IUP - Portable User Interface

To Do

General

  • Organize controls and driver initialization and management, improve the possibility of implementing new drivers.
  • A gtk driver in Linux.
  • A MacOS X native driver using Carbon.
  • A wxWidgets driver?
  • A tutorial section in the documentation. Add more complete samples.
  • To allow IupShow after a IupPopup.
  • To show a border for visual location of VBOX, HBOX and FILL. Can be a dialog attribute. Or most likely a function to display the layout.
  • Change all comments in the source code to english. Add comments to the internal includes for Doxygen.
  • Drag&Drop between controls or dialogs in the same application.
  • Allow the functions IupAppend and IupDetach to be used for dynamic creation of menus, IupSbox, IupCbox and IupTabs.
  • Buttons with image and text simultaneously.
  • Support for RGBA images. Support for alpha in colors for images?

Motif

  • Support for MDI.
  • Reduce flicker when dialog is resized.
  • Callback SHOW_CB is not called when the dialog is hidden because of PARENTDIALOG.
  • Some warnings in the SunOS when using the OpenGL canvas.
  • When another Window Manager is running the IupPopup disable the other windows, but they can be placed in front of the popup window if PARENTDIALOG is not used. Also in this case, some window decorations do not work.
  • The menu does not inherit attributes from the dialog like in the Windows driver.
  • Sometimes the control initialization is incomplete and its size is miscalculated. To solve this call IupRefresh(dialog). This will fix the sizes.

IupControls

  • Move iupMask to the mail library using attributes instead of functions.
  • A vertical IupGauge?
  • IupSbox can be resized above the maximum size so some controls go to outside the dialog area at right or bottom. In fact thi is part of the dynamic layout default reposition of controls inside the dialog. See the IupRefresh function. The IUP layout does not have a maximum limit only a minimum.

IupMatrix

  • When removing a line, if it has the focus an invalid call to enteritem_cb/leave_item_cb will occur for the removed cell.
  • Lines and columns are not unmarked when clicking on the title.

IupTree

  • Review IupTree redering. Improve render attributes like background color. Define minimum size based on tree nodes. New callback mode. Change internal list to real tree?
  • Images with variable sizes for nodes.

IupLua

  • Optimize callback calling in Lua 5. This affects some IupMatrix callbacks in Lua: VALUE_CB, FGCOLOR_CB and BGCOLOR_CB.

New Controls

  • IupPlot to plot a XY graph
  • A detachable toolbar?
  • Image Listbox
  • Grid Container (to distribute elements in a grid)
  • RTF editor in Windows
  • HTML viewer?
