I am using win32 api to architect a level editor for 3d game. But making gui elements with win32 is a disaster...!Though adding dialogs and buttons are easy. But i want to add a floatable toolbar, which is on left/right side of the main window that I can put a FORMVIEW dialog in it. I don't need those standard toolbar-buttons, I just want to put my own child windows in it! I am sick for it now, and appreciate any helps. [Edited by - michaelj on June 11, 2006 10:36:17 PM]

And I wonder if there're some win32 gui library in pure c++? I don't like MFC!

Those two are a refreshing alternative to the Win32 'trenches'.
