Drac's Irrlicht GUI Designer *Official Thread*

This thread will be dedicated to the Irrlicht GUI Designer, who's creation was spurred by a post of Melchiors. It is written in the .NET Framework, so you will need the .NET runtime to use this.
.NET Framework Link:

This is basically a gui designer similar to the ones used in Visual Basic, (though not as advanced yet.)
Current Version: RC2
Supported Irrlicht GUI types:
EditBox
ComboBox
StaticText
Button
ListBox
CheckBox
Image
Other Features:
Insertion of code into a template file.
Realtime code generation.
Save code window to a file.
...and much more.
More to come!

If you would like to come up with a splash screen/logo graphic that'd be great. The DracSoft logo is on my home page and is pretty simple.

Took longer than I thought to get some free time but I'm currently adding support for multiple combo-boxes and am now working on adding many more gui elements. Keep checking in...

Just a quick fix update to resolve issues of the editor putting a ' instead of " for listitems in the generated code.

Ok beta 2 is out, BIG changes:
Added a grid
Snap-to the grid
Click N Drag creation of elements
This is a big update, and makes fast, easy and quality GUI creation a reality for the Irrlicht engine.
Because of the nature of this update (double buffering for the grid/drag rectangle) there is potential for a slowdown on older systems. There is the option to disable the grid and rectangle. (Note you CAN use the snap-to without the grid showing).
Because of this potential please post your system specs and your performance (smooth, adequate, slow, awful). This will help me out alot so please test this one!
Coming soon:
Custom grid/snapto size
Custom minimum element size

RC1 is up, please test it. I'll release the final .NET version soon. This way I can get to work on rewriting it for Linux.
