Making PB pretty

Post by akee »

We need some inbuilt functions to PB that would allow us to make the applications pretty. Stuff like Menu Icons for menu items and popups similar to MS-Office, roll-over images etc. I know that there are some forums that address this but their capabilities are a bit fixed. Example for menu item icon, you have to change the font, icon size and text colors all at once. You cannot change the individual items or add disabled icons.

Just a note... :)

I agree with you, but we have to keep in mind that every style-up needs to be supported by any OS.

In my opinion its the coders task to do some facelifting in his apps.

Akee, use userlibs...

If the userlib that you want doesn't exist, post on this thread what you want. Maybe someone do that. Or Create a thread which relates all needs important. Userlibs could be created at this moment.

Personnally, I work on userlibs useful for communities (some are in dev : spreadsheets, gadgets (more functions), skin).
