Re: [Nanodesigner-developers] Sample GUI Design

[Elie De B. <el...@de...>]

Hello,

As suspected we didn't see much of you first mail, but the link and the
app works fine here. It's basicly what valere did in paintshop written in java
;-).
Anyhow some comments:
* The framework looks nice, do you have any sources on that ? 
* Perhaps put the framework classes in a separate package. 
* Perhaps using the sun java graphics repository for a start: 
http://java.sun.com/developer/techDocs/hi/repository/ should make
the images look more java'ish.


Another design question now,  like you might have noticed, 
adding some simple menu options in MainView without actually doing 
something makes your class huge, now already 300 lines. So why not
make a subpackage 'action' to contain all the menuactions, which can
easily access the main application thru the mvcapplication singleton.

greetings
Elie
