For a plain text widget, you can either use Fl_Box or Fl_Widget with the label() as the text. eg: Fl_Box *box = new Fl_Box(x,y,w,h); // create a box box->label("Some static text"); // assign static string to label So a complete program might be: #include <FL/Fl.H> #include <FL/Fl_Window.H> #include <FL/Fl_Box.H> int main() { Fl_Window *win = new Fl_Window(300,300); Fl_Box *box = new Fl_Box(10,10,280,40); // create a box box->label("Some static text"); // assign static string to label box->color(FL_RED); // OPTIONAL: make the box red box->box(FL_FLAT_BOX); // OPTIONAL: make the box area visible win->show(); return(Fl::run()); } > Also, Is there a cheat sheet that gives the various windows controls and the > equivalent for fltk widget? I'm not aware of one. Few if any of us use the MS Windows API for making widgets, so pretty sure there's no such cheat sheet/rosetta stone for converting between Windows <-> FLTK <-> Qt <-> wxwidgets, though that would certainly be interesting, assuming someone knew at least two widget sets well enough to start one. _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list fltk@easysw.com http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
