UI Editor is AGE's tool for designing and building graphical user interfaces (GUIs) from AGE components. It allows you to design and build widgets and windows using on-screen forms using the same widgets that will be used in your application. Components created with UI Editor can be previewed so that you can ensure that they will look and feel exactly as you intended.
