SMX is trucking along nicely, but i've yet to fill a couple of holes in the library - namely an integrated textarea component and a problem-free tabmanager. It does have a lot of other stuff of immediate use tho, and a not-unlike MXML layout markup that i call *ahem* SMXML. Plus i am constantly using the set in my own applications so i can say with some confidence that it's pretty stable.
It can also handle resizing without a hitch, in fact i purposly built it with that in mind after getting tired of the editors changing the template sizes days before project completion.
here's the last application i built with it:
I would actually be really interested in providing a new gui for xray as i'm trying to push SMX development in that direction anyway - more desktop app interface. I would have to finish my menu component and do the modal dialog thing, but they wouldn't be difficult jobs considering i was planning those additions anyway. Just need something to work towards...
Also did i mention the entire set compiles to less than 40K? (omitting embedded fonts) :)
