I am running v12.1 IDE. I cannot seem to have multiple tools bars visible at the same time. For example if I want to use the VIEW toolbar so I can toggle between the UI and the code I cannot hat the debug toolbar enabled. Or vice-versa. Has anyone else seen this behavior? Does anyone have a fix? Thanks in Advance -Tim C.

Has the Embarcadero developer network forum and code central been abandoned? I can locate Code Central but cannot access the threads and I cannot land on the developer network forum at all. Has all that information been lost? -Tim C.

Thank You All

Is there a setting or a shortcut that will rename all references to a VCL object that has been renamed? Thanks in Advance -Tim C.

I found (3) techniques that allow one to access an object by other than its name BUT there seems to be one point in each of these techniques that require the object name to be changed in a single spot, essentially the object name is linked to an abstraction layer of sortS (COURTESY OF CHAT GPT: 1. USING OBJECT REFERENCE var MyObject: TMyObject; begin MyObject := Form1.SomeObject; MyObject.Property := Value; MyObject.Method; end; 2. USING AN INTERFACE var MyInterface: IMyInterface; begin MyInterface := Form1.SomeObject as IMyInterface; MyInterface.Property := Value; MyInterface.Method; end; 3. USING A LOOKUP TABLE var ObjectDictionary: TDictionary<string, TObject>; begin ObjectDictionary := TDictionary<string, TObject>.Create; ObjectDictionary.Add('ObjectKey', Form1.SomeObject); (ObjectDictionary['ObjectKey'] as TMyObject).Property := Value; (ObjectDictionary['ObjectKey'] as TMyObject).Method; ObjectDictionary.Free; end; 4. USING RUNTIME TYPE INFORMATION: uses RTTI; var Context: TRttiContext; RttiType: TRttiType; RttiProp: TRttiProperty; Obj: TObject; begin Obj := Form1.SomeObject; RttiType := Context.GetType(Obj.ClassType); RttiProp := RttiType.GetProperty('Property'); if Assigned(RttiProp) then RttiProp.SetValue(Obj, Value); end; At first glance, I am drawn to the idea of the LOOKUP Table, it seems like a pretty clean way to setup a central point to manage object reference Any comments on this topic from the group? Best Regards -Tim C.

Thank You Remmy

Mr. Heffer How does one write code not relying on object names?

CSV file handling and handling

I wish they would skip the High DPI Aware functionality and give the users control of IDE GUI Scaling of Icons and font sizes. I use other apps that work like this and I have good results.

Hello, I am having an issue with RAD Studio 12.1 Tool Bars. I enabled the Position ToolBar and then attempted to move it. At which point it disappeared. I have tried various toggles on/off, restarting the app, restarting the PC, and toggling Workspaces. But nothing brings the Position Toolbar into view, Does anyone have a suggestion that may resolve the situation? ADDITIONAL INFO / UPDATE It occurred to me there are two ways to launch the IDE, DPI Aware and DPI Unaware. I loaded the DPI Aware version of the IDE and I noticed the Position toolbar appeared on the start screen. I then loaded a project an it disappeared. I then toggled other Toolbars and was able to get the Position Toolbard to remain visible. What I picked up on it that there appears to be a limit to the number of visible toolbars. I am not sure if that is the case. At the end of the day, I feel the displaying of the Toolbars in the IDE is a bit wonkey, at least on my end. Does anyone know if there is a way to change the size of the Toolbar Icons, Perhaps through the registry? I am curious to know if some tweaking in that area would help or worsen the results. Thanks in Advance -Tim C.
