Hi Everyone,

Just had some quick questions to point me in the right directions for creating a tool set window.

-Any good resources on how to develop a GUI, other than help docs?
-build GUI native in C4D or in another app(ie. Komodo)?

I know for Maya it is often easier to build your UI in another program, just really wanted to know are their major disadvantages if I were to build it inside the script manager?

Ideally also, I would like to have something that when i click on a button it opens inside the attribute editor so it feels like its part of the app itself and keeps a clean look. But, I am not even sure if this is possible with python in C4D. (Not a big issue just being nit picky.)

Thanks

Rick
