Winforms desktop development

Jul 31 2014 11:54 AM

Hey guys.I would like to develop a restaurant POS system.As such, would like to avoid popping up of new forms every time a button is clicked.I tried avoiding that by using group boxes. Unfortunately they became a pain.

1.When the number increases, it becomes impossible to debug.I had 20 and had to add something on the first one.From there I decided no more group boxes.

I then goggled for winforms applications.I saw some that actually behave in a manner I want.Example being sambaPOS, a restaurant POS system. Clearly, they did not use group boxes.Too bad they used WPF, which I am not familiar with.

I thought of learning WPF, but hearing the experiences of people and with the time frame I have for this project, It would not be a good idea.

How did you achieve this situation in your desktop application that you had to develop?

Any advice that you can give me?
