Why put resources into that rather than fixing or improving what you are already offering. Your complaints were noted, feel free to use some other tool. > The other tools are bloated and crap. imo. It makes more sense to just use java. i Just wish the codename one API was closer to the real java. Theres just so much inconsistency and jankyness like it was all just thrown together. Im still going to use codename one. I just hope you guys make polish it. The theme editor is in swing, the gui builder is in the crappy mobile gui. I could go on for days but i wont waste your time. Just focus on the polish rather that start another "new tablet IDE" that no one wants. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CodenameOne Discussions" group.
