Hi,

I have tried MFC, QT, JAVA Swing before. I am wondering if we have any
general books talk about the essential GUI design?

Any suggestions will be appreciated! Thanks!

I recommend "Designing Visual Interfaces" by Kevin Mullet

/About Face/ by Alan Cooper, et al., is arguably the single best book on the

user to pick a language to start off with, then rules of thumb by the
gazillions about the work flow being top-right to bottom left except
for some cultures where its opposite etc ...

Maybe techniques covered in "Filthy Rich Clients"
Chet Haase's and Romain Guy's are not basics but
