Is there a workflow engine that change an application's UI? For
example, upon certain action (conditions) a window is open, a button
is hidden etc.? Is there something like that for platforms (languages)
other than .NET?
 
Please elablorate little more. You can already use events to execute
some code when they are triggered. What kind of conditions you are
talking about? Give some examples.

Yes of course I can code it! I ask if there is a framework to help me
design a state machine in my windows forms application and define
that:
clicking button 1 changes current state to B
when in state A, clicking button 2 changes state to C
when in state B, clicking button 2 changes state to A
etc...

and:
upon entering state A, perform the following UI update: ......
upon entering state B write to log
and so on

Did I make myself clear now?
 
Actually, you want to delve into ASP.NET 2.0 Membership, Roles and Profiles.
Its the use of templated controls that can be used to show/hide rendered
controls or entire parts of a page depending on the role.

We can control the UI to determine what will and what will not be displayed
by using Membership, Roles and Profiles, primarily roles.
