   Easy GUI?
  I think I want to make a recording application like audacity.I want it to be a window application (no full screen), so doing the GUI in directX will be not efficient.However, I dont know any GUI beside directX.I think you can simply draw your GUI in visual studio and it will produce you code for that GUI.So how can I do that and will it be easy to do so for a GUI like the one in audacity.That is, I will need to draw sound wave graphs and etc.I am in the dark here.Can you guide me to the best solution for this issue?Thanks in advance.   
  If the GUI is what you are primarily worried about making then i would try C# or Java, however i cannot advise on the making and editing of audio in said languages.Hope that helps,Dave;  My programming language is CPP only.;  Get a copy of VS2005, and a book.;  In that case you are going to have to dev the gui in WIN32. You could try wxwidgets, a wrapper for the API, i've used it and it makes it easy.Try that,Dave   ;Quote:Original post by Dave...You could try wxwidgets...x2. Since audacity is/was written with wx this would be a safe card. If you get stuck you could always look at the source - it is open source :)   ;Quote:Original post by DaveIn that case you are going to have to dev the gui in WIN32.
