But that seemed to be something very odd. Oh ! I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, I meant RBC "Refactored BLT component".. I hope nobody will be upset changing the name on my own, i will be more careful ! Olivier

I believe there is interest but, as others have said, it will takes a lot of time for users to test out a new tool and yours is by no means trivial. It will take courage and time for a user to start working with a new tool. I took a look at what you have done so far and liked what I see. I may give it a try on the next small project that comes along if it is more feature complete when I'm ready to give it a try. tomk

However, it gives the impression (probably wrongly) that difficult projects are comparatively easy to built, but that small projects take a lot of effort. This is based on watching the tutorial. This impression can easily be corrected by a simple 'Hello world' tutorial, say based on one of the examples out of the Welch book. The other thing of specific interest to me is the problem that I end up with because I write the main code first, and then add a GUI at the end; it is not blindingly obvious to me how one writes the GUI so that it uses the pre-existing variable names and procs.

The tutorial shows what menus there are, which I can see. What I would like to know is how to make a simple app with a menu, add a pane, and a widget in each pane. That covers many of the concepts the program uses. I think there is lots of power in the tool, but I, being sometimes rather dense, seem not to get the basic idea sorted out and so cannot make a simple app as described above. An alternative is to include one or two samples that have a few things in place. I too am watching this tool with interest. In my case I need to make more GUI apps, but dread the process of getting the geometry working as I want. I am hoping this tool will work with my 'issues'. -- Roger Oberholtzer

I am having trouble finding it. All the substitutes for XF seem to have problems. I had XF some years back but during hardware and OS upgrades I seem to have lost it.
