Arguably, making a GUI from scratch can be time consuming, but GUI's tend to differ a lot. For example, some games, such as asteroids and other arcade games, need simple centered menus. My new image filtering program has a GUI that emphasizes linking windows and other stuff. It would be hard--in my view impossible--to generalize all the possible needs down to a few classes and have it still be easier to use than an improvised solution. Ian
