Unsolved [POSSIBLE BUG] QT Console Application appears in Application Output panel instead of Console Window

[CybeX]

I would like to have my application output to be opened into a new console window.

Currently it opens in the Application Output pane as show in this question

.pro file for what it's worth

QT += core
QT -= gui

CONFIG += c++11

TARGET = console_app
CONFIG += console
CONFIG -= app_bundle

TEMPLATE = app

SOURCES += main.cpp

DEFINES += QT_DEPRECATED_WARNINGS

(How) Can this be done?

Do you mean Project Mode -> Run -> run in terminal in Qt creator?

I possibly have a bug here:

The run in terminal option was checked, yet it still opened in Application Output.

Qt Creator Info:

**Qt Creator 4.2.0 (4.2.0)**

Based on Qt 5.7.1 (GCC 4.9.1 20140922 (Red Hat 4.9.1-10), 64 bit)

Built on Dec 9 2016 12:18:01

From revision 5071dd80cb

Steps to replicate:

1. New Project> Qt Console Application>next>next>Finish
2. Add some code, anything really
3. Run Application

You will see it opens in Application Output panel

Now go to Project Mode -> Run -> run in terminal and see it checked.

To fix this: (my exact steps to solve this issue)

1. Uncheck followed by clean, run qmake, rebuild.
2. Go back and check it again followed by clean, run qmake, rebuild

And it will open up in a new console window.

@CybeX
yes, I have the same problem sometimes.
I just uncheck it and check it again then run the program and it will work.
