I can bet that Embarcadero would not support older versions of the Delphi. You would have to use the latest version of the IDE to have the latest version of MMX. The only thing that could be better in theory is integration. They would see what could be improved to make it work better. On the other hand, it does not work for the Bookmarks or the Parallel debugger or even for the KSVC.

Delphi 12.1 Amnesty price isn’t what I thought it was…
Lajos Juhász replied to Al T's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
Embarcadero made a bad decision to support more and more platforms without proper preparation. Now we have to pay the price that they have to replace everything as it is impossible to support those changing platforms. Combine that with the fact that the 32 bit compiler has also an ancient architecture that should be replaced. -
Yes, both of them are history.

I am glad that I am not the only who have had this issue. Using IDE on multiple monitors is not reliable. I am using that way only when I have to debug High-DPI or multi monitor setup, otherwise the IDE is on my secondary 2k monitor and laptop display is turned off.

Delphi 12.1 helps links to docwiki.embarcadero.com - no permission
Lajos Juhász replied to Gert Scholten's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
The bug report is about a bad address F1 will land, itt will try to load: https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/Libraries/Updates/en/Vcl.FileCtrl.SelectDirectory. I know anyone can Google for the correct documentation, but F1 should work as expected (to point to a valid location). 1.) Open Vcl.FileCtrl.pas 2.) Line 2294 hit F1 for SelectDirectory. 3.) In the RAD Studio Topics help select Vcl.FileCtrl.SelectDirectory 4.) The default browser will open docwiki page https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/Libraries/Updates/en/Vcl.FileCtrl.SelectDirectory -

RAD Studio 12 Update 1 IDE Instability
Lajos Juhász replied to Navid Madani's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
I can confirm this part. I am using an intel cpu. -
I can confirm that the toolbar reacts if you have multiple monitors. Another think to look for is a desktop file for the project, maybe you saved it.

Selection in FormDesigner Structure barely visible when not focused

I am on the side of the current Windows UI. -

Lajos Juhász replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
I believe it would be easier to push Microsoft to change the decisions how the User Interface on Windows should work. -

Lajos Juhász replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
It does deliver according to the MS user interface guidelines. You don't have to like it, however the norm in UI design is to follow the OS guidelines as most of the users expect that. -
Delphi on Surface Pro with Qualcomm CPU?
Lajos Juhász replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Windows API
For years it is a low priority research target to Embarcadero to replace the IDE. There is no further public information on this topic. -
Product: Delphi Parser - AI claims - what does it mean?
Lajos Juhász replied to Jasonjac2's topic in Delphi Third-Party
I've never tried this product. In my experience it still requires a human developer to find bugs. All the find & replace changes to migrate between versions can be achieved using the refind utility. -

You can query the state of these buttons using https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-getkeystate if GetKeyState(VK_CONTROL)<0 then .... if GetKeyState(VK_SHIFT)<0 then .... -
Why does IDE require UAC elevation when starting?
Lajos Juhász replied to Tom F's topic in General Help
Same for me. I don't have the registry entry in the AppCompatFlags\Layers. Delphi 12 works just as should be with a normal level user without beeing elevated. -
The first instance of bds should debug the second one. Thus, it should break on the error and show the call stack. The last Delphi version where I have had problems that required to debug a second instance of Delphi was XE5. In Delphi 12 I compile without runtime packages and have a limited of debugging this kind of errors.
-
Select the package and from the main menu activate Run - Parameters. For host application you shoulds select bds.exe (default location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Studio\23.0\bin\bds.exe). Hit F9 a second instance of Delphi will start in that instance open the package and try to install. You should get a call stack.

Product: Delphi Parser - AI claims - what does it mean?
Lajos Juhász replied to Jasonjac2's topic in Delphi Third-Party
The product About page gives you an explanation. According to that page it is an automatized robot that can analyze and rewrite your code. In my experience that is a very bold claim. -
I've copied IPADresses you posted and using the i.ReadString('DBiDashboard', 'IPAddresses', '') cannot reproduce your problem.

Why does IDE require UAC elevation when starting?
Lajos Juhász replied to Tom F's topic in General Help
Correct the IDE. The question was if using ISO and WEB installer will behave differently. -

Why does IDE require UAC elevation when starting?
Lajos Juhász replied to Tom F's topic in General Help
For me this is the first time that I am using a standard user, the IDE works without a problem. I have the default UAC for standard users, that is Always Notify. -

I am using ISO to install Delphi, never have had to start it elevated.
