hi,

look at all the basic GUI apps from the sdk example and try to replicate an animation example for a complex UI ...

but its often good to start with a simple things to know the os better and then start going for complex things...

Hi,

Write something which involves flow of data, some UI invovement, and if possible use of active objects.
What i suggest out of many in the list avaiable is:
A chat application
It depends on u how complex u make this application.
I hope this will give u enough exposure.
If u require any kind of help i'll try to help u out in it.

-
Try Hard Goals, if not acheived then also u'll be much better than other normal in race.

Hi someone,

I'm interesting on this topic since I'm a beginner too. I want to creat one chat GUI application.

I have one question. On the chat interface there shall have one editor for message input and one window for message display. Which control shall be used for the message display window? A Editor or else? or write to the view directlly?

Thank you.

Regards,
Landing

try creating controls & handling them,
try view switching.

Re: What beginner must write?

hi,

If you are beginner than starts from creating a tic tac toe game. I am also new in symbian
and i personally felled that this game contains all the basic usage and handling things.

So, I will suggest you to make a tic tac toe game foe two player in which player can have option which one to
start of either naught or cross and the movement should be controlled on navigation key and enter
and numpad as well.

At the end of the game you will come to know how much helpful it was.
All d best
