Important Things

If Qt Creator is not run from the terminal, the programs inside cannot connect to the ROS master. To be able to run Qt Creator from the desktop without any problems, follow a similar procedure to the one that is used in the Customizing Ubuntu tutorial for the Terminator file:

Edit

~/.local/share/applications/QtProject-qtcreator.desktop

and change the third line to:

Exec=bash -i -c /home/rinus/qtcreator-3.3.2/bin/qtcreator

This will run QtCreator from a terminal even if the desktop icon is used.
