What's the difference between an application launcher and type in an application name and run it from teriminal?

I have a QT application. When I use my created application launcher to start it, it doesn't work.

However, if I go to terminal and run the application from there, it works.

I'm wondering what their differences are.

Thanks.

Maybe your application launcher doesn't contain the right command and environment?

How is your launcher trying to start the program? Are any errors being reported?

It could be that the current directory is not set as expected. Or the command line parameters being sent aren't formatted correctly. Hard to say without seeing some code or an error message.
