The biggest limitation is the RB editfield. It's got so many
limitations I don't know where to start. Basically, don't expect to
do anything much with the RB editfield :( A lot of text, or styling,
or cool stuff like auto-complete/spell checking/find/undo, all of
that isn't provided by RB. (Although Cocoa provides it.) RB's
editfield doesn't even provide "Select All", for heaven's sake!!!
Also, the UI components have cross platform differences, meaning that
bugs occur. I got one with the selection of a popupmenu, where the
wrong item is selected on the PC :( It makes me look like a bad
programmer, when in fact the fault is of REALbasic.
Really, you don't know what you are missing in RB on the GUI side,
till you try Cocoa and IB.
What is IB ?
