Graphics Builder:
Editing and Creating New Widgets
 Any GLG
Widget is simply a drawing that may be loaded into any
GLG application using one of the provided GLG Libraries
(Java, C/C++, C#, JavaScript, etc.) and animated with
real-time data.
The GLG Graphics
Builder is a graphical editor for editing widgets as
well as creating new widgets. Any widget drawing may be
loaded into the GLG Graphics Builder to customize the widget by
editing its resources. A modified widget drawing may be
saved into a file to create a custom version of the widget.
The Graphics Builder's Run mode may be used to prototype a widget's
run-time behavior by animating it with either simulated or
real data. The run command provides numerous data
prototyping options.
New custom widgets may be created from scratch
using the Builder and added to the Builder's palettes. The
Graphics Builder may also be used to create elaborate dashboards which
combine several graph, meter and dial widgets in one
drawing.

Generating Chart
Printouts
The Graphics Builder may be used as a tool to generate chart
print-outs for various projects.
To create a graph printout, load a desired chart or graph
from the Builder's graph palette, edit its colors, titles
and other resources, then use the Builder's Run command to fill the
graph with your data. The -script
and -datafile
options of the run command may be used to take graph data
from a file.
