Of course the app had something else: images with a kid saying to shush with his finger on his mouth, the moon, the sun to explain a toddler what time of day it is. Actually, the brightness was just controlling the background to dim the screen at night. Could make it a bit more configurable and actually have it in the AppStore for others. Was intended as a sleep trainer like the image here: eyes closed you keep sleeping, eyes open, you can disturb us.

Jut for the fun, I programmed a little app for my daughter when she was young, to let her know whether she could wake up (day) or not (night), keep silent or not in the morning... Meaning she doesn't wake us up at 5am on Sundays, but has to wait til 7... To adjust contrast I just put a TRectangle filling the form and added a ContrastEffect to it. Then adjusting ContrastEffect.Brightness values depending on time It was managing contrast just for the app on the desk tablet, not the entire iPad or Android tablet.

TMS has a mediaplayer that works. It's an FNC component. Don't have the name on the top of my head.

Absolutely, that, to me, is one of the main point to go with Delphi or C++Builder. You have 1 codebase. Sure, you'll have conditional compile/code for specific platform, but still only 1 project. No need for 5 different sources/teams to maintain in parallel (it never works) for Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and Linux.

Did you install Delphi in a clean VM or over an existing previous version? I try to always have an empty Windows 10 or 11 VM from which I install RadStudio clean. That way, I'm always sure I don't face trailing registry keys, etc... Even if they're supposed to be fully compartmented to the specific product, sometimes, Windows does funny things. Good luck.

Just checked on my Athens 12.2 and Ubuntu. Created an empty MasterDetailApplication, works like a charm. Here is a screenshot. Where do you declare FMX.Forms? It's in the main form class and as well in the .dpr file. Did you tinker with them or not? Did you change any of your default IDE paths? Here are mine (My Documents is on the Mac, hence the y:\Documents but it should not change anything for you) for default ones and overrides. I also include my empty project for you to check. UbuntuMasterDetails.zip

Just from the top of my head, you absolutely need a Linux profile defined in your editor, either Ubuntu, Rocky or CentOS. Do you have one that is not only defined, but on which you installed PAServer, connected to it, and then, mandatory, added a Linux SDK? Then FMXLinux...

I too used to first embedd FlashFiler and then NexusDB which I really like. But it unfortunately, it works with VCL apps only if I'm right. I know do only FMX apps and use SQLite instead.

Hi, The TListView component offers just a swipe left to display the Delete button. While it's possible to customize the text with something else, it fires an event only to an Item "swipe left". I'd like to be able to swipe both directions, right and left, in order to check/uncheck (select/unselect) the current item. Any way to easily implement this? Or any available FMX component (even paid) that extends/derives from TListViews? Thanks for any help and suggestion

I did not work extensively on this but I'm able to detect whether it's a right or left swipe, but the red button always appears on the right, not the left. That means I can't add option to the left when swiping right. If I try one of these coming days, I'll let you know

If not already done, try taking a look at Marco Cantù's blog, this may help. I didn't try it personally yet though. https://blog.marcocantu.com/blog/2019-december-getting-started-delphi-docker.html

Hi, Just saw the page about Absolute Database from the Embarcadero blog about the secret alternative for SQLite... But I asked them, but they didn't answer... To me being an alternative to SQLite means it's cross-platform. Is this the case? Absolute seems to be only Windows. Didn't find anything on their website. Any experience with that tool to share with the community? Thanks

The install should define all the library and search paths for you if you install via GetIt. And the FMX.Form has nothing to do in the dpr or dproj file, but in the unit that uses it (the main form). Good luck

Jus did a Form with a button and it works against Ubuntu, CentOS7, Rocky8 But I have the FMX.Forms in the main unit uses section, not in the project file. For your info, I just installed FMXLinux from GetIt and didn't configure anything else. I think a requirement is that you need a Linux connection and SDK before installing but that's about it. It didn't require any path definitions, etc...

Hi all, Was just able to install Interbase 2020 and Rad Server on a Ubuntu 20.04 server. Accessing it via [ip address]/ems-server/version returns the correct info {"version":"4.6","server":"RAD Server"} That means it connects and sees it. Now if I try to use the console with [ip address]/ems-console/ it returns an error: Cannot open file "/webresources/templates/rlxMain.html. No such file or directory" The folder and file do actually exist. I just wonder why it tries to go /webresources with the front / Also everything is in /etc/ems where it actually is installed is in root:root or root:adm Thanks for any help. Steve

Just on the run but from the top of my mind, I think you can launch Xcode and create an empty project, build it for iOS and Xcode should put things straight for you if your certificates are missing or not in the right place. Then reopen RadStudio and try to see whether it appears in the provisioning profiles (not in Auto mode).

Still no native iOS deployment?

Thanks for letting the community know. You can report it yourself to Embarcadero: https://quality.embarcadero.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa

In the main form, in the FormCreate event, comment the two last line at the end of the prodcedure // if FLandscapeOrientationMonitor.ScreenOrientation = TScreenOrientation.Landscape then // DoOnLandscapeOrientation; It works then.

Do you have permissions to write the DB? Did you try to write a test file like "test.txt"? If it doesn't work, you don't have write permissions. Otherwise please provide the error message (if any) you get when creating the DB

It would be nice to address Linux ARM because more and more IoT and robots are using these processors. It would really be nice to target those ones from RadStudio.

It's also a huge improvement on ressource management. You load only the form/frame you need instead of 10 tabs when using only 1.

That's actually how I worked around the native TabControl since I was using only the tabs, not the panels as I use frames instead. I switched to 4 buttons in a horizontal grid layer at the bottom of the other layer containing a listbox. Was just curious if the font problem would be solved. I'll try it on a test blank app.

Thanks for the tip. I'll try to apply this to the font size. Under iOS, the font is so small in the tabs that it's barely readable when setting it to Platform Behavior.

And customers can't open any kind of ticket when using a beta OS. They're on their own. Why should you waste time supporting them when they don't operate in the conditions/requierements fixed by your software. Why should you waste time adjusting your software to a beta OS that will dramatically change over the coming months? If you fix the crash, then maybe, in the next iOS beta release, it will come back because Apple changed something on their side?
