Otherwise for GUI applicacions?

[RHL]

Hello MASM forum :)
I want to question if exist others forms to create a GUI ( controls, images, draw, so on ). everything to do with the API :P

something I create the GUI provide faster and easier
I'm starting a proyect: simple PE editor as my 2nd application , and the GUI is what is taking me more time :/
also, I want to question if is permitted ask help if I cannot do something for my simple PE editor, also I think publish source code  :bg

with my paint program, I leave :( I could not, was very difficult

any words, thanks guys  :bg

Hutch has a little utility called ProStart
you will find it in the \masm32 folder

for more advanced features - you can use an IDE like RadAsm/ResEd
Ketil has a lot of cool stuff

Erol (Vortex) also has a lot of cool stuff and has done some of this, i think   :U

thanks Dave, but the resource editor is for work  with API rigth?
I'm running from the API haha, because I find it very difficult ( well.. I will to learn bit to bit )

the ProStart program is nice but all the that is possible with the program, also I can do it :P
I thought maybe a library, so like C++, for easy creating of GUI :P I do not know if it exist :P

there are several libraries like that
one that comes to mind is xxControls by Chib777....

google around

you can use google image search for "gui lib" or "gui library" to find what you want faster   :bg
of course - most are written for C, but you can make a header file pretty easily

ok, thanks u dave.  I going to check, and use it with MASM  :green

[qWord]

creating GUIs is mostly easy  - the hard part is to make them 'alive' and that does not do any library for you.

[dedndave]

the way i look at it, i write little pieces of a "library" everytime i write a program
it just isn't in a LIB file   :bg

qWord:

yeah, yeah, I can put much controls ( the GUI right? ) , but the hard is to interactive with the user :P
or the WinProc procedures :@ yeah, i had more problems with it
