Yay, GUI objects can now move nicely. I'm happy. Next up, I want to modify my tecture manage slightly so I can fit irregular objects into it (E.g. a 200x150 texture gets turned into 32x32 blocks and stuffed in one of those sheets). I'm not sure how well that'll work, or if it's worthwhile, but we'll see. I want to create windows that aren't a power of two width and height.

After that (Or before), I want to be able to drag windows around, and click on objects. That'll probably be the same code actually, just have it so a window responds to dragging, and a button doesn't.

I also need Z-order for windows, that's fairly important. Aaannd, I want a nicer window background. But my art [Read: MS Paint] skills suck, so I might just use an XP screenshot for testing. If I can get everything behaving exactly like standard Windows controls, I'll be a happy chappy.

So, my todo list, with approximate times. 1 day is about 2.5 hours (travelling into work and lunch)

• Clickable/draggable windows / widgets (1 day)


• Different sized windows (Sprite manager code) (2-3 days)


• Z-ordering for windows (< 1 day)


• Pretty windows (< 1 day)

Not much there, I know. I can't be bothered writing any more.
