You can either find you a graphics library, try some of the windows API... I'd probably suggest using OpenGL or DirectX but I don't know what platform you are writing it on.

Hi,
i'd recommend using wxwidgets as it's mostly portable a bit bloated though. But this happens when somebody wraps wrappers. Give it a try and don't destroy your style by using the WinAPI or even worse MFC or sth.

i recently wrote a c++ gui in raw c++ w/ win32 api... the purpose of the program for me was not so important as just learning about window procedures and event handling..
the gui i wrote recently basically has a few buttons, and does things when they are clicked.. also involves second method of loading in which uses a listbox to show some files... this is may or not be helpful, but you might want to check out the project on my website called "index.die gui" http://poolghost.com/projects.htm .. just the cpp and h files in their to load in to devc++ .. i learn best from looking at code examples so im hoping maybe this can help you too.. later,--c0ldshadow

Really? I'd use the Win32 API... I am/was writing a GUI client/server applications, but it wasn't the GUI that was hard (that was easy!), it was the WinSock, I got a little stuck on, but if I wrote one from scratch now, I'd probably be able to do it...
But, here are my C++ reference sites... Enjoy ! They are not links, so just google the exact phrase and the site will come along... But some are direct site URL's. You'll see... Also, learning the AutoIt GUI really helped me I guess, because AutoIt was the only thing I ever made GUI's with until C++, it helped me understand the structure, and API... ![]() Quote:
