Article #1876: Improved FLUID and Docs

Created at 02:20 Jul 15, 2023 by matt

In my efforts to make FLUID into a really cool and friendly tool despite its complex job, I added a few new cool features.

Check out the docs at https://fltk.gitlab.io/fltk/fluid.html.

  • the settings dialogs have now all been consolidated into a single efficient setting panel
  • interactive design with grid and snapping never worked very well, so I replaced it with a layout system that know about about gaps, grids, distances and much more, with presets that can be saved, included, exported and shared
  • we have now a hatched overlay that shows overlapping and out of bounds widgets, so you don't need to worry that your design may not work as expected
  • the Fl_Flex widget is now fully supported
  • and lots of little UI improvements
