Two newbie questions!!!
« on: March 12, 2007, 09:46:11 pm »
Hey all,
    Just installed C::B on my XP box and wxwidgets 2.8.0.  Got that compiled also.  My two questions are:

1) There are only 10-12 wxwidgets in the wxwidgets tab.  How do I add more?

2) This one is really stupid so I apologize ahead of time.  Can I build a wxwidgets app by dragging n dropping wxwidgets from C::B?  I tried dragging a wxwidget from the wxwidgets tab and nothing happens?

Thanks
Angel

What are using is called wxSmith and its a plugin for Code::Blocks and not developed by the developers of Code::Blocks.  See the Plugins forum for help about using it.  It is still under development and will not allow you create App like you can in Visual Studio .NET.

This forum is about the development of Code::Blocks, please don't ask questions about using it here.  Post in the help forum if you have questions.

What version of C::B do you use? If you use RC2 (I assumed that because currently there's more than 20 items), please switch to Nightly Builds - there was huge progress even in wxSmith plugin. In http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,5380.0.html there's even installer for nghtly :)

Currently this GUI builder doesn't work in Drag&Drop-from-palette manner. When you click some utton on palette, it tries to add new item before, after or into currently selected item.
