| The Qt Creator project export is available for the GCC_ARM toolchain; it generates a [Qt Creator generic project](http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-project-generic.html) and a Makefile, in a similar fashion to the *Eclipse and Make* exporter. | ||
|
|

| The generated `.creator` project can be opened in Qt Creator, enabling integration with the project pane, syntax highlighting and automatic code completion; the Makefile can be used to actually compile the project, and should be automatically called by the IDE when the Build command is issued. |

This sentence is in passive voice, and our style is to use active voice. I would like to change this active voice, but I do not want to accidentally change the meaning. Would it be correct to change this to the following?
"You can open the generated .creator project in Qt Creator, enabling integration with the project pane, syntax highlighting and automatic code completion. You can use the Makefile to compile the project; the IDE automatically calls the Makefile when you issue the Build command."

That should be fine, although I'd leave the "should" in the Makefile bit ("the IDE should automatically call..."), because it seems to be merely a default setting, which I don't know if is contractual.

I changed the sentence from passive to active; sorry, I actually did it last week but forgot to commit. 😴 |

Thanks for taking the time to update this. We appreciate it. :) |
