What is Glade?
Glade is a RAD tool to enable quick & easy development of user
interfaces for the GTK+ toolkit and
the GNOME desktop environment.
The user interfaces designed in Glade are saved as XML, and by using the
GtkBuilder GTK+ object
these can be loaded by applications dynamically as needed.
By using GtkBuilder, Glade XML files can be used in numerous
programming languages
including C, C++, C#, Vala, Java, Perl, Python,and others.
Glade is Free Software released under the

This is a major release and Glade has seen a world of improvement since 3.4. See the full announcement for details.
Some feature highlights for this version are:
- Support for the old libglade and the new GtkBuilder format.
- Target a specific GTK+ version and only the relevant objects, signals and properties will be avaliable.
- New GTK+ objects avaliable thanks to GtkBuilder:
- GtkAction
- Gtk+'s MVC elements like GtkTreeView, GtkIconView, GtkComboBox, GtkListStore or GtkTreeStore, allowing to define within Glade all the column, cellrenderer or model elements and connect them to have a working treeview, all that using a specialized editor.
- GtkIconFactory
- GtkSizeGroup
- Custom editors for GtkButton, GtkImage, GtkLabel, GtkEntry and many more.
- Python plugin
