+ \section1 Semantic Highlighting
+
+ Qt Creator understands the C++ and QML languages as code, not as plain text.
+ It reads the source code, analyzes it, and highlights it based on the
+ semantic checks that it does for the following code elements:
+
+ \list
+
+ \o Types (such as classes, structs, and type definitions)
+
+ \o Local variables
+
+ \o Class fields
+
+ \o Virtual methods
+
+ \endlist
+
+ To specify the color scheme to use for semantic highlighting, select
+ \gui {Tools > Options... > Text Editor > Fonts & Color}.
+
+ Qt Creator supports syntax highlighting also for other types of files than
+ C++ or QML. For more information, see \l{Generic Highlighting}.
