Driver necessary?

I just bought BlitzMax and MaxGUI yesterday, so please excuse what may be a stupid question.

I want to make a simple app using maxGUI. I don't need images or 2d commands. Do I still have to include a 2D driver (OpenGL/DX)? Is there any way to not use a driver for simple apps?

You can use the Framework/Import commands to only include the modules you're actually using.

You can use Framework Assistant as an easy method of finding out what modules you need.

You don't need a driver (e..g setgraphicsdriver/Graphics) for MaxGUI apps not using images.Make sure you check The MaxGUI Beginner Tutorial Series which is excellent.

Thank you tonyg & GfK.
