I plan the radically chnage the next version of dxgui.
It will be using a modified version of DXStdCtrls, which will implement the run-time version, were the design-time version will be some creative components which will provide the DXstdCtrls with a minimal overhead. I plan to start at the end of this week, and it will probaly take a few weeks to get going.
One feature i do wihci to add is the ability to customise were it loads the menu profiles form. The first edition will only allow for the menus to be loadde from a form but latter i''ll add support for the latest version of pakit, a file archive/management lib for Delphi.
