Hi there,


I am initially an Architectural Technologist and very interested in coding and software design. I have one year experience how to use Python in Rhino. I am also interested in other part of software development as well, such as User Interface Design. I am wondering what UI librray has been used for Moi but if you know any other popular software package uses mainstream, good looking GUI at Adobe Photoshop, BlueBeam, Archicad, Solidworks, Corel etc that would be interesting to know. I assume they all code in C++. I checked Google about ready to use UIs, but I did not find. I know popular UI packages such as Windows Forms in C#, Tk for Python, JavaFx, Telerik etc. but do not know if software companies in AEC they use a custom coded one or something else.


Thanks, Andras

Hi Andras, MoI uses a custom UI library that is based off of Qt and QtWebKit in particular.

I don't think there is any one single library that is used by all AEC companies, there will be a lot of different ones.

Qt is pretty popular though for C++ based apps that are deployed on multiple different operating systems.
