if my .profile contains export GB_GUI=gb.qt5 
The when I start the IDE, it will start and work with qt interface, but when I run my app from the IDE it defaults to the environment for my desktop gtk for example and does not honor the export GB_GUI=gb.qt5 in the environment. At least from my testing It seemed to be doing that. Maybe I am wrong. 

It was a bit confusing as it would look one way while working on it but never the same when I ran it in the IDE. 

Until I discovered this and set the debug option to choose qt or gtk. 

Would it not be better to have the IDE execute the App in the same environment/interface it was being developed in by default. 

Any comments?
