I think I know what creatxr is saying... He wants a RAD tool like wxdevcpp. That's an amazing tool I already tried some time ago. wxSmith is quite different, it's still being developed, and it has a great future as one of the most important plugins on Codeblocks. If you like the wxdevcpp style, then why not to use wxdevcpp?, I prefer wxSmith like style because of its portability, and of course because it comes with Codeblocks, which in my opinion is the best C++ IDE I ever seen.
