    This is not a complaint. nGUI is great, but it's also low-level - For example, instead of providing a scrolling listbox, it provides scripts you can use to make a scrolling listbox. And art assets are, reasonably, not it's priority.

    What helper packages do you commonly use for nGUI, and why?

    I think you are very very very confused as to what the word 'low-level' means…

    That's an argument over definitions.

    Instead of adding a listbox, with nGUI I'd add a scroll bar script and so on. That's low-level compared to, say, Winforms, where I'd add a ListBox.

    Now, if you have some confusion over what I actually meant with the question, I'd be glad to clear that up.

    Edit: Although you did highlight a possible poor choice of words, so thank you.
