   First, and for most, great job!   I like what I see.  I am using rev 2079.

  I have a question though.  It's been a while since I last ran linux, but I know on Windows it's pretty standard to have the cancel button on the far right.  How come it's on the left (in other worse first)?  That has caused me to cancel more than once.

   The other question has to do with menus.  What are my options when it comes to menus?

Thank you, and keep up the great work.

Byo should be using the "StdDialogButtonSizer" for any dialogs.  This will make sure the cancel/ok buttons are in the right place for any platform.  I can't say if he is or isn't.

Ok, What Windowses Do You mean? It's should not be hard to update, especially with wxStdDialogButtonSizer proposed by Game_Ender

Currently wxSmith doesn't support menus yet. But I'll add support for it, but after first solid-stable version of wxSmith is done

Can't wait until we get there! Anyway... take your time. Your work is really (!) appreciated.

It's the GUI's fault (GNOME). People have been telling that to the GNOME designers for ages. Or do you mean the cancel button's on the left for MS-Windows? :?

I think GNOME's UI looks like  Windows 95. :lol: Too bad they (GNOME UI designers) can't learn (a little bit at least) from KDE's UI.

Try a different skin than the default.  You can even make KDE look like GNOME if you skin it properly.  If anything I would take GNOME to task on the quest to take away options in the name of usability, not looks.

   On windows, the cancel is appearing on the left.  It's irrating because I go to select ok without thinking (because it's a habit) and I end up canceling.  The first couple of times I couldn't figure out what was going on.  Then I looked more closely at the ok/cancel buttons & their locations.

On an offtopic side note, how did I get bumped down to newcomer?  I was a regular.   How does that work?  Is it based off of posts, and it gets adjusted when posts are removed?

As mentioned, byo should be using wxStdDialogButtonSizer but apparently he isn't. I believe he will fix this though

The old posts count that determined a user's "class" were too low (set from the begining of these forums. They were just adjusted to more reasonable levels, based on current user-count .

Ok, I'll surely use wxStdDialogButtonSizer but I need some time

[jmccay]

I guess I was just wondering how I went from 3 stars to one star.  That's all.

Hi
    I am new to C::B and wxSmith.  It is a great tool.  Previously I was using wxFormBuilder for my GUI design.  But now I have started using C::B and WxSmith.  One thing which I miss badly is the support for menubar, menuitems and toolbars.  It would be a great tool one this is added.

Regards,

Ok, no problem, but it will take some time.

Currently I finish redesign and recode of wxSmith and it will take one or two weeks before it's done and before I start coding new features

So all I can do now is to ask for Your patience

[jmccay]

No problem.  Patience is becoming my second talent.  keep up the good works.
