I need a tool that will allow extremely rapid prototyping of a GUI that allows users be able to drag & drop boxes containing certain functionality and connect said boxes to define information flows within a program.  If you've ever used the old Khoros / Cantata image & signal processing suite you know exactly what I'm after.  All of the underlying code will be completely custom, I just hate writing non-standard GUIs.  Anyone?

I see that there are at least 50 geeks, dorks, and software guys here and not one of you has a useful suggestion?  Glad I didn't ask a trivial question.   :twobirds: :billypopcorn:

Yeah, well, not every geek, dork, or software guy concerns himself with GUI prototyping.  Have fun with that extremely awesome and creative endeavor.

I don't either, that's why I want a package that's already done it for me.  I'd prefer to get on with building the $10k/seat (or so my marketing guys tell me) product.  :curse:

GUI building is my favorite part of building a program. The coding is the part that sucks.  :ohno:

If you ever need some decent cash, there are a ton of upstarts in Boulder that need UI designers/builders. The one that's a floor under where I work is about to be bought out by Google.

Kougs would never leave Olathe and his "badass apartment" for Boulder. Isn't that right, Kougs?

    The very best.
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

We all know there's been a conspiracy. Only the failures have been recorded.
We all pay too much attention to Icarus, and not enough to his father.

A "GUI" is a Graphical User Interface.

Not true at all.

I already rescinded on my original comment awhile back, but they won't leave me alone.  :-[
