PureBasic Forums - English

Hi!

I've just started my adventure with PB (anyway, the last BASIC that I used to learn was Commodore Basic 2.0).
I'm working on my first [multi-platform] program, that would consist of some modules.
I'm looking for the best way for switching between modules:

1. One main window on the left side with drawn icons of modules:


2. Two windows - main screen with the choice of modules and another window with the application module


3. One window, the modules are under a few tabs:


Q1: Which version is in your opinion the most comfortable for the programmer and/or user?

Q2: In the beginner's guide [for PB v.4] I read that drawing on windows is "not preferred" because of troubles with refreshing screen. Is that problem solved or not in newer PB-versions? Is that possible that the 1st GUI could cause some problems with drawn buttons/gadgets?

[Sorry for my poor English]

Best regards and thanks for your suggestions,

Wojtek

Different platforms have diffrent usser preferences...

I suggest a TOOLBAR though... you can find several interesting ideas in Proncie's ork:

AAnd others... I think PureFORM assists you in creating a toolbar as well... I just made a row of ICONS under the menubaar and called it an iconbar!

OT, hey Rook, what's wrong with your keyboard? I've noticed a few of your posts lately have a few double letters in places.

Hopefully it's just a malfunction of his keyboard, and not Parkinson's disease making his fingers shivering.
