| Hello, Simple Construct is an application that eases the creation of a gui. You can save your work or export it as .bmx file for use with MaxGUI.  How to use: * On the left there is the editing window, right the design window (your app will look this way when exported). * First you create a gadget by double-clicking it in the treeview. * After that it will appear in the design window (right) and in the bottom treeview which lists all gadgets created. * For editing a gadget it must be selected in the lower treeview. Then you can set properties or use commands from the Edit menu. Download is currently MAC only: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2892658/dev/Simple%20Construct%200.9.6.zip (there is a bug on windows which I can't resolve for the moment, it makes compiling impossible) Last edited 2011 |

| Sorry but where I can find the source code? |
| ||
| Added download link. Sorry, I don't know how I could forget this -.- |
| ||
| No problem, thanks! |
| ||
| tried this today, it failed to compile. has this been updated ? fixed ? sure would be handy. |

| Hello, Which platform did you compile on? I couldn't get it to work on windows either. It wasn't updated but it's nearly feature complete for what I intended. Things missing: tabbers, Hyperlinks, splitpanels, setting some properties (like panel color/image) Last edited 2011 |

| Well, it does compile on my Mac, but does not work properly: the size sliders for the elements have no effect and when I move one of them regardlessly, the program doesn't do anything anymore. It does not completely freeze, but I can click on whatever I want, nothing happens. |
| ||
| Right now I have very little time, studying for the final exams :D Maybe I will update it and look into the issues in windows and OSX. @DrDeath: In the root directory of the application replace main.bmx with this version: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2892658/dev/main.bmx I've only changed 2 lines, it may work now due to some platform differences on window focus. |

| I am windows vista, latest maxgui and latest maxide and the error i got was access violation, in debug it halts in the main.bmx INIT() call and says unable to call or access a null object or something like that. not at the PC at the moment so cant be more specific. |

Yeah, that works now. But I noticed some other problems with the sliders: it seems the actual changes on the control elements lag always behind the values I set with the sliders. As example: I create a button and set the X position slider to 200. The button does not move. I set the slider to 50, the button moves to an X position of 200. I set the slider to something else, the button moves to X of 50, and so on. |

| Updated and ready for the Mac. Now looks like this: It's intentional that there is currently no download available as there are some rough edges to be sorted out but generally it works flawless. A demo is coming soon, stay tuned. Last edited 2011 |

| Download available for the mac, look at first post. I'm sorry for not providing a windows and linux version (there are problems with compiling on windows). |
| ||
| Thanks for posting. I've just given it a quick run and it looks promising. I hope you can keep up work on it. cheers Ted |
| ||
| Look Really nice but it would be nice if there was for window 7 that we download :) |
| ||
| The thing is i am currently really busy with another (commercial) project, but I will look into this as soon as I get access to a windows machine. For those interested, these are things on my todo list for SC: Todo: * Missing Gadgets: - HTML View - Tabber - Progbar * Export Options - HookApp: Yes/No? - As application - As code - Maybe XML * Options (Properties) - SetGadgetTooltip - Enable/Disable Gadget - Hide/Show - Combo/Listbox: Add/Remove Items - Local/Global variable |
| ||
| I always thought that there was very little if any changes required between compiling for mac or windows, is there a lot of code that would need redone or tweaked? |
| ||
| The thing is that even earlier versions (back then I programmed on linux) wouldn't compile on windows because of a compiling error. It says something like 'trying to access null object'. As said, as soon I get access to a windows machine I will try to upload a windows version. |
