Dean Roddey Wrote:BTW, there's a couple 5.0 wish list threads in the beta discussions area. Mostly they have to be GUI oriented since the point of 5.0 is primarily to completely rewrite the UI. I'm well along on getting the underlying windowing framework rewritten in terms of the standard Window controls, throwing away my custom ones (sigh...)
I'm working on the first test programs, my own resource editor and then the log monitor program, to test out the work. So pretty soon here I'll be starting on the CQC UI programs. And I'm making other fundamental architectural changes that will be VERY useful in making the product more consistent and maintainable.
I'll check out those threads, and add anything I think might be useful.

Something like that. I was thinking something like Expression Web maybe.

Dean - If you are interested I can send a screen shot of what I believe is one of the best template editors I have come across. Its made by ABB for their HMI's, but the flexability is awesome and presentation and workflow if rather good as well. Not perfect, but you may be able to gleam some ways of ding stuf in the IV.
