[ANN] tmCONTROL - Custom Interface Components for LiveCode Developers

[Scott Rossi]

If you've been using LiveCode for any length of time, you know that 2011 has
been the year of custom controls.  So in honor of 11/11/11, I'm happy to
announce that tmCONTROL, a custom control suite for LiveCode, is now
available from Tactile Media.

tmCONTROL is a collection of interface components built exclusively for
LiveCode users who want to give their stacks a more customized user
experience. Using custom controls is a way to brand your application with a
look-and-feel that makes it stand out from the rest.

As a LiveCode developer, you may not have the time, the ability, or even the
desire to create your own custom controls.  You just know you want something
different from the standard controls provided by LiveCode.  Well, tmCONTROL
is that "something different".

tmCONTROL is more than just a set of pretty buttons -- it's an evolving
architecture developed to support a wide range of components and functions.
The best part is, the components work virtually the same way as the LiveCode
controls you already know and use.  Just drag and drop the component you
need from the palette into your stack and script it.

Plus, the component sets are designed to work together thematically in your
applications.  No need to hunt down bits and pieces to scrape together the
look you want.  Most every control you need to create a complete experience
for your application is available in one package.  And previews of the
themes are provided to help inspire your development.

The current set of collections includes:
DESKTOP
Push Buttons
Radio Buttons
Tab Controls
Checkboxes
Label Fields
Scrolling Fields
Panels
Sliders
Spinners
Progress Bars
Scrollbars
Accordion Controls
Backgrounds

iOS
Push Buttons
Nav Buttons
Segmented Controls
Switches
Tables
Sliders
Progress Bars
Toolbars
Backgrounds

All together, tmCONTROL includes five desktop themes, two iOS themes, a set
of SmartControls, and a set of accordions, totaling over 100 components. On
top of all that, dedicated editors are provided so you can customize the
components to your needs.

tmCONTROL is available in 2 levels: a PRO level, which includes all
collections, SmartControls, and support from Tactile Media; and a BASIC
level that includes the core architecture only, and allows you to choose
only the themes you want on an a-la-carte basis.

The PRO level is priced at $199, but is available for 11 days at an
introductory price of $149.  The BASIC level costs $59, with an introductory
price of $39, plus the cost of one or more themes of your choice for $29
each.

Thanks for your time, and I look forward to seeing what you create with the
tools.
