If I wanted to create a game that made extensive use of buttons and other gui type features, is there any code out there that could save me from re-inventing the wheel?

Thanks,
Diz

do you want to use real win32 gui function - the robk has a blue gui dll that I here works well and will save you alot of trouble.

do you just want to simulate some commands -
heres a menu - for the demo make 2 images face.bmp and icon3.bmp


here are buttons

they handle images for the buttons and mouse over images

Thanks much, I'll give them a try. I don't want my game to look exactly like windows - but it's a gui intense genre so I will need a few windwos type elements.

Footie management in case you were wondering.
