused it.
