*{{note|XRCnotworks}} Currently, only one dialog resource per XRC file is imported.
 +
 +
=== Features explained ===
 +
 +
==== {{note|Validators}}Validators ====
 +
 +
The aim of the validator concept is to make dialogs very much easier to write. A validator is an object that can be plugged into a control (such as a wxTextCtrl), and mediates between C++ data and the control, transferring the data in either direction and validating it. It also is able to intercept events generated by the control, providing filtering behaviour without the need to derive a new control class.
 +
 +
How to use validators in a RAD that supports this concept: Just add a variable, select the variable and a validator, and the data transfer between variable and control is done for you.
 +
 +
==== {{note|ConditionalUI}}Conditional UI ====
 +
 +
It's the ability to adapt the user interface to the UI guidelines of different platform.
 +
 +
Just mark elements as for one platform (or several), and preview the look for any given platform.
 +
 +
[[Image:Conditional ui.PNG|Example of how it looks on DialogBlocks]]
 +
 +
==== {{note|EventTable}}Event table and handler generation ====
 +
 +
The RAD generates the event tables and empty handlers (including UI update handlers) so you can immediately concentrate on writing code to make the dialog come to life.
 +
 +
It includes a choice of event types for each window, with function name editing.
 +
 +
'''DialogBlocks Event Handler'''
 +
 +
Here DialogBlocks haves the list of event handlers.
 +
 +
The most noticeable feature here is that if you do a double-click on a event, you're transported to the function associated in the code. It's very handy.
 +
 +
[[Image:Event handler dialogblocks.PNG|Event Tables in DialogBlocks]]
 +
 +
'''VisualWx Event Handler'''
 +
 +
Here VisualWx filters the events:
 +
* Base wxWidgets Events
 +
* Component Events
 +
* Windows Events
 +
* VisualWx Events
 +
* Custom Events
 +
 +
[[Image:Event handler visualwx.PNG|Event Tables in VisualWx]]
 +
 +
==== {{note|Bitmaps}}Bitmap support ====
 +
 +
Bitmaps support means that you can import images into your project from a variety of formats and associate them with your static bitmap and bitmap button controls.
 +
 +
You can specify whether the bitmaps will converted into XPM format (the standard format for small bitmaps in wxWidgets) and whether the XPM image will be inserted as inline C++ code, or loaded from a file.
 +
 +
==== {{note|EnglishDesc}}English descriptions ====
 +
 +
English descriptions show a brief description of each element, to help you get used to sizers and also to make it easier to see at a glance the important aspects of your dialog element.
 +
 +
[[Image:Rad english descriptions.PNG|An example of DialogBlocks English descriptions]]
 +
 +
==== {{note|WindowPointers}}Easy access to window pointers ====
 +
 +
The ''easy access to window pointers'' concept means:
 +
 +
Give each window a variable name, and the RAD will add the name to the class declaration, and initialise it to the appropriate window in the implementation.
 +
 +
In XRC mode, the RAD can generate the code to find the window and assign it to the pointer variable.
 +
 +
==== {{note|TemplateControls}}Template controls ====
 +
 +
Template controls are sets of most common widgets together, like an Ok/Cancel pair buttons inside a sizer, being user-definable.
