I noticed 2 bugs:

1)
the borderless windows with gb.qt on Gnome do work only if they are main
windows. But form shown in Modal mode still continue to manifest
borders. Try this: create a simply application with 2 forms, FMain and
Form1. FMain is a normal window, for Form1 set the Border to None.
Then, in the Form_Open() event of FMain put this code:
  ME.Visible = FALSE
  Form1.ShowModal

and run the application. The Form1 window that will appear will still
continue to show borders (of cource, only using gb.qt on Gnome: gb.gtk
works properly).

2)
The second bug is related to the IDE, and in particular to the
Properties area. It seems that using the IDE, made with Qt, on a Gnome
DM manifest errors of rendering. In the screenshot you can see that the
comboboxes of the properties seem to exit out of the IDE border. But if
I click on a different combobox, we can understand: the list of the
properties are moved to the left because the combobox seem just to have
fixed width.
