Hello everyone. I’m new at processing, and I’m starting to learn how to use it.

I have to write a program and I really want to make a new window appear when the user clicks a button. Something like a main menu, and from there, 7 buttons that I wanted to open to open new windows.

I’m using G4P library, but I have NO IDEA how to make it. I searched a lot on the internet but I wasn’t able to find something helpful. I really wanted to find a way of making new windows in which I can display videos, sound and images. Each window would have a different content. I am using minim library and processing video library, if this helps. I really appreciate any help or comment.

Thank you all in advance.

Welcome to the forum 🙂

Every library you install comes with examples, select **File \> Examples** from the menus you will find G4P in the contributed libraries section. You can also look at the [G4P guides](http://www.lagers.org.uk/g4p/guides/g01-introduction.html) on my website.

The easiest solution is probably to install the [GUI Builder](http://www.lagers.org.uk/g4ptool/index.html) using **Tool \> Add tools** from the menus. GUI Builder provides a graphical interface to design and create G4P GUIs. There are also [GUI Builder videos](http://www.lagers.org.uk/g4ptool/v1-introduction.html) on my website.

Please note that the G4P library the and GUI Builder tool are feature rich and you will not master them overnight. I strongly recommend that start small and experiment with them first. When you are confident that you can use them _ **then** _ try and create your project.
