Hi Yanjie,

FLTK is an open source toolkit, just like ITK or VTK,

Following the same spirit of Open Source software you
can get support from the community of users that have
confronted problems similar to yours.

You may want to join the newsgroups of the FLTK
community and post your questions and concerns there.

Please see the link

Regards,


  Luis

Personally I think FLTK is easier to learn and use, and I can build a more beautiful interface with it, however if a problem in using FLTK come out, it is not very easy to get help for me. To get help about MFC, I can refer to MSDN, but to get help about FLTK, I have been having to refer to the source code of FLTK. Would you please tell me how I can solve the problem?
