It should be mentioned that RR has more ready-to-use stuff than HC, because RR has a whole series of field tools instead of one. That counts for the button tools as well. Besides that, there is the library with some prefab stuff. Then again, I miss some items like an example on how the progress bar works (you rev people probably thought that because RR is so fast, nobody would use a progress bar ;-). Other things I like to see in the library are: - images in text fields - a standard menubar with all the commonly used items properly working (new, close, save, print, quit, undo, cut, copy, paste, find, help, about) - a standard toolbar with those same items - a good script that dims/disables the items in the toolbar/menubar that are not available - read and write data to a properly formatted XML file that uses a DTD These are things that kept me occupied quite a while. Most of them are solved, some others (like dimming 'undo' when not available) not. I am working on XML handling at the moment, because I think XML should be the way all data should be stored.
