So far so good with my plugin! Thanks for everyone's help so far.
Right now, I'm working on the interface. I want to do something like an on-screen keyboard or maybe something like an "enter your initials" screen on a video game.
Anyway, I'm working in the render() member function of my class that inherits IMenuTask. Obviously I could just use all the various Drawing functions and key trapping functions and cobble together my own interface. I get the feeling though that there's a way to simplify this.
So basically, what's the best way to go about drawing an interface with various lists and text inputs and what not, and how do skins fit into this picture?
Thanks,
Matt
