Subject: RE: GISList: GUI standards when using spatial / geodata
Date:  06/20/2002 01:29:12 PM
From:  Josie Tabarez




Yes, we attempt to conform to Microsoft's standards...but the application we
are developing is not notepad,word, excel type of tools...it's a
geotechnical, engineering, cad type of software. Microsoft does not address
spatial/geodata objects.

As a practical matter, if you would like your software to be most usable by
hundreds of millions of people there is only one GUI standard: Microsoft's.
Your software should use Windows GUI conventions whenever possible.
Microsoft publishes a lot of material on their web sites and with their
development tools (MSDN, etc.) that is very helpful.

Cheers,

Dimitri
