The more I dig into Dotnet the more I get lost.  What I’m exploring is using Dotnet for my UI’s since it has more controls & features.

There are some good tech docs out there and that’s fine once you know where you are going.
My main problem is finding something that is related to what I’ve been doing for years with maxscript.  With maxscript I know what UI elements I have access to and what they look like and how to use them.

Dotnet is not the same except for things that are simple like buttons, checkboxes, ect..

Does anyone have examples or know where to find the simple Dotnet Equivalent:

Slider
Spinner
color picker
pick button

Basically what I’d use with making a Maxscript UI

When I look through this list HERE:

http://www.scriptspot.com/bobo/mxs9/dotNet/DotNetControls.html

I don’t understand or know most of those controls, of course there are no pictures or examples to follow.  Like where’s a simple spinner?

Any help would be great!

Thanks

Slider = TrackBar
Color Picker = ColorDialog
Spinner = NumericUpDown

PickButton, I think this is Max specific

An easy way to learn dotnet controls is to download VB.Net 2008 Express and play around with the controls.
