Re: So is MMF a programming language or not ?
I think the people defending MMF2's title as people a form of programing, are the very people who refuse to use those absurd default movements to begin with. Yes, we actually program how we want our objects to work. So in a matter of speaking, we do "program all the elements in."

Why C is not a 4GL?
In MMF, you assign Ball Movement to a ball sprite. MMF controls that movement in the way it knows how. You don't tell MMF how to do it.
In C, you have to tell the computer what Ball Movement is, controling movement, speed, bounce, etc. You have to program all the elements of it.
That's the difference.

These type of tool can be used for business application development usually consisting in a package allowing for both business data manipulation and reporting, therefore they come with GUI screens and report editors. They usually offer integration with lower level DLLs generated from a typical 3GL for when the need arise for more hardware/OS specific operations.
This is called the Event Grid editor in MMF, MMF also has the Event List Editor, similar logic.

Re: So is MMF a programming language or not ?
I think this has run its course, still not sure why the original post or the answer the OP wanted/was after.. its certainly not a support query :D
If the original poster had a specific question/reason please post again (maybe in the community forum).
Closing.
