I let you check my -> worklog <- (click)

I just would like to know about :

What would you expect FastGui to do ?
Is Vista or Xp style ( skin ) unavoidable for a windows graphical gui ?

How much would you pay for this Gui ?


ps : the forum has a very strange way to create a link

I would expect it to ...

-be skinnable to my own needs, not just a few hard coded presets. see sprite candy for an ideal skinning approach imo.
-have precoded elaborate file browsing function ( i had to make this myself in sprite candy, as well as listboxes/comboboxes, wich was dissapointing)
-Spinners arent on your list, I would expect those from a complete gui lib

How much is it worth, well thats an opinion that im sure will vary but for me, the hard truth is that its not worth anything unless it can offer somthing none of the other many gui libs for B3D can.

Looks good though.

spinner are in the list
As you can see on the screenshot, there is slider, stepper and trackbar.

currently the skin is a pack of textures . Each textures are tiled, so you can be easily make your own skin.

eg: this is the window titlebar image.



2 frames : left is "Active" right is not.
each frame contain 3 rows and 3 columns.


The library will be released as shareware when I'll come up with a stable version wich supports Menus and ListBox ( plus, a template for FileRequester and ColorPicker ).


The File-Requester template is already in the "todo-list" ;)


the hard truth is that its not worth anything unless it can offer somthing none of the other many gui libs for B3D can.

it's not far from truth, except, I currently haven't seen any gui build with fast image.
And I assume my gui is :
- really very fast
- support alpha, blend , color etc... ( thx to fastimage )
