    Thank you for the suggestion.

    Bugs in GExperts source code?

    Is that a MORAL or RELIGIOUS assessment?

    Bugs in GExperts source code?

    I wouldn't call that just an annoyance. It's a BUG.

    Thomas, thanks for your efforts! Please fix that STONE-AGE BUG of not supporting paths that include a space character. CommandLine scripts solve this problem by double-quoting paths.

    VERY SMALL IDE font sizes

    Thanks, I did that: But that did not change absolutely anything. It seems the text in that dialog box has been written by a person who is being paid writing the silliest text in the whole company. It reminds me of Monty Python. (See the Monty Python sketch "The Ministry of Silly Walks" that best depicts the silly nature of British humor).

    VERY SMALL IDE font sizes

    Thanks, this is the dialog box which belongs to the mentioned setting (in German) From what I understand from this confusing text, it assumes that the DPI value for the primary display has changed after Windows Logon and that this change is the font of my problems. Since that is not the case, it seems that DPI problems for a single application cannot be solved in this way. Typical Microsoft "problem-solving".
  7. I've added a very useful feature to UCM: Showing the full file path of the selected unit in the StatusBar (this works in all tabs): Double-Clicking on the StatusBar copies the full file path displayed on the StatusBar to the clipboard! Here are the sources: GX_UsesExpert.zip Here is the link to the filed request: https://sourceforge.net/p/gexperts/feature-requests/82/

    Delphi 10.3.3 has been released

    I also succeeded by using the web installer in a VM. But since you are in a VM, the Delphi in the VM cannot know anything about Delphi outside of the VM.

    Problem reinstalling CodeSite 5

    After having installed CodeSite 5 (not the Lite version distributed for free in GetIt) in the Delphi 10.3.3 on my new computer and running the IDE afterwards I got this error message: Can't load package C:\Program Files (x86)\Raize\CS5\Bin\CodeSiteLoggingPkg_Design260.bpl. The module was not found. How can Delphi tell me that it did not find the module when it obviously knows the path? CodeSite worked well on the same Delphi version on the old computer.

    Structure Panel Search

    Or the type search could also be performed by: type=TLabel

    Problem reinstalling CodeSite 5

    I LOVE misleading messages. It shows how the human mind often cannot preview the consequences of what he is doing. ("What could possibly go wrong?")

    Problem reinstalling CodeSite 5

    Thanks, David! You nudged me in the right direction! But ...\CS5\Deploy\Win32 was not the right directory (in my case), like from your screenshot. Because when I tried to add those BPLs from that directory to the list of installed Design Packages (Install Packages dialog) then Delphi told me: Only after adding C:\COMP\Raize\CS5\Bin to the PATH variable (instead of the above one), I could then eventually install the CodeSite packages: So now everything is working again! I also had a similar problem with another component package where I solved the problem by adding the directory of that Design Package to the PATH variable. But in that case the problem was solved only after restarting Windows. Could it be that the PATH variable is becoming fully active only after a Windows reboot? And BTW, the PATH variable contains itself the PATH variable: Isn't that a SELF-REFERENCING CIRCLE?

    I have tried to add ...\Raize\CS5\Bin to the Browsing path list: ...but it did not help.

    That is a wise statement. And a funny one.

    Error when trying to build GExperts r3053

    I tried to build [r3053] in Delphi 10.3.3. Got this error message: [Exec Error] The command "call ..\..\buildtools\prebuild.cmd "\\Mac\Home\Documents\DELPHI\___ADDINS\gexperts-code-r3053-trunk\Projects\DelphiXx103\GExpertsRS103.dproj"&&call ..\..\buildtools\movedll.cmd "\\Mac\Home\Documents\DELPHI\___ADDINS\gexperts-code-r3053-trunk\Binaries\GExpertsRS103.dll"" exited with code 9009. How can this be resolved?

    Attila, it is important to understand comments. Maybe a second reading lesson would be better.

    Correct. Emba promised several years ago to make the IDE High DPI Aware. Although the tools to make the IDE High DPI Aware are available to everybody.

    VERY SMALL IDE font sizes

    200% scaling makes all "normal" non-legacy apps look HORRIBLE! And look how horrible the F6 drop-down search-results list looks when scaling is set to only 150% (!):

    VERY SMALL IDE font sizes

    After having set the system font size to 200%, the font sizes in the Delphi IDE (except the menu font) still remain microscopically small:

    VERY SMALL IDE font sizes

    The IDE UI font size can be changed here in the Windows Registry: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Rio/en/System_Registry_Keys_for_IDE_Visual_Settings However, the toolbar icons and icon labels (?) and the title bar (text) still remain microscopically small: Even the GetIT fonts are still VERY SMALL compared to the now enlarged IDE Menu font:

    Here is another screenshot comparing the IDE's Object Inspector fonts with the "normal" Windows 10 system fonts:
