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
