Will there be a MUI-Designer for Hollywood?

[bitRocky]

Hi,
is someone working on a program to create xml-mui-guis for Hollywood with a nice MUI GUI?

Just wanted to ask before I start writing such a program...

AFAIR many people want such a program but nobody is actually working on it although it should be quite easy to do with MUI Royale

[bitRocky]

Okay, thanx. But I will write it with ecx.

[airsoftsoftwair]

Whatever rows your boat! If you wrote it in Hollywood, though, it would be possible to test the individual GUI elements on the fly, i.e. without having to launch an external program first.

I dont have Hollywood (yet), so there is no other option:-)
A preview should also be possible in ecx, maybe not so easy.

Maybe we could make a deal, I get Hollywood for free and you will get MUI-Designer;-)

[airsoftsoftwair]

Just add a "Donate" button to your MUI designer... I'm sure it will generate enough donations to fund a copy of Hollywood because many people want such a visual designer. Remember if you use Hollywood instead of ECX, all you have to do is to generate a GUI definition in XML and then feed this XML to MUI Royale to get a real time preview. It just doesn't get any easier...

I decided to take up the challenge after reading this thread...

Wow, I'm seriously impressed!

[bitRocky]

Wow, its very different to my app (or what I have in mind), more complex, much more than I have now;(
