- A powerful GUI designer
- .description
- Visual Arts is an Graphical User Interface designer based on the
- Gadget Tools library for Workbench 2.0 or higher. Visual Arts takes a
- different approach in creating professional GUIs that will improve
- your development time.
-
- Visual Arts has some unique features such as creating primitive
- graphic drawing objects such as Circles, Lines and Rectangles with
- options of filled and custom patterns; a Menu Manager to manage all
- menus, a List Manager to manage lists, and Scripts can be attached to
- any active object or menu items and many other unique features such as
- PopUp menus, AREXX interface, custom images, custom images for
- buttons, palette picker, Context Sensitve layout, console and serial
- handlers, speech and standard requester and ASL libraries.
-
- What sets Visual Arts apart from other GUI designers is its ease of
- use and object oriented approach. Any objects created such as
- GadTools or Texts can be manipulated such as sized, change its
- attributes such color, font or positioning; everything you need to do
- is all visually on screen, no need to dig through multi-level menus or
- requesters to perform an operation. Unlimited windows can be opened
- even with the same layout. With Visual Arts simple user interface,
- prototyping and screen designs can be constructed in minutes with
- instant C source code and dynamic link to other applications thru
- AREXX.
