    QP: select my watches. Is this possible?

    AND watcher = currentUser() Add the above to the query
  2. Avoid using short strings. Short string is for backwards compatibility only (typically for older desktop apps migrated to the new). They are ANSI based and do not support Unicode natively, and have been deprecated since 2009 when the Unicode string format was made king of the hill. Byte still is a useful number format when you don't need a large range,

    There is also https://uberpdf.org/ by @Joe C. Hecht
  4. That's a pretty impressive map component!

    Parnassus Bookmarks for Delphi 11 Alexandria?

    @Stano Did you try the actual navigation feature of it - i.e. goto?

    How to have Live vertical scrolling of TDBGrid

    True that, but it depends on the number of rows and if the control keeps the already fetched rows or discard them. I am used to working with tables where fetch all is not an option. Beyond a certain number - a search is a better option than a scroll bar.

    How to have Live vertical scrolling of TDBGrid

    That could imply potentially hundreds of queries to the DB while you drag?

    Delphi Package Manager - choices?

    Speaking of TChart - I wonder why TChart and DUnit isn't in GetIt instead of among the additional installation options?
  9. Frequently, that turns out to be a myth.

    Is it possible to see Git current working branch in IDE?

    Edit: No problem. I do that all the time 🙂

    Odd. They show the same for me.
  12. Ah, ok. Now I recall that incident. With XP no longer getting patches, I am not sure if that qualifies it as more stable?

    Farewell Rx10.4.2

    The number of VS Code users is somewhat higher. About 14 million users in February 2021.
  14. That is not a Windows 10 problem. That is a Kyocera printer driver problem.

    Is it possible to see Git current working branch in IDE?

    Well, to my defense I also posted the native git command that in theory can be implemented in a plugin to the IDE 😉 I want to point out that I do not use multiple working directories for different versions of the same project. Always the same directory, but with the appropriate version checked out. With multiple working directories, it is so easy to accidentally pull up a file from the history list which refers to a file in the wrong directory for the version that you wanted to work on. That said, I can have multiple versions checked out to different folders when I do comparisons in Beyond Compare or VS Code - but I always use the same working folder when working on the code. Hence, I find it sufficient to let the git client show it to me.

    Well, yeah, good luck with that.

    Farewell Rx10.4.2

    In all fairness, most seem to be from the beta period. Number created since September 9th = 155. project = RSP AND resolution = Unresolved AND affectedVersion = "11.0 Alexandria" AND created >= "2021/09/09" ORDER BY priority DESC, updated DESC On the other hand, of all the reported errors, there are 287 that closed, in addition to the 546 unresolved ones project = RSP AND resolution != unresolved AND affectedVersion = "11.0 Alexandria" ORDER BY priority DESC, updated DESC with 131 of those 287 marked as Fixed project = RSP AND resolution = Fixed AND affectedVersion = "11.0 Alexandria" ORDER BY priority DESC, updated DESC

    https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-35511?jql=project %3D RSP AND resolution %3D Unresolved AND affectedVersion %3D "11.0 Alexandria" ORDER BY priority DESC%2C updated DESC 546 issues registered for Alexandria as of now. It is not ready for use, IMO. Waiting for Update 1.

    Maximum static memory

    Without a proper code example with similar structures to what you use, it is not possible to understand the nature of your problem.

    Not really well versed in SourceTree, but GitKraken is very explicit about it. Otherwise, git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD in your working folder, according to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6245570/how-to-get-the-current-branch-name-in-git

    Delphi Version in profile

    Well, I am staying on 10.4 a bit longer... 😛
  22. I am with @Anders Melander - If you need XP compatible software, you need to use an older Delphi. Cutting technical debt is vital to simplify any system.

    D10.4.2 weirdness since recent Win 10 update

    Can't say that I have noticed anything like that.
