    Tip of day glitch

    Can you please test with the latest version 15.1.4?
  3. Add a breakpoint at the proper source line and open the context menu on that breakpoint. Set the Pass count to some high value. For more info see the docs: https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Alexandria/en/Add_Source_Breakpoint

    Unable to add icon to toolbar in IDE

    Make sure you have a unit and form open to toggle between.

    OldCreateOrder and Delphi 11

    Can't you just override ReadState and set OldCreateOrder to false after calling inherited? This can be pretty simple when all forms are derived from a common base form. BTW, TDataModule suffers from the same issue.

    How can I move a window to the left edge of a monitor?

    Alternative: Left := - (Width - ClientWidth) div 2;

    How can I move a window to the left edge of a monitor?

    WindowState := TWindowState.wsMaximized; var L := Left; WindowState := TWindowState.wsNormal; Left := L;

    Is there enable/disable MMX option?

    Oops!
  9. Uwe Raabe

    Is there enable/disable MMX option?

    I know what is happening: In MMX settings under Delphi Editor there is a setting Auto toggle Object Inspector and Code Explorer reacting on F12. Try to disable that.

    Is there enable/disable MMX option?

    Can you give detailed steps? This is what I tried (I refused to fiddle around with my standard layout): Create a new layout with MMX floating (usually I use it in a docked layout) Make that layout standard Switch between Form and Source design: MMX stays open floating Close MMX window Switch between Form and Source design: MMX stays closed Reload the layout: MMX appears floating Close MMX window and save the layout Make MMX visible again Repeat the tests above: Works as expected with MMX staying closed after reloading the layout MMX visibility and position is stored with the layout, so just closing MMX will only hold as long as the layout is not changed. This is standard behavior for all IDE windows. Side note: I know, I'm biased, but I would not even think of closing MMX anytime, because I use it all over the place. It gives me way better overview of the current unit and allows for faster navigation. Even while designing I have MMX fully visible or at least in a flyout tab. Renaming components with MMX is so much better than doing so in the Object Inspector, as it also renames all references in the code.

    How to synchronize splitters?

    I have another approach: type TSplitter = class(Vcl.ExtCtrls.TSplitter) private FInMoveSplitter: Boolean; FSibling: TSplitter; protected procedure WndProc(var Message: TMessage); override; public procedure MoveSplitter(var aMsg: TMessage); property Sibling: TSplitter read FSibling write FSibling; end; procedure TSplitter.MoveSplitter(var aMsg: TMessage); begin FInMoveSplitter := True; try Perform(aMsg.Msg, aMsg.WParam, aMsg.LParam); finally FInMoveSplitter := False; end; end; procedure TSplitter.WndProc(var Message: TMessage); begin if (Message.Msg >= WM_MOUSEFIRST) and (Message.Msg <= WM_MOUSELAST) and not FInMoveSplitter and (Sibling <> nil) then Sibling.MoveSplitter(Message); inherited WndProc(Message); end; Linking is a two liner: Splitter2.Sibling := Splitter3; Splitter3.Sibling := Splitter2;

    Well, I cannot reproduce on my system (Windows 10, Delphi 11.1). I can try a fix, but I cannot verify if it is working.

    Thanks for reporting. Looks a bit like VCL style related.

    MMX blocks IDE

    It shows the return type of the selected property or function, void in case of a procedure, empty if nothing like that is selected. I have no CnPack installed here.

    MMX blocks IDE

    There must be more than only these two steps. Changing something in a unit and closing it without saving happens several times in an hour without showing any problem - not only on my system I guess.

    Inspect variables during debug

    Are you trying to say, you are using interfaces only to avoid being responsible for destroying your object instances?

    check if string date

    Yes, the variable where the date is going to be stored.
  18. Uwe Raabe

    check if string date

    Let me guess. Your code looks something like this: if TryStrToDate(Edit1, theDate) then But it should be if TryStrToDate(Edit1.Text, theDate) then
  19. Well, I cannot speak for C++-Builder, but in Delphi there is type UTF8String and you can just assign to and from string: var S: string; u8: UTF8String; begin S := 'Hello World'; u8 := S; u8 := 'Hello World'; S := u8; end;
  20. What variable type are you going to store the UTF-8?
  21. Check if you have more than one declaration of MyAttributeOne.
  22. IMHO, using caFree seems not the best approach for the ShowModal case. With caFree a message CM_RELEASE is placed inside the message queue of the form, which will lead to Free when this message is processed later. This is OK when calling Show for the form. I suggest to keep the default caHide Action in the FormClose and add a FDetailForm.Free in the finally block.

    Form closing - curiosity question..

    When the MainForm is closed the application is terminated. That implies that all forms created with Application as owner will be destroyed, but not closed (so OnDestroy is called, but not OnClose). The order depends on the components order inside Application. Any form created without an Owner will just vanish.
  24. If it is a regression, it dates back to Delphi 7 (cannot test for Delphi 6). Given that conditional expressions were introduced in Delphi 6 I wonder if that has ever worked.
