Banker 175 Posted October 11, 2016 Hey so im looking for something that i can use to create GUIs for my script. I know NetBeans offers one but i much prefer to use Eclipse for my development, and NetBeans is a complete last option if nothing else works. I'm looking for something like Visual Studio but for Java instead. Thanks.

Hashtag 9082 Posted October 11, 2016 Do not make GUIs they are annoying. Just kidding, use Windowbuilder plugin for Eclipse. I am not sure if there is one that works with Eclipse Neon.

As long as it works ill be fine, ill tidy the code up myself its just positioning each element of it that i really cba with.
Notorious 342 Posted October 11, 2016 If you want a good GUI, write it yourself. It not only helps you learn, it also lets you customize it far more than if you were to use a builder. Also as someone who used GUI builders for scripts a long time ago; I would still recommend you learn to write them by hand, instead of letting other people/programs do it for you.
Dreamlicker 750 Posted October 11, 2016 GUIs suck to make if you aren't familiar with all of the components, use Eclipse's window builder instead note: Once you know the components/layout stuff, it's much faster to make it yourself.
