Barely passed 6 months and I'm sitting here with dates like "2019-10-27T22:48:20+0100" from a php API, which are ISO8601 dates, but Delphi can't handle it because of the missing colon in the time zone offset...... I've tried everything I can think of to hook the conversion to TDateTime, globally (not on field basis) but I failed. The corresponding methods are not virtual, Reverter can be regged only on classes, interceptors only on field basis. Maybe it's too late and I'm missing something, @Uwe Raabe, how can I register a reverter for TDateTime? (Creating the marshal objects is not a problem at all, I'm already doing it for other reasons.)

and what if the db changes in the meantime?

You have to disable every skinning as the whole dialog will be repainted on every compiled line. I'm also stuck on 10.1 but this seems to be the right decision for now.

I'm so upset I wrote this comment.

Hi, If I ignore a topic, I'm getting punished by the activity stream notification as it keeps yielding me unread content on the top even if I click it away. Any workaround?

are those jpg's recoded by the forum? It has "CREATOR: gd-jpeg v1.0 (using IJG JPEG v62)" in the header.

It's not valid for the latest ICO format. As I already mentioned, we don't care Windows XP and co. anymore.

From 1995. Did you read the disclaimer?

Windows 10 explorer displays the png compressed 32x32 icon preview so I assume it's a standard now but it's not documented anywhere. Which I also understand as the whole thing is just a crap and could have been only saved by this png hack. But sooner or later they have to dump it or redesign it.

He wrote that ico supports bmp, png, svg... 😉 I didn't believe it so I tested it.

Hiew+Far. Piece of cake.

@Kas Ob. I've created an ico with svg inside manually and it won't be recognized as a valid ico by any app. The file format does not restrict on any image formats indeed, but nothing is supported beside bmp and png.

Cool. Add from file (add ico) / change / save resource as. Perfect. Thx! Btw. pressing ctrl-o (open) meanwhile the splash screen is showing ends up in an AV. (Sorry, I'm an incurable tester :)

You mean all the EOL Windows versions? Well, that makes no sense in 2020.

Yes, it does. It's just a silly app limitation disabling compression for lower res. Well, this is even more silly, I thought the browser picks the size it's need and only dl that. Maybe we need 20+ years to get it right and not to waste resources....

@Kas Ob. Ok, I can't reproduce it with 6.9.1. Anyway, the ICO format for favicon is ancient. It can be either png: https://sympli.io/blog/2017/02/15/heres-everything-you-need-to-know-about-favicons-in-2017/ or svg in the future (edge still won't render it, why I'm not wondering...) http://xn--dahlstrm-t4a.net/svg/favicon/favicon.html

I have Axialis too but it surely won't compress to png under 256x256. Nor does IcoFx.

Ok, can you recommend a tool for putting svg into icons? Also, which one can save png below 256x256? Like Stefan's icon. All editors I know are incapable to do so, maybe they still want to be compatible with IE 5.5. Btw. there is also favicon.svg which seems to be supported by all major browsers.

There is no png compression below 256x256. Browser should cache the icon. 358kb is very big, indeed. Loading time of the page is great, but it's even greater (rocket fast) if you are not logged in.

Can someone tell me what the % is going on in this example? An MCVE where TDBEdit or TDataset or the DataLink goes into a strange state in a message storm. Changing Dataset's ReadOnly property between SetFocuses results in a state where VK_DELETE still deletes the text, and in an 'dataset not in edit or insert mode' on exiting the modified editbox. Tested in 10.1 U2, maybe already fixed? pack.7z

Well, it's more complicated as I thought. I've put 4 different DBEdit components from different vendors onto the form. If I keep pressing ctrl-f1 and in the meantime I'm changing the focus with the mouse to one of the edit boxes, the VK_DELETE keeps still executed when the dataset is in ReadOnly state. The same happens with TDBMemo so I assume with all DB-Controls. 10.2 seems to be OK. Phew... Ok found it. I assume there will be never a hotfix for Berlin.

@Uwe Raabe There are no observers involved, LEditLink is False, it must be something else.

This means you have tested with other versions too, and it's only happens in 10.3.2?

"All" ? That would be interesting...

"Next Modification" "Previous Modification" "Next Unsaved Modification" "Previous Unsaved Modification" Can somebody tell me where these menus are and/or how to activate them?
