BWToolkit Description

A free and open source plugin for Interface Builder 3 that contains commonly used UI elements and other useful objects Using the objects available in the BWToolkit is as simple as dragging them from the library to your canvas or document window.“No Code” Preferences Windows and Tabbed SheetsWith the Selectable Toolbar item in this plugin, you’ll be able to create preferences windows and tabbed sheets without writing a line of code. Using BWToolkit to create a preferences window or a tabbed sheet is radically simpler than conventional means. You don’t have to write a controller class or fiddle with plists and multiple nib/xib files. It’s drag and drop.Transparent ControlsBWToolkit contains a suite of controls for transparent windows (or HUD windows). Provided controls include a button, pop-up button, check box, slider, text field, text view, table view, and a check box cell for a table view. If you find yourself needing a much wider array of controls than the ones available here, a standard panel may be more appropriate for your particular interface.Button BarsThe plugin includes an anchored button bar, anchored buttons, and unanchored buttons. An anchored button bar is one that is placed directly below a view (in other words, anchored to that view). Anchored button bars often appear at the bottom left of windows below source lists (like in Mail.app), below a table view with padding below the bar (like the Network pref pane), or run all the way across the bottom of the window (like in AppZapper). The anchored button bar library item handles all three of these modes.Bottom BarsWith this plugin, you’ll be able to add a bottom bar to a window and it will appear on your canvas. This makes sizing and placement of controls on or around the bottom bar a trivial exercise. There are four bottom bars to choose from: mini size, small size, regular size, and one for sheets.NOTE: BWToolkit is distributed and licensed under the terms of the BSD License.
