Modern UI system (CEF)
Re: Modern UI system (CEF)
That's right Alexi. An independent system with full control, every pixel.
Re: Modern UI system (CEF)
while im not saying anything against "a modern UI system", i like my apps relatively small and neat and haven't experienced any problems using standard controls (for which PB provides a lot of multi-OS support anyway), so the idea of using something bloated like HTML's CSS (and the code required to render it all) and having megabytes of support base just to say Hello World makes me cringe a bit, i have to admit!

WebKit renderer Gadget would be very welcome.
The Embeddable HTML/CSS/script engine from http://sciter.com/ might be an option ?

Re: Modern UI system (CEF)
Nuklear is a new open source UI library which is written in C, doesn't have any dependencies and is designed to work anywhere. I think that could make an interesting addition to PB especially as we know Fred/Freak have been experimenting with LLVM. I think a lightweight works-anywhere UI could come in very handy if PB is going to venture on to new platforms.
