The swiki has some tutorials and Noury's EasyMorphGUI is looking
promising. EToys is easy to work with if your requirements are not too demanding. Even coding Morphs from scratch is not too difficult and there are many examples to work from. How are you interfacing to the hydraulics?

And the VB GUI? Got a pic? IMO start with EToys for a first attempt,
maybe throw in Connectors if you want a visual representation of the hydraulic circuit/system. You don't mention feedback for control/monitoring so it's difficult to suggest any thing more. HTH.

I went to squeak.org and > naturally, 2/3rds of the links give me If you have drawings or picts and some sketch for guide, I could do something similar to LogicCircus, what was builded inspired by Fabrik. See pict and could download at ftp://[hidden email]/Public/SqueakLight/3.9Compat ible/LogicCircus.3.sar password: elpelotero Fell free to email direct if you wish.
