Guest Travis Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 I started with a dialog maker and then looked at the code and looked at the help file. Now I make them from scratch but I hate making dialogs ... I mean on one hand its nice, but ... its tedious. I use a lot of math with the layout. If a control starts at 2 and is 30 pix long, the end of it is 32, so the control next to it will typically start at 34. What really taught me the most is looking at other dialogs, then looking at the code, then writing it for myself with the help manuals. You are free to use my mdx dialogs as a guide. I'll send you my IM addy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gate Keeper Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 GD5 was massive because of the dialogs... Anyways, dialogs are always going to be more time consuming and more demanding. They do look pretty, but if you don't have the time, you should really just stick to basics like menus and that, as it would faster to code, and less troublesome prefecting it.

Guest Lynx Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 is there anyone from the UK who can teach me dialog making (basic) .. as the two replys iv had and im very grateful to them are from the usa and they are 7hours behind the UK so it makes it that bit more difficult for me to get in touch with them at the right time of day .. seem im never going to get to learn .. all i need is to learn the basic's of dialog making and im sure i will be able to progress from there ... to the two that put me on your messenger again i will say thankyou.
