  1. ANN: StyleControls VCL v. 5.01 just released! http://www.almdev.com StyleControls VCL is a powerful, stable package of components, which uses Classic drawing, system Themes, GDI+ and VCL Styles. This package contains the unique solutions to extend standard VCL controls and also has many unique, advanced controls to create applications with UWP / Fluent UI design. Also with this package you can really improve applying and using of VCL Styles in your application. In the new version, we added new features that our customers requested + adjusting the rounded corners of the DWM border in Windows 11.

    Is Graphics32 ready for Delphi 11 yet?

    It would be really cool if Embarcadero broke with tradition of ignoring anything older than one year and included a unified include file that provides all the conditions that numerous third party libraries need to keep supporting multiple compilers, which Embarcadero then updated and included with each new release. We could even write it for them. Component vendors would need a one-off update to the new format, and to include the initial version for the existing users, but would no longer need to keep updating their own versions. Angus
  5. us C++ programmers have had this since the begining - it's very common to just use a pair { } and create a local variable that exists only for the extent of the braces

    Delphi compatibility with Windows 11?

    Typically, any Delphi app runs smoothly on Windows 11 (I've been using W11 since June). Using an application with native Windows Style, the main differences I found are visible in this form: The window and even the menu have rounded corners The menuitem selected has rounded corners and a smaller area of drawing The major problem is visible in the selected cell of a DbGrid: a strange rectangular and a rounded focused box: very bad to see. If an edit has Ctl3D it works like default in W11: only the bottom border is visible (and colored): when the input receive focus the bottom border gets thicker Selected RadioGroup has a colored border instead of a dot inside. Scrollbars are thiny and enlarged when focused. Buttons are rounded Using a Styled app, all of those problem disappear, but it would be useful to have styles that look like Windows 11, just as Windows 10 styles were created (I hope in the next Delphi 11 release).
