...i can't find any :P. Is this concept implemented or do i really have to provide an exact location for every label/button/text box that i use?
You put the controls exactly where you'd like them to be. You can, however, move/size controls at runtime.

There are bunches of them. Search for "resizing dialogs" and you should get a bunch of hits.
I was talking about a microsoft team implementation...i saw some resize helpers around here somewhere but none of them do what i need them to do. It's a bit frustrating 'cause when you're developing some huge application with complicated non gui processes, the last thing you want to focus on is layout. And don't talk to me about the Dialog editor that ships with the .net platform...not everything can be done by mouse clicks :(

These days a I make my UIs in HTML using the WebBrowser control. The HTML communicates to the app using
window.external
and the app calls back into the HTML using theIHTMLDocument::get_Script
method.Steve

I was under the impression that creating UIs in that manor saw noticeably poor performance. Care to share your experience? Any pitfalls to be wary of?
I'd love to help, but unfortunatley I have prior commitments monitoring the length of my grass. :Andrew Bleakley:

I've never has any problems with perfromance. IE is pretty snappy and can browse pages way more complicated then and UI I've make without any problems.
