I''m sure this question has probably been asked here before, but with no ability to search the forums, I have so far not found an answer. I just finished reading the articles that Mason did on creating a basic GUI in DirectX. Before I go through the trouble of coding one up since it seems he did not release any source code, are there any simple and relatively free DirectX GUI class libs out there for creating a basic GUI in DirectX? (LGPL or freeware would be best)

Ummm search doesn''t work dude.

I have some GUI code that I wrote about two years ago - using DX7... if you would like to take a look at it, just send me an email. I will not claim that it is the best GUI code - but it works. And looking at my code may allow you to make enhancements to mine or it may spark your imagination to design a better system.

Yeah, I''d like to have a look at any code for GUIs under DirectX. I''ve started working on my own, but would like to see how others may have done it.

To everyone that sent me an email requesting my gui code I want to appologize... I''ve been knee deep busy as of late and haven''t had a chance to zip and mail the source. I will make room this weekend to get this out to those that have requested it.


Thanks
