How do you make QtCreator show cpp and header files together in left hand src tree?

Question

The left pane in QtCreator shows the src file tree. All headers are in a seperate tree <headers>.

Both cpp and h files are broken down by dir structure.

My cpp and h files are allways together on the storage device. That is, each cpp file is in the same location as its matching h file.

I would like to see the h and cpp files not seperated into seperate trees in the left hand pane. How can this be done.

On hard drive, the project layout is as follows:

dirA
    a.h
    a.cpp
dirB
    b.h
    b.cpp

I use CMake and the project imports and builds fine.

The problem is that QtCreator displays the project as so:

    dirA
        a.cpp
    dirB
        b.cpp

    <headers>
        dirA
            a.h
        dirB
            b.h

I want to see this in QtCreator left hand src tree pane.

dirA
    a.h
    a.cpp
dirB
    b.h
    b.cpp

Since Qt Creator 5 if you go to the "Filter Tree" drop down button, you can select "Hide Source and Header Groups".
