Sorry about the setup problems... it's only happening to a few installations, which must be different somehow.

As for tutorials, you might find the book mentioned HERE
You can download the PDF for free.

Although it's mostly focussed on C++ programming, the two are close enough (wxMax and the C++ wxWidgets) that it's easy to translate one to the other without much effort.

The samples themselves give you more of an overview of what you can do with it, but tend to cover the whole usage of a specific control, rather than focus on a small example of implementing it.

Once you get the hang of things, you might also want to check out wxFormBuilder, a free GUI editor. It makes building GUIs easier. There's a small BlitzMax code-generator in the tools folder of wxMax which can load wxFormBuilder project files and create runnable BlitzMax code - can save you a lot of time!

For other tutorials, a lot of C++ based ones online should be easily convertable.

If anyone knows of any good ones, perhaps we can get some converted for wxMax proper?
