Thanks for the example, i thought about leaving the tile out also, i just
thought it would make the widgets easier to handle in the design view is all
really, not for its actual functionality haha.
i really need to review the video and use of the command line thing you do, its
all so fast.
thing is this interface is part of a larger project that takes a little while
to build each time i import changed fluid header and source, as the header
changes force other files to rebuild etc.
Do you build your interface seperately while designing it then integrate it
into the target project afterwards?thus avoiding long rebuild times? Is that
what you are doing in the video? i cant remember if you had a main() file in
there or not, i cant look at it right now.
