    Alt-sortcuts are not always the same

    Is there a chance that the IDE Menu Shortcuts GExpert could somehow possibly include dynamically created menu items?

    You are right.

    You are right. I am also SAD about this.
  4. I know, but I just wanted to expand on the possibilities of different future URL types in source code comments.

    Hint: The above-mentioned problem can easily be solved by first closing all opened files and then customizing the New submenu. So it becomes clear that there are TWO different submenus for new items: • One submenu when there are no opened items in the IDE • Another submenu when there is a project opened in the IDE
  6. Also, this kind of URL resolution would be very useful: This would execute MyApp.exe and pass the current unit file as a parameter.
  7. Brilliant idea! Of course, it should also resolve this kind of URLs: ... of course, opening this link in File Explorer.
  8. Now it is possible to filter Identifiers with multiple words (separated by spaces): Added hourglass cursor during the filtering of Identifiers to give better user feedback. Here are the sources (based on release r2907) : UsesClauseManager1206.zip

    Uses Clause Manager improved: Filtering Identifiers with multiple words!

    It is not easy to offend me because I always try to understand the motivation of the offender; this motivation often is an EMOTIONAL/PSYCHOLOGICAL HANDICAP. However, there are more or less EFFICIENT ways to communicate.

    Uses Clause Manager improved: Filtering Identifiers with multiple words!

    When adding code to a well organized existing codebase it is COMMON PRACTICE to change that code base only to an amount that is necessary to make the added code work. That is also my policy because nobody wants to see his well-organized codebase changed in the case he doesn't agree with the code addition. If the administrator of that codebase then thinks there are better ways to INTEGRATE that added code into his codebase then he is free to do so. I have enough confidence in your coding experience to trust you in doing so with great professionality. But please also respect my professional policy to respect your existing codebase.

    Uses Clause Manager improved: Filtering Identifiers with multiple words!

    It worked PERFECTLY. No side-effects. Everything has been tested extensively, also the case you mention. No design flaws. No memory leaks. Everybody has another method to implement things. Nobody hinders you to change my code according to your own rules. But please don't publicly despise my work only because you do things differently. Thank you.
  12. Added a context menu item to search for Identifier information on the Web: This starts a google query in your default browser using both the selected Identifier name and Unit name. In most cases, this retrieves useful information about the selected identifier. For example, with the Identifier selected in the above screenshot, your browser would open this Google search results page URL: https://www.google.com/search?q=UnlockUrlCacheEntryFileW Winapi.WinInet Additionally, I have optimized the controls on the bottom of the Identifiers tab to better fit with a high DPI display. Here are the sources (based on release r2907) : GX_UsesExpert.zip
  13. Now it is possible to filter Units with multiple words (separated by spaces): • The number of words is unlimited • The search is super-fast • The words can be in any order • The multi-word-filtering does not need to be activated: Just use a single word as before or any additional words separated by spaces. UCM will automatically decide whether searching for a single word or for multiple words. Here are the sources (based on release r2907) : UsesClauseManager.zip The next improvement will be: Filtering Identifiers with multiple words (tomorrow)

    Sorry. Will make them cumulative in the future.

    Uses Clause Manager improved: Search Identifier information on the Web

    That's because you have not downloaded/comitted the previous changes: https://en.delphipraxis.net/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=1718 Please download the previous sources.
  16. A StandAlone version of the ProcedureList expert would be very useful: It would allow us to quickly inspect the procedures of a source code file from File Explorer or from any other program! When double-clicking a procedure name in the ProcedureList it would load the source file either in the default IDE or in a custom editor. Additional parameter switch: -c (This does not show the list of procedures but only copies the list of procedures to the clipboard) What do you think? Here is the ticket: https://sourceforge.net/p/gexperts/feature-requests/96/

    Issues in Uses Clause Manager

    This relates to revision [r2877] Built it in Delphi 10.3.3 • Issue #1: First I cleared the cache: Then, always when opening the Uses Clause Manager, it took over 3 minutes (!) of hourglass background work where UCM was not usable. Then always, each time when opening UCM, it was unusable for over 3 minutes (!). This didn't happen before in previous versions. • Issue #2: It seems that all the font sizes of the controls in Uses Clause Manager have a value of 7 at DESIGNTIME. Then, at RUNTIME the font sizes are increased. (From the GExperts Configuration option "Use Custom UI font"?). EXCEPT for one control: The StatusBar sbUCM which keeps its font size of 7 even at RUNTIME: This makes the text on the status bar microscopically small, which is unusable. It should be increased in the same way as the other controls. • Issue #3: When setting the GExperts Configuration option "Use Custom UI font": ...and then later on (while still in the same IDE session) switch this option off again (uncheck the checkbox), then the configured bigger font size (e.g. 9) remains active!

    GExperts 1.3.15 experimental twm 2019-11-23 released

    I decided to give something back and to donate this professional icon exclusively for the standalone code formatter exe: (You can use it for the CodeFormatter Expert in GExperts too). If you like it you can use it: GExpertsFormatter_Icon.zip I have sent you the password for the ZIP archive in a PM.

    Problem with Enhance IDE dialogs

    Compiled newest [r2877] in 10.3.3: With the Enhance IDE dialogs option checked: ... the List of Library Paths in Options/Delphi/Library/Library path is FROZEN and cannot be moved or resized: When the same option is unchecked: ... then the list window can be moved and resized normally: BTW, wasn't there once an option to show the List of Library Paths either as a list control or as a memo control?

    I'm not that serious.

    Delphi 10.3.3 has been released

    Will do that.

    Delphi 10.3.3 has been released

    Did you uninstall with the Windows Control Panel or with the Setup.exe from the ISO?

    Problem with Enhance IDE dialogs

    It depends on how you define "Library Path". I would argue that a "Library Path" is not a search path in the strict sense of the word.
