[ snip ] "Modern UI toolkits are intricate things, and writing yet another one won't help anybody."
Hi Joe Thanks for answering my post, indeed these toolkits are very intricate things and I am in way over my head already. So I look after my kids 12 hours a day(hence IRC handle HalfMadDad), repair spectrometers for 4 and program for about 1. I am no one to question you, hope I don't sound argumentitive... but isn't the factor UI an OpenGL binding? The tetris and terrain examples show how it can render graphics and such but is it not a layer down from let's say GTK, QT or WxWidgets? GTK is apparantly 10K pages if you print the source code. FLTK may be less feature rich but it's small code base could be understood by a single developer. Is there a common path that other factor developers are taking to create GUIs for desktop applications? -Patrick ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
