Yeah, it looks like you're right. I sent ksoftware an email a few days ago, asking about the price increase, and so far I haven't received a reply. I've now looked at https://codesigningstore.com and they state there clearly that delivery is via USB token. Wow this is a big change. I imagine downloading unsigned software is going to become more common from smaller vendors... @stijnsanders No, SSL certificates are very different, and alot cheaper or even available for free.

I am referring to OV code signing certificates. I just received an email from ksoftware indicating that the process would be as before, i.e., the key is received/generated via a browser, "Sectigo will issue the new certificate directly to you via email, don't forget to collect on the same PC/Browser that you used in Step 1, then you can export to a PFX/P12 file..."

Hi, Looking at www.ksoftware.net, the prices have gone up by about 3x since a few years ago. Any idea why they've become so expensive? Any cheaper options?

I'm using VirtualTree 7.6.1, in Delphi Sydney (10.4) I do implement some custom painting in BeforeCellPaint, AfterCellPaint, AfterItemErase, AfterItemPaint and PaintText. However, the below problem occurs even when I remove all these custom paint event handlers. As in below video, when scrolling with the scrollbar, painting is not smooth. It gets "stuck" and repeat paints a particular node text. When the scrollbar is released, the tree repaints correctly. Has anyone experienced something like this? Any ideas of what could be causing the problem? Thanks VST_paint_issue.mp4

@Dave and @Vincent, thanks, that is what I was looking for.

Hello, Delphi's THttpClient is built on the OS API, and therefore one does not need to include OpenSSL dll with the app, or worry about their version etc. Is there an open source library similar to this, that can be used with older Delphi versions before THttpClient was introduced..?

What you can do is download the Konopka Signature controls from getit package manager, and look at the source for RzTabs

Should that not be: Param:='http://localhost:8181/rootp/<ApplicationName>/Add';

Why can't you run both on the host machine? If you want to understand what code is doing, I highly recommend using a TraceTool or logger: https://github.com/capslock66/Tracetool

Thanks for all the replies. It has helped me consider all the various factors to keep in mind. @Der schöne Günther: Which setting/setup are you referring to with regards to sqlite db corruption and power losses?

Hi, I am needing to store a large number of small images, e.g. 10,000+ images (so could be 50,000 or more..), where each image is around 30kb. Generally I will not be iterating through all of them. Main operations are check if exists, load, and save. I'm considering to use the filesystem for this purpose, as apposed to using a database e.g. sqlite. Is there any downside to using the filesystem in this scenario? Thanks

@Dave Nottage Thanks for trying that. Yes, I am using 10.4. I am using WinLicense to "protect" the exe, so my first suspect would be that.

Would you mind trying my app (RightNote), to see if it starts? https://bauerapps.com/downloads/ https://bauerapps.com/files/RightNote.zip (portable version)

Ok, thanks for the info. I will need to make further investigations.
