We have a very large PYTHONPATH environment variable here at work, and when 
this value is added to the 'environmentCombo' combobox
(line 95 of StartDialog.py)
The large size of the variable (in my case: 3533 characters!) means that the 
combo box is enormous and actually extends beyond the size of the screen.  An 
artifact of this is that the dialog doesn't display any of its contents, 
although when I hover over portions of it, I do get tooltips, etc.  Is this a 
bug with QT, and/or is there a way to only show a limited number of characters 
of a particular string for a combo  box, and instead use a dictionary to lookup 
the actual value that will be used on run?

Something like:
VERY_LARGE_STRING_BLAH_BL...
would just be a key into the actual value?

For the time being, I need to comment out that line that populates the combo 
box.

Cheers!
-Nate
