Re^6: Disable Control in Win32::GUI

Thanks for the good information. I was unaware that there was that much to it. I will give your fourth option some thought/research/testing.

As for the why, I have been playing around with a wysiwyg gui designer. It's mainly for my own education and practice. In a previous life, I did a lot of VB programming and really liked the IDE so I thought I'd take a stab at creating one for perl and win32::gui. I know this has been done but I learn the most while re-creating the wheel.

Again, thanks for taking the time to reply and supply useful information .

It sounds like you are aware of The GUI Loft, so I suggest you take a look at how it's done in the Design window (drawing on a Graphic control). /J	[reply]

Thanks. I am aware of the Loft and tried it out some time ago when I had absolutely no understanding of Win32::GUI. I felt that I had to learn to hand code the windows or I would never get very far. That is what prompted me to try this now that I know at least a little about Win32::GUI. I've been trying not to look at the Loft so that I may find my own way and learn more. I may find very soon that I am in over my head and dig into your code.	[reply]
