You do have to admit turing's GUI sucks, plus if you want a more graphical GUI the built-in turing GUI is not the way to go... I recently saw a post where someone did one of these types of things - And so I decided to dig up an old version I was working on a few years back. I will no be providing the source code yet - but I am releasing a sample program Tell me what you guys think. I know there is alot of things I have not included yet (many things I did start, but just removed it from this release due to the fact that they are not finished) such as rollover effects for buttons, full frames (pretty much like a window inside a window), horrizontal scroll bars, text input boxes, check boxes, option buttons, tabs, etc. Honest opinions ans suggestions welcome. |

It's a litttle glitchy: sometimes it would load the scroll bar sometimes it gave an error saying it could not find the picture the error message's icon dissapeared after a shrt while the scroll bar also dissipeared after a while my msn (to the side) went all glitchy when your prgram was runnging, after it finished msn went back to normal |

o.O I have never encountered those problems before... I have run my program on two different computers, and have not had such problems. I will try to find out why this may be happening. TY |

I have run it several more times, on both comps AND with several other things running, and I have not run into those problems yet. Just some thoughts: ? Was it flashy? (like when someone doesn't use View.Update) ? Are the folders in the same directory as the program? ? Are the files/folders saved to a flashdrive? (I don't know why, but sometimes [I dont know if always] when I run a prog made in turing from a flashdrive, it doesn't work. Try saving it somewhere on your comp if this is the case) ? Still trying to come up with other reasons. Suggestions? IF ANYONE ELSE ENCOUNTERS THESE PROBLEMS, OR OTHER ONES PLEASE LET ME KNOW. hmm, just thought of something, probably stupid though... I made the prog on XP, dunno if that could be some reason. |

hmmm well it wasnt flashy it was on my desktop but Im using ME so that is most likily it also maybe I had too many things running which is likely since msn messed up |

that's a relief. Glad to see you like it, I am also working on some more cool looking styles, so I'll post another update later. If anyone has any great ideas I would be more than happy to hear them |
