- Many of you GadTools programmers have been expressing displeasure with
- the inability to generate font-size independent code from within these
- GadTools interface builders.
-
- If anyone is interested, I have a GadTools front-end package (not a
- builder) which makes it much easier to build in font-size independence
- where it belongs -- when you create your GadTools. This consists of
- a set of routines and standard programming conventions which let you
- generate GadTools gadget lists based entirely on a specific font size,
- with built-in default sizes for most Gadgets. Your resultant code will
- be less than half the size standard font-size independent GadTools
- setup code, and much more readable.
