IMHO, a "Plugin GUI Toolkit" should be designed so that specialized GUIs like that wouldn't have to use actual widgets for such things, but rather an "Active Canvas", that lets you do basic drawing as well as mark up "click zones" and the like. Perhaps not too different from the internal interfaces of a plugin API in itself. The point is that it's exported in a useful form, for applications to use. Anyway, not much point in trying to describe something I don't know exactly what it would look like. I'll just try to implement it. //David .- M A I A -------------------------------------------------. | Multimedia Application Integration Architecture | | A Free/Open Source Plugin API for Professional Multimedia | `----------------------> http://www.linuxaudiodev.com/maia -' .- David Olofson -------------------------------------------. | Audio Hacker - Open Source Advocate - Singer - Songwriter | `-------------------------------------> http://olofson.net -'
