When you use those top-of-the-line VC++ gui builders, where a right-click on a widget brings up a submenu listing EVERY attribute of the widget, (from bindings, callbacks, colors, etc), the GUI-builder can be very effective. BUT.... all the free ones(and most opensource) I see have very limited sub-menus. I suppose eventually we will get one that is cheap, widely available, and works on all platforms. We all dream of such a programming tool, but it is still elusive. I won't pay to find out either, they all promise alot of features, but when you get to the nitty gritty, they disappoint. ;-) One or two month trial periods is not enough. Who is going to devote a month full time to testing a gui builder, knowing you have to pay if you don't decide fast enough.
I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. Cogito ergo sum a bum
