[size=2]Visual studios express can suck like that, doesn&#39;t allow resource editing. On a side note, look in to forms. You can do C++ or C#, although C# is horrible for graphics. Anywho, here is an example to get you started. And by &quot;top bar&quot; I assume you mean the menu bar.<br /> <br /> [size=2]<br /> [size=2]You can&#39;t use Windows Forms from C++, since it&#39;s a managed API and C++ is a native language. You&#39;d have to use C++/CLI; they are not the same thing. Your assertion about C# being &quot;horrible&quot; for graphics is pretty much wrong too.

[size=2]I wanna make a game, however, i want to be able to edit it fast and efficiently. I was gonna make a construction set, however, my microsoft studios doesnt support resource editing, so i kinda just have to view the code and write inside of it. What are some of the functions i could use in order for me to add to the top bar (other then about and quit). Ive gotten a brief idea , but its only because of my method of just edit the code to see what happens haha. <br /> [size=2]<br /> [size=2]Nothing about .rc files and the raw Win32 API is going to be &quot;fast and efficient&quot; when it comes to getting yourself editing tools. If you&#39;re going to use C++ you might want to take a look at a higher level GUI toolkit, like wxWidgets. Alternatively you can write your editing tools in another language that&#39;s better suited to the task, like C# (where you can take advantage of the aforementioned Windows Forms API, which does have a visual designer available in VS).

[size=2]I guess it depends on your definition of horrible.<br /> <br /> [size=2]<br /> [size=2]Not really. You should back up these kinds of assertions with something; this is a technical site after all.
