Follow-up: Internet Explorer indicates that something is missing (an
image?) but clicking on it launches the tutorial.
Firefox, however, does not give this hint and therefore there is
nothing to click on.
Best regards

Thanks Helmut for pointing this out. It should be fixed now.

Hi Thomas, tutorial#1 works well for me with Opera 10.51 (it's semi-
automatic,
I mean you have to click after each sequence - really not important,
just
a hint), but tutorial#2 is partly recovered with the right column,
whereas
tutorial#1 has it's own full page. Trying to sending you a picture by
email...

Here are a few remarks after fooling around with your application
(mind you,
these are all _negative_ remarks, because that is the easiest way to
react, my overall impression of pureTkGUI is that it is well-
designed):

- The messages that some packages are missing are useful, but also
a bit distressing. I was thinking: Does it mean that things won't
work?
In my case: Tix widgets were missing and later (on a different
machine)
all manner of packages were missing. However, the GUI builder
started
and did not seem to mind at all.

- If you insert a canvas and click outside the canvas, it is no longer
visible - perhaps use a different background colour?

- The selection of a geometry manager seems unnecessary - at least on
a per-widget basis. I'd rather make the choice for the toplevel or
frame as a whole.

- Some help via boiler-plate code would be useful, for instance for
scrollbars (well, that is the one thing where it will be useful).
I always forget the standard invocation ;).

Oh, and viewing the generated code does not work before you have
generated the code, but that was not immediately clear.

Regards,

Arjen

@ Arjen : By going to settings/configure/missing items, you may
switch them off. Maybe "off" should be the default ?

I had something similar with "panedwindow", only one side
seems usable.
