Wow, it has been about 10 months since the last release of Redy. I have made a few improvements since then because i have been using it at work for some utility programs, but i haven't had time to add all the features i have planned for the next release.
I am finally working on Redy again. The new features expected to be in the next release, hopefully by the end of this year, are:
- Application config library to remember window position and size, user preferences, etc. (almost done)
- Tabs widgetclass
- Slider widgetclass (almost done)
- Dropdown lists (almost done)
- Optional borders and titles on containers
- Improved divider behavior
- Proper keyboard controls (Alt-key combos for menu items, tabbing between widgets, Function keys, hotkeys, etc.)
- Toolbars and panels that can be docked/undocked to the main app window or tool windows by the user, and panels can be separated by moveable dividers or arranged in tabs (layout will be remembered by the config file)
- Subscribe/Publish messaging system, which is very important in making a large application more organized and modular (DONE)
- Word wrapping in textbox widgetclass (DONE)
- Syntax-highlighting text editor library (almost done)
- Formatted hypertext library (almost done)
- RedyCode application
- New demos and documentation
More features are planned, but those will have to wait until another release
