So How Many Modders Actually Use the UI Builder?

[Zonx]

UI Builder for like 95% of my edits. Only the occasional minor tweak gets done with Notepad.

For very complex/long scripts, I occationally work them out in a real scripting tool, then copy/paste them into UIB.

UIB does alot of things for you that would be cumbersome with a script editor. A few examples:

- Manages style references globally, so name changes and style moves propagate to every object referencing the style.

- Includes a handy tool for defining image slices.

- The whole WYSIWYG editor with align and distribute tools makes layout tasks a ton easier.

- The Run feature is great for testing most scripts without needing to log into EQ2. Saves a ton of time.

- Helps ensures your code isn't botched.

Yah its got its annoying aspects, and does take time to get a handle on, but its worth it if you're tweaking more then a handful of files.
