News

New! Now DialogBlocks supports wxAuiToolBar, an enhanced toolbar for use with or without wxAUI. wxAuiToolBar supports drop-down buttons, control labels and overflow items.

New! DialogBlocks is now Eee PC-friendly. DialogBlocks' own windows and dialogs have been adjusted to fit the screen on Windows and Linux, and dialogs you create (apart from wizards) will be previewed with scrollbars when necessary. To use scrolling dialogs in your own applications, download wxScrollingDialog. Plus, full-screen mode (F11) gives you more space to work with.

New! DialogBlocks now has an analysis tool for highlighting common problems in your projects, including empty sizers, obsolete styles, and identifier value clashes.

New! We've added a tabbed palette, with elements grouped by category. This visual tool makes it much easier to choose appropriate controls and sizers.

New! We've added a Getting Started guide to the web site to help you set up DialogBlocks and wxWidgets.

Features

wxAuiToolBar support
New! Now DialogBlocks supports wxAuiToolBar, an enhanced toolbar for use with or without wxAUI. wxAuiToolBar supports drop-down buttons, control labels and overflow items.

wxAUI support
DialogBlocks supports wxAUI - any dialog, frame or panel can be a wxAUI manager, handling sizing and positioning of its child windows.

wxPropertySheetDialog
DialogBlocks directly supports wxPropertySheetDialog, for easy editing of your application's settings pages.

Conditional user interfaces
DialogBlocks supports the ability to adapt the user interface to the UI guidelines of different platform. Just mark elements as for one platform (or several), and preview the look for any given platform.

wxFrame, wxMenuBar, wxToolBar and wxStatusBar
DialogBlocks handles frames and its component.

Validators
DialogBlocks now supports validators and custom variables. Just add a variable, select the variable and a validator, and the data transfer is done for you.

wxWizard editing
DialogBlocks is the only wxWidgets dialog editor to support in-situ wxWizard editing. Add pages and change the wizard bitmap while viewing the wizard as it will appear to the user.
