I completely understand where you’re coming from. I really don’t have a lot of experience working with driver development, but at the same time, gotta get that experience from somewhere, right? The other two that I was quite possibly interested in doing were the folder treeview and sound mixer. If there’s any others that you would suggest I would be more than glad to check them out :)
