FLTK eye candy?

[janezz55]

I miss examples of eye candy designs of controls, that esthetically talented FLTK users managed to come up with. I remember screenshots of pretty tables, buttons, ... but I've since forgotten the links. Are any such links available?

What sort of stuff are you looking for? 

There's simple widget subclassing, like Greg's "Gel buttons" https://www.seriss.com/people/erco/fltk/Fl_Gel_Tabs and "Matte buttons"  https://www.seriss.com/people/erco/fltk/Fl_Matte_Button examples, and then there's more complex stuff... Like the original ZynAddSubFX and so forth I guess.

I do remember folks posting a list of examples here in the past, so there may be links in the archive - if you can find them!

There is non-daw, but it uses a forked version of Fltk (NTK).

Hello all

https://groups.google.com/g/fltkgeneral/c/dVhbT1zAulQ

Is probably the thread you’re referring to. I think the work in:

https://github.com/roukaour/viz-brain-visualizer

And https://github.com/Rangi42/tilemap-studio

is inspiring. 

There are more pics here:

I have a Rust app inspired by stacer:

I also have a project showcase for projects using the Rust bindings of FLTK (some of the pics I find pretty):

    I'll bet there's lots of new examples by now that I'm not familiar with,
    hoping others can chime in.

    Here's a nice screenshot from a sound tool called "prodatum".
    Good use of subdued colors, and overall some good design sense for layout.

    More info here: http://prodatum.sourceforge.net/

    Here's another sound related app:

    Here's one called Clam that seems to implement a custom node tree:

    ..more details here: https://clam-project.org/screenshots.html

    I myself released an FLTK "node tree" widget some years ago that supports
    multiple in/outputs and a code generator with self-avoiding connection lines.

    Also, there's a project called NTK which appears to be a fork of FLTK with nicer widgets
    wrapped around FLTK, perhaps specializing in audio mixing related widgets:

Mostly custom table controls. FLTK isn't exactly known for beautiful GUI designs, a little inspiration is in order now and then.
