Graphics display using remote interpreter

I've seen where X-11 forwarding is a desired feature but not added yet. However is it even possible to have a graphics application (Tkinter/ QT) run by the remote interpreter and display on the remote machine (to be viewed through VNC)? When run natively on the remote they work fine but when run with the remote interpreter I get:

tkinter.TclError: no display name and no $DISPLAY environment variable

Pycharm is on windows 10 and remote is Raspberry pi running raspberrian linux.

Please try to set $DISPLAY environment variable in your run configuration and also check https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-27511.

I added a environment variable "DISPLAY=localhost:10.0" in settings>console>Python Console and received the same error.
