This is my final version of FFLite.bas and FFUltra.bas Both help build GUI code using a visual editor. Lite is the first one you should fire up and see how easy it is to create a GUI, pen the code and preview it. Ultra will import old .bas files and let you tweak the forms the code contains. Then you can export the changes maintaining the integrity of the original .bas file. Lite is really easy to use, there is help text but you should not need it, just play! This is the link to the files you need.You should feel free to grab this code and amend it as you wish, it is in the public domain. If you do create a variant please start a separate thread to discuss its development.

If you have not tried this tool yet perhaps the approaching holiday is time to give it a go. It is an easy way to create neat GUI applications. It even writes the code for you. Its strength is in its ease of use, a few clicks of the mouse and you will be placing controls, resizing and repositioning till your happy. Then the next surprise, click on preview and see your ACTUAL GUI! This took a few seconds to click together. Its all about getting those pesky x,y width, height numbers easily. Once that was done I clicked on PREVIEW and get to see the real GUI, and the code is all written for you! Have fun.

Very nice Rod. First your datagridview, than your sprite editor and now this program. Nice work.
Maybe you can add stuff about aligning and window options, for example border off or maximize button off, etc, with the stylebits.
Happy programming.
Greetings, Marco
