You may also want to check out the open-source Camino Project at http://www.mozilla.org/projects/camino/ They have implemented a superb example of this style of preferences.

The main dialog of the app I am porting (from M$ to Mac) uses a rather extensive "Tab View" to show/hide panels of options. As a user clicks on a tab, the appropriate panel comes to the top of the stack and displays the controls within that panel (list boxes, check boxes, text fields, etc.). I would like to have a more OSX-compliant feel when I port the app. More specifically, I was thinking about mirroring the cosmetics and effects within the OSX System Preferences window (how it resizes and shows/hides large areas of options).

Could someone tell me how they accomplished building the System Preferences dialog? Maybe what controls were used? How the resizing effect happens (if it's automatically or manually coded)? Ya' know, that kinda stuff.

Thanx,
Ryan
