Is Gambas not also a drag and drop GUI builder, but for BASIC?

It is also it's own IDE, doesn't rely on microsoft's IDE, and it creates a native application, not a website.

Qt designer is drag and drop GUI builder… is C++ now the same too?

Not C++ the language. But Qt designer is like Gambas, but for C++.

So all these things are indeed similar.

If the end result is a webpage, it's more like frontpage.
