Follow up to this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/553518/winforms-style-ui-look-and-feel-tips So I have created my "base controls" from which other controls inherit from.

What's the easiest way to implement (something like) Gmail's interface for labeling messages? Does any javascript library have a widget like this? Behavior: Click a label in the dropdown to immediately label the message. Check multiple labels and then "Apply" to add multiple labels (not sure I like the "Apply" requirement...) Type i...
Hello I'm looking for ways to de-spaghttify my front-end widget code. It's been suggested that a Finite State Machine is the right way to think about what I'm doing. I know a State Machine paradigm can be applied to almost any problem. I'm wondering if there are some experienced UI programmers who actually make a habit of this. So, t...
I definitely appreciate a good interface and as a developer, I try to create them for my users. But appreciating a good interface and designing one are a different thing. I'm looking for good interfaces (such as IMHO StackOverflow, Gmail) as examples of good UI from which I can model my own UI's. ...
I'd like to apply the MVC pattern to a GUI we are developing for an embedded system. In this case my understanding is we would need to provide the underlying framework for listener/event actions between the Controller and View. Also, I have seen some examples where the Model send an event to the View, but perhaps that is not correct. Doe...

Howdy, I am designing a program that dynamically creates its own GUI at run time. I am looking for a firebug like utility that allows me to move my mouse around the form to see different controls highlighted and see what their size, padding, margins, etc are set to. Thank you, Keith ...
If I have a VBScript like... inputControl1 = InputBox("Hello World") WScript.Quit How can a check box be created in there rather then the InputBox? I know VBScript itself does not have a checkbox control like the InputBox, but is there some library I can use to do something like the following? inputControl1 = CreateObject("library.c...
I want to learn C++ GUI programming using Visual Studio 2008. I'm not sure where to start though. I learned C++ in high school, but not GUI. I've been doing C# for about 3 years now and thats how I "learned" GUI programming. Now I want to learn how to write GUI's without the use of the .NET framework, so where do I start? ...
I'm working on a winforms jukebox in C#. I'd like to have a vertical progressbar for the volume control. Does anyone know how to do that? ...
In the very common scenario where you have a textbox, and some kind of validation rule which constraints the valid entries on that textbox. How should a failing validation affect the content of the textbox especially in the case when there originally was a valid value entered before the invalid. Example: Imagine a form where one can ent...
I want to provide my users with an 'advanced' search engine. I basically have a lot of search criteria to chose from : some are very simple/common and will be largely use (ie time period, item id) some are a bit less mainstream and some won't be used a lot, but I still want to provide them Overall, I have around 30+ criteria to chose...
It happens sometimes that one feature seems to belong to more than one place. Trivial example, let's say I've got the following menus : File Pending orders Accepted orders Tools Help I've got a search feature, and the same search window work for both pending and accepted orders (it's just an 'order status' combo you can change) Whe...
I am writing a class in wxPython that displays error dialogs. Here is my code: import wx class Error: def __init__(self, number, string): self.error_type = number self.error_message = string self.choose_error() def choose_error(self): if self.error_type == 1: self.DisplayMessage1() elif sel...
I've been wondering, at what point should I give up the convenience of a static data entry form with designer support for a dynamic UI which removes a lot of code duplication? There seems to be a conflict in the programming world where people constantly try to remove code repetition to improve maintainability and yet when it comes to fo...
I am trying to get a java gui to open a web page. So the gui runs some code that does things and then produces a html file. I then want this file to open in a web browser (preferrably Firefox) as soon as it is created. How would I go about doing that? ...
I need to make a basic image viewer. The main concern is how to implement (in terms of gui components and image manipulation) such features as: zoom in-out, scroll and 'hand tool'. There seems to be several options for achieving this goal, differing mainly in degree of putting responsibilities on the graphical interface framework as opp...
or "How I learned to stop worrying and learned to love measurement systems" I wanted a central spot that I can refer to later to give me a quick low-down on various units of measurement used in programming. SO seemed the best place to put it, and while I could go ahead and answer the question myself, y'all are a much smarter bunch than...
