Title: Tile Editor
Post by: aanthonyz on September 10, 2014, 06:24:52 am

Im trying to create my own Tile or Map Editor with SFML. I was wondering if anyone knew which GUI toolkit has the most compatibility with SFML? Ive been looking at Qt but its outdated for 1.6 same for WxWidgets. Any help would be appreciated

Why bother writing your own when there are several excellent open source map editors available?

As for GUI libs: https://github.com/SFML/SFML/wiki/FAQ#libraries-gui-package

I want to work on a project as a hobby which incorporates 2D graphics but not specifically to the point of making a game.

You can still integrate SFML with Qt and wxwidgets there's just no hand holding tutorial. The old SFML 1.6 may however still be inspirational and don't forget to look around on the SFML GitHub wiki.
