Well for the moment a diagram drawing tool (Class diagrams/State machines/...), however the end goal (in a time and space far far away) is a CASE tool. So for the moment I need a visualization (provided by Roassal), some way to display hierarchical/tree data, forms, popups and such (basically what I mentioned in previous post).

Hi Peter,
Spec is a user interface framework that is meant to be able to create any kind of user interface. On the other hand Glamour is meant for browser-like user interfaces where there is a flow from one element to another. So the answer is: it depends on what you want to do.
Could you tell us what is it that you are trying to build?

Hi,
what is the recommended framework for building UIs? As I understand it Spec should be able to handle pretty much anything, however Glamour has quite a lot of nice features and was recommended here http://forum.world.st/Roassal-amp-Spec-td4690745.html as a higher-level abstraction framework (albeit the issue here was mostly Roassal which as I understand is a non issue since there is Roassal2Spec package). However I haven't seen things like forms (text inputs, checkboxes, (radio)selects, buttons) or popups (yes/no confirmations, prompts) made in Glamour so I am unsure whether it is possible.
Thanks, Peter
