Hi Don,<br>
<br>
You can use SharpDevelop<br>
<a href="http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/">http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/</a><br>as a GUI designer. And yes, it is like "VB6" unlike the tools that just generate the UI code once.<br>
<br>
SharpDevelop supports IronPython 2.6 too, and it is much more up-to-date then <a href="http://ironpythonstudio.codeplex.com/">http://ironpythonstudio.codeplex.com/</a>.<br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">A good Visual Designer for IronPython is hard to
find. I was looking for a better GUI designer. I was spoiled by the
VB6 designer, and found the graphics APIs in CPython to be a hassle. I
discovered IronPython and WPF and set out to test them. Visual Studio for
IronPython is not so good. I have so far settled happily on NetBeans
with IronPython and Visual Studio for C#. I generate great graphics in
XAML files in Visual Studio and Kazaml (I stay Pythonic and never
write C# code), read and parse the XAML files with IronPython code, and add
support code. I think M. Foord mentioned doing this somewhere on the
Web. I have experimented in this work mode to design with
difficulty a Python editor with WPF's RichTextBox. Writing a
drag&drop GUI designer is hard. I think someone should take over
development of Visual Studio for IronPython. That's seems a good place to
start, and work it into a Silverlight IDE.</font></div>
