    Thought this was interesting. Maybe as a possible alternative to WebDialogs, wxSU, etc (although I haven't read enough yet to know for sure.)

      It requires an installation of the GTK and the server. I presume an user would have to do it on his own, which is not ideal.

      I will let someone else try it. I have tried wxSU and I am not happy with the outcome so far.

      I hope one day we will have common GUI Library(Libs) fully working both on Win, Mac and .. Linux.

        It is no different than wxSU in that respect.

        It appears to work, but SketchUp "white screens" while the dialog is open, but it comes alive when the dialog is closed.

        Probably no surprise for folks who know about such things.

          One can include wxSU inside a zip and no installation is necessary - user just copies the files to plugins. With GTK you need full installation, am I right?

          In other words the GTK window is modal. Is there a way to make it non-modal?

            I've used Tkinter with Python. It gives excellent results in about half the code wx requires. It's set of widgets isn't as extensive as wx, but it's much better than JavaScript's tiny set.
