WindowBuilder Pro

WindowBuilder Pro is an add on product for VisualAge Smalltalk developed by Instantiations Inc. Commonly shortened as WBPro, the tool allowed the VA Smalltalk programmer to simplify the building user interfaces for VAS by developing WYSIWYG UI development, allowing you to interactively create, place, and edit user interface controls in your Smalltalk applications. WindowBuilder Pro supported NLS support including full DBCS support, drag and drop support for OS/2 and OLE for Windows, visual inheritance, morphing of controls and so on.

The product supported Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows NT and OS/2 Warp in the late 90's and the user interfaces created for one version of VA Smalltalk worked with any other version.
