Hi Steve,
This initiative gets a major thumbs up from me. In my opinion, form design can be the most time consuming part of a KiXtart/KiXforms project and anything that can accelerate the development cycle is a godsend. I have tested both versions and have the following feedback:
1. A grid and "snap to grid" feature would be very useful, and ultimately help users to design "tidier" forms.
2. Is it possible to implement dynamic positioning and resizing for all form objects?
3. Is is possible to make the object properties ListView editable rather than opening another edit parameter form?
4. The Big One - How about putting the form that is being designed inside another window that in turn has a toolbar with all the selectable controls displayed on it. That way you would alleviate the issue of having form design controls on the form that is actually being designed. I hope that makes sense.
Anyway, this is a great initiative Steve and I sincerely hope that you are able to develop this utility to the full. I know that there will be a lot of KF users who will be thanking you.
Kind regards,
Rod. [ 18. March 2003, 10:45: Message edited by: rclarke ]
