I was told it was supported, but when I changed DPI from 100% to 125%, the IDE editor was way too blurred under my 4k resolution screen.

Great article, Thanks for the post.

I'm really frustrating with this dump "Welcome Page" implementation. Is it too hard to these guys to implement a "Welcome Page"??, Ever since 10.4 now 10.4.1, I have to disable this sh!t so that I could make Ctrl-Click works without crashing the Delphi with a fairly large project. Is that so difficulty to have a working "Welcome Page"?? I can't imagine how a software company would provide us a good/reliable system and they can't even make a "Welcome Page" working properly?!

Does anyone install 10.3.3/10.4 on a VMWare machine? I have installed Delphi 10.4 enterprise on a VMWare (15.5.6) machine, Win10 2004, 4K Resolution, 8/10GB Ram (Host has 32GB RAM), having some IDE editor speed issues, mainly related to the mouse wheel scrolling: 1) Open an unit, went to the end of unit, Do mouse wheel up/down on the source codes, you would see the source codes scrolling speed is very slow, took one second to scroll up/down a line. 2) Unchecked "Enable Flow Control Highlighting" from Tools/Options/Editor/Color/Structural Highlighting", then open an unit, do mouse wheel up/down on the source codes, also took one second to scroll up/down a line.

Ah, It could be just the GUI.

It seems that they finally fixed my issues on VM with 4K monitor in Delphi 10.4.1

Hmmm, just realized that my VMWare Workstation Pro was a 32 bit version, Does it has a 64 bit version?

Does anyone know there is a good free Resource Builder utility that I can use to create .res file by importing bitmap, png, jpg, strings, ..., etc. Thanks.

Thanks All. Great information!

WOW. Great work! Thank you very much.

Thanks. It seems not supporting PNGs. I will have to convert PNGs to BMPs, then import them.

Thank you for the advice. I have just made an order for a new Lenovo Laptop P1 Gen 2. I will try again on that machine once I receive it. The Stretch mode was indeed turned on, so I will try with it off on the new laptop.

The welcome page always brought some issues, if you can, just disable it.

I have switched to use the laptop native 1920x1080p screen, to replace the 4K Dell D2720Q monitor, The IDE seems working fine in VM.

Could anyone know how to debug/trace into Delphi VCL source codes in Delphi 10.4? I can debug and trace into all the 3rd party component source codes but couldn't do to Delphi VCLs (e.g. TCustomForm, TWinControl, TControl), when tried to trace/step in, the CPU window pops up.

Thank you. That works.

We bought RTC first, to serve all the HTTP/HTTPS API calls, then we bought kbmMW for Desktops. We built a window sevice which includes micro services. I knew kbmMW can do all these HTTP/HTTPS stuff, but we don't want to rewrite all the codes.

The top 2 must have 3rd party components in my list: kbmMW and RTC

Disable the option, then open all the units AFTER (it won't cause issues for the units that were opened already.) or just restart Delphi, load project, you will see.

When the option "Enable Flow Control Highlighting" is turned off, the slow scrolling issues would be happened everywhere not only just bottom white spaces, but EVERYWHERE.

Definitely Delphi IDE issue, I opened Task Manager right beside Delphi, While the scrolling issues were happening, its running 50%-60% CPU, eventually the status changed to 'not responding', Power usage changed to 'Very High', until scrolling was done, then CPU back to normal. Its definitely doing something that I saw once Delphi window Title/Caption Bar turned to White color from the Blue ActiveGradientColor during slowing scroll up/down, while the caption bar turned to white, it displayed like: "<The Project name> - Delphi10.4 - <Unit Name> [ Not Responding]". Btw, I have the startidepage270.bpl disabled, and had a project group opened in IDE, one desktop application and one Windows service project.

No. It didn't either. Whats puzzled me was that the scrolling issues only occurred at end/bottom of each opened unit where you could see empty spaces, if passed the empty spaces, everything works just fine. and also occured when the option "Enable flow control highlighting" was turned off, so I'm still thinking its the Delphi IDE thing. Same video card, same 4K resolution, same VM settings on the same host, Delphi 2007 works very smooth.

Thats interesting. I'm thinking of now it could be my 4 years-old laptop can't handle 4K resolution properly? the laptop LCD screen resolution is 1920x1080p but it does support 4K 60hz, I'm currently connect it to Delll U2720Q as the main monitor.

Uninstall MMX Code Explorer, restart Delphi 10.4, got: How to get rid of this.

Yes. that was the reason.
