Hi,

Is there any Form Designer application writtin in xbase++ that I can use 
for code generating like XppFD.EXE ?

Why ? Because I want to create my own code from Form Designer.
I had this in my Clipper 5.3b applications to generate Clipper code.

Also any application that can read  resource files (eg. .rc) from 
xbase++ inside.

I am usually spending more time to design my codes after I create screen 
code (.prg ) by using
XppFD.EXE

regards

Nevzat

Are you generating class code or procedural?

I think that Topdown has a FD not sure if source is supplied.

Top-Down Library for Xbase++ has a Form Designer written in Xbase++.
However the code it generates is for calling Top-Down routines.  For
example, if you put a button on the form the generated source code
calls tdPshBtn(...) rather than XbpPushButton.  So it is exclusively
for TD users.

As for changing the generated code, the FD source is not available.
However it is possible to create your own dialog window templates into
which the FD inserts the code for the components.  When you generate
code you are presented with a picklist of all available window
templates, and you can add your customized template to the list.  So
you have full control over the dialog window.  The code for the
components in the window cannot be changed (within FD you can specify
the order in which the component code is generated). The FD help file
has instructions for creating templates.
