Using AUI in the demo

[Andrea Gavana]

HI Robin,

    I believe that most of the users will say: "I prefer the native
look of the demo". It is an understandable point of view, but I don't
see how introducing wxAUI (or CustomTreeCtrl, even if it's not there)
will modify the sense of native look and feel.
The only thing wxAUI does less natively (but not far from it), is to
draw the pane title and icons. Frame managers like wxAUI are fairly
common on Windows (native one, I mean), and I am pretty sure GTK and
Mac have their own.
I honestly admit that it looks better than before: most of the effect
is given by the tree icons and menu icons, which in my opinion looked
a bit "raw" before.
Then, wheter the user close the wxAUI panes or not, there is still a
menu that allows you to restore the original GUI configuration.
All in all, I honestly can't see how the demo looks less native than before.

Andrea.
