- We are using the GUI builder UIM/X to create a Motif interface
- for our product. There are many widget libraries available from
- various sources that could be useful and UIM/X can be exetended to make use of
- these widgets.
- However, each widget must have a cooresponding UIM/X shadow widget (swidget) that
- tells UIM/X how it can be manipulated and what resources are available. Creating
- these swidgets requires a significant amount of effort in some cases.
-
- It would be very nice if the corresonding
- swidget addaptations have already been developed for the widgets that are available.
- Has anyone done this? Are swidget libraries available (PD, shareware or commercial)?
- Do any of the distributors of UIM/X (or the HP version, Interface Architect) sell swidgets also?
-
- In particular we would be interested in swidgets for any table or matrix widgets
- such as those in the Xbae package.
-
- If you are using UIM/X and have or plan on extending it using other widgets please
- let me know. If other existing sources are not identified it we may be able to
- identify a set of widgets that several groups are interested in and divide up the work somehow.
-
- Any information would be appreciated.

- Thanks,
