    Hi, hope this is the right place for my issue (didn't find any other matching forum for this) I"m trying to find - unsuccessfully some arcticles over the web on how to make a correct GUI details view for a desktop application (especially using WPF). for examples, if i have a screen of editable data and, basic and advanced. should the advanced be in another dialogm or all on the same screen (maybe hidden). maybe replace the panel it self. I haven't found best-practices about subjects like that. Thanks Yanai

      There's no one right answer. Not even Microsoft keeps to ine technique. You could use a separate dialog or a TabControl. You could have a dialog that expands to show more controls. There was a memorable program that had a sliding panel that covered the "advanced" controls and even a little slide-out drawer.

        Thanks, Isn't there any source for common practices? GUI has evolved a lot in the past 10 years and i would really think there will be a source for dos and don'ts, ground rules or something like that
