Flexible GUI

[ivmartel]

In order to really be flexible, all GUI elements must be defined at startup. Tools should only update it and not destroy and recreate as it is done now.

for GUI elements you are right it should be predefined
also
i suggest you use canvas framework instead of pure js

[ivmartel]

Not sure I get it, dwv uses HTML5 canvas, see the index.html files. Or do you mean something else?

[mohamedsharaf]

i mean you use javascript canvas framework this will help in many things and adding features will be easier
and more developer can contribute in development also will simplify codes

in my point of view the best is http://kineticjs.com/

look at this three links
https://github.com/ericdrowell/KineticJS/wiki
http://www.html5canvastutorials.com/kineticjs/html5-canvas-drag-and-drop-an-image-tutorial/
http://www.html5canvastutorials.com/kineticjs/html5-canvas-save-stage-as-json-string-with-kineticjs/

also there is another frameworks like easejs

for GUI the mobile version which uses jquery mobile is great but it has to be in html page instead gui.js
and allow boss desktop events and mobile ones like click (not just touch events)

you can make mobile version as the main and enhance interface using twitter bootstrap
making one version for boss desktop and mobile (responsive design )

i can help in development but just let me know the plan or how i can help
