I was sick of positioning all the gadgets via my sourcecode when i only wanted to design a little tool as fast as possible, and decided to code a little form designer on my own.
I know that it does not have the functionality like PureVision from Paul or the PB Visual IDE from Ricardo, but still i think it will be good enough for most of us... atleast for me it does the job
I had to remove the export function (buggy) aswell as the load/save functions (not even started to code them yet), but still i think its worth a look...

i would like to hear your opinion about this one, since i was planning to release it to the public as freeware...
will it do the job for you when you cannot change the captions for example or all the other things a "real" visual ide can do for you?
dont forget it is only there to position the gadgets and export the code for it... load/save functions could be implemented, but would you need them?
Make some wishes what YOU want to see in pureform... and now, go and take a look...
kendrel
oh... right click on the form to access the popup menu
... and then a click on a clickable gadget to access the functions in the size/move window... and dont hit del twice if you didnt select a new gadget after deleting one... good luck

Hi,
Its nice!!
However, why dont make it works as the 'typical' GUI designer? Its not THAT hard to do ti and -i think- its the easier way to resize/move gadgets.
I found that its easier to do it in PB that in VB (where i develop mine). And the difference in size and portabilitie is HUGE!!!
If you add this feature to your app it will be great !!

Well yes, there are still alot of things to do or to improve, but the main goal is to get the export 100% working.
The export could provide a basic skeleton application or just the commands which create the gadgets... iam not sure about this yet.
Ofcourse this little thing could grow and could become a nice ide, but that wasnt my goal... but i may take a look at the pb editor source and merge them both together if iam allowed to do that.
The last thing to mention is that this tool will be Freeware and will only probably have minimum functionality... if you want more you could always buy PureVision or some other upcoming Visual IDEs... but iam 100% sure that there also must be a free tool for someone who is just starting out with purebasic... thats my point... and why not give a little back to the community from that what i have got!

Ricardo: i was thinking you stopped developing your ide. it seems that i was wrong from what iam reading, and wonder when you will finnish it... and if you release it for free or as shareware or something...

Kendrel,
Can you send me an e-mail : )
If you are almost ready to export the code, maybe we can add the drag/resize part and get a fully GUI designer!!

it is a toolmenu plugin, I had great plans with it
but don`t have the time to develop it further.

i will try to do it on my own first as always, but it would be nice if i can get back to you if i have any questions
but its learning by doing... so ill give it a try
