Is there bug report to vote for?

It happens that sometimes when you uninstall an old version of Rad Studio IDE, invalid entries are left in the environment variables. There is a small hope that the problem will go away if you delete invalid entries and restart your computer. Finding and removing them is quite easy with the free Rapid Environment Editor. Invalid entries will be displayed in red. To make changes to environment variables, the program must be run as administrator (no elevated privileges are required to view). If that doesn't work, try doing a full reset of the IDE first instead of a full reinstall. This can be done with the cleanregistryide startup key. Caution: You will lose all your projects from the BDS directory, so back them up before starting BDS with this option. This is a last resort, not the first thing you should try when troubleshooting the IDE. The instructions can also be found on the page: Using the -r command line switch to fix start up errors in the IDE After a hard reset with the -cleanregistryide key, do not install any plugins, experts, etc. Only the minimum set of components required to compile a group of projects. Then temporarily disable your antivirus, firewall, brandmauer and try the steps to reproduce the error again. If the steps I described above do not help, then I don’t know how to help anymore.

I think that it is possible, in the absence of this property in the registry, they use the default value of this parameter (equal to 60%).

Hi, @emailx45! The instructions say to create a parameter, and not edit the value of an existing one: 3. Create a new DWORD value called “ProcMemAllocLimit” and set the value to 50 (decimal).

How did you install Delphi 10.4.1? With a preliminary uninstallation of the previous installed version, or similar to 10.4.2 (automatic uninstallation launched during the installation of the new version)? How were 10.4.1 and 10.4.2 installed (via ISO image or using the web installer)? Try to activate the "Enable unit directory cache" option. Maybe this will help you. If that doesn't work, try the advice from the documentation, located just above the "See also" section. Attention: RAD Studio checks the amount of memory the IDE compiler uses, and when it exceeds 60% of the total available memory, the compiler flushes the unit cache...

DDevExtensions for 10.4.1 can indeed be obtained by pre-compiling the source files from the GitHub repository. With that, everything is clear... But where did you get the IDE Fix Pack for Delphi 10.4.1 when the latest version only supports Delphi 10.3.3? Do these improvements apply to Rad Studio 10.4.2? If so, can you share them with us?

I have reproduced this error. GExperts is installed based on revision 3449. I can't say whether this error was before or not, as I rarely used 'Open file expert' from GExperts

Or for IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition with I-Pascal plugin installed

The error no longer appears in my revision 3325. The enlarged window size is not remembered when you open it again, but the window now fully accommodates all components I work on two monitors with a resolution of 1920x1080. In the time interval between the appearance of this problem and its disappearance, the monitors did not change. When installing Delphi 10.4.1, the problem was also present initially, so it's probably not in Rad Studio.

Buffer list does not remember the size of its window when reopening it and it always contains the full path to files

It would be interesting to also try a modified version of this plugin from @Attila Kovacs I hope that he will share with us the result of his labors 🙄🙂

This is one of the first options I proposed 🙂

Edwin Yip, I'm sorry. I thought you also have some understanding of working with the TIDEGradientTabSet class. Judging from the given question on stackoverflow and the comments on the answer 🙂

As far as I understand, at the moment there are no easy ways to achieve this behavior: Is there a way to organize Delphi XE2/XE5 tabs editor in multitabs? D2007 multi-line tabs for editor? Tab-Liste erweitern (IDE, offene Dateien) Maybe @Edwin Yip or @RRUZ or @dummzeuch will be able to tell you something..
