This is from accessibility features. Enhanced contrast and increased font sizes are important for people with low vision. This can be introduced as either reading system settings or a separate toggle to any of the GUI-s.

In principle, it should be possible to have separate "enhanced contrast" theme without special casing every single widget.

Ensuring that GUI framework Input Method Editor is important for multiple languages. This means being able to integrate with environment input facilities.

As a test:

• CRUD should allow using IME to input text.

This is also needed for proper #32 support.

Hi @eugenkiss!

I just noticed that your website is down since a couple of days, which unfortunately also lead to https://eugenkiss.com/projects/thesis.pdf not being available anymore.

Would it be possible to mirror the document somewhere else?

Nowadays pretty much every GUI has to be localized. This is actually rather difficult, because simple GUI libs use the text as identifier (which becomes impossible if localized) and complex GUIs are further more complicated.

Something like a localized calculator (latin, arabic, rome, chinese, japan number systems and operation names) could be a nice showcase of the GUI library capabilities.

hello!
link "Kotlin/TornadoFX — source" at page https://eugenkiss.github.io/7guis/implementations/ - follows to 404 page!

Every good, complete ui toolkit needs to be able to render a tree view. It would be great to add a task that incorporates one.

Hi, Eugen.

I want to participate with this contribution in Lide framework.

Can you include it in this portal, please?

Thanks.

Hi,
The pdf link in the site is not working..

When scrolling table vertical initially it is working fine, but after the height of screen it is mismatching slowly.

Speech to text / Text to speech can be quite important for accessibility. This could be an extension to any example that contains text input.

This would test how well GUI-s integrate with accessibility features.

For all examples, except circle drawing:

• Speech-To-Text: It should be possible to interact with the app by voice alone.
• Text-To-Speech: It should be possible to navigate the app blindfolded.

I'd suggest adding some sort of manual drag and drop test to the guis as well.

The reason is that it requires getting positional information from two different objects which have no inherent relationship as well as dealing with strong speed requirements from event -> render.

Note that Felleisen has implemented the tasks here:

Since the whole content of this repository including github pages was moved we should do at least one of the following:

• disable GitHub pages for this repository (https://eugenkiss.github.io/7guis/) completely
• add a note with a link to each generated page, that content was moved to https://7guis.github.io/7guis/
• use canonical urls (https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/consolidate-duplicate-urls)
• add a redirection from each page to https://7guis.github.io/7guis/, this could be done in a single .htaccess file

The reason for this is dublicate content and to not confuse visitors landing on this page.

And BTW: I would prefer option 4) since this would inform google & co correctly, that the page was moved.

site/src/containers/Implementations.js (live version) has a broken link to Phix.

I think that the author just made all of the repo private since I don't see anything on their BitBucket page.

Are there any plans to update the website. It seems last deployment was more than 2 years ago.
thanks

It may be a good idea to have some sort of honorable mentions section for tasks that don't fall totally within the 7GUIs vision but that can be good exercises.

Datepickers seem like a good candidate for evaluating GUI frameworks because or how complex yet simple they can be.

Some problems faced when writing them include:

• The two way communication between the text field and the popup.
• The configuration of multiple allowed time spans.
• "Replacing" the popup when the user clicks on the year to show the list of years.
• Not all date times are valid: some never happen because of daylight saving time and others happen twice.

I was thinking about a benchmark that includes some trickier points that a lot of UI libraries do badly at, but which is important for large apps, and I don't think it's necessarily evaluated here. Namely, I'm talking about reusing, aggregating, and controlling dynamic collections of components.

Phase 1: Create a countdown timer

Properties:

• Buttons for start/stop and reset
• Take a duration as a parameter
• Counts down to 0 and stops

Evaluations:

• Managing states (running, paused, stopped, reset, etc)
• Asynchronous data handling
• Reusability -- you should be able to manually duplicate the timer in the window with different initial durations

Phase 2: A timer collection.

Properties:

• A button for "add timer" and a field for "duration" that adds a new timer onto the page with the given duration
• A button for "reset all" that resets all timers and stops them, and shows "start all" if all buttons are reset. If any one timer starts, then the button is changed back to "reset all"
• Some text that displays the total elapsed seconds of all timers so far, counting up.

Evaluations:

• You should reuse your code from Phase 1 without modifying or refactoring any of it (this is important).
• How well the system can control and aggregate data from a dynamic collection of sub-components

Just a discussion issue, feel free to close or label as you see fit

Great idea but seems dead?

I really like the work you have done and the related work section in the site. May I add a few that I think is relevant?

Dear visitor,

this repository, issue tracker, etc. is abandoned in favor of https://github.com/7guis/7guis . Any activity in this issue tracker, any pull requests, etc. will be ignored.

Looking forward to hearing from you in https://github.com/7guis/7guis .

7guis community

Are you a volunteer? Please tell us in https://github.com/7guis/7guis/issues - there is some nice work to help with 😉.

One of the corners I've seen UI frameworks fail at is multitouch input. Good examples are pinch zoom while pressing buttons or multitrack faders.

This could be included as an extension to Timer or Circle Drawer.

1. The Timer example could have four of those timers side-by-side and it must be possible to modify each independently.
2. Circle drawing could use drag to create a circle and it should be possible to create multiple circles at the same time.
