About MaxGUI

MaxGUI ($30 USD - digital version)

An included sample demonstrating Drag & Drop

A collection of gadgets as displayed on MacOS X

The BlitzMax editor itself is a MaxGUI application.

Overview

MaxGUI is a BlitzMax Module that allows you to create native graphical user interfaces for your BlitzMax games and applications.

MaxGUI provides a broad range of 'widgets', including:
  • Windows
  • Menus
  • Buttons
  • Sliders
  • Tabbers
  • Tree views
  • List boxes
  • Text fields
  • Text areas
  • Canvas gadgets for realtime graphics
  • HTML views

Flexible Event Handling

MaxGUI provides a flexible event system that allows you to handle events synchronously (when the system becomes idle) or asynchronously (as soon as the event occurs).


Easy to use Canvas rendering

Graphics 'canvases' provide the ability to render Max2D or 'raw' OpenGL graphics into a window.


Multiplatform support

MaxGUI has been designed from the ground up for multiplatform support, and MaxGUI programs can be compiled for Windows, MacOS X and Linux. Just like the BlitzMax license - buy MaxGUI once and run your programs on all three platforms!

BlitzPlus compatability

MaxGUI provides many of the same easy to use Gadget based commands found in BlitzPlus. BlitzPlus users will immediately feel at home with MaxGUI and it's commands that open the door to building cross platform desktop applications in BlitzMax.
