  1. IndyIPServer290 issue:  Deleted it and the issue went away. 😉  It should have been deleted with the Clean up.

    LivePreview Issue:  Answered in 2021 when I had the same issue.  I don't use it so it doesn't matter.

     


  2. Hi Team,

    Win 11, D12.1.

    I installed the latest Indy10 per the instructions.

    I noted that the uninstall cmd kept failing due to access level.

    I manually deinstalled the indicated Indy files.

    I then installed the 290.groupproj without issue.

    On restarting D12 I see the following message:

    image.thumb.png.300bd23efbe2b3611fdfce1f6906451c.png

    I found IndyIPServer.dpk but Delphi doesn't like it.  😞

    Do I need this .bpl?

    If yes, how do I now recreate it to Indy10?

     

    I am also seeing this error when I start D12:

  3. So, the thicken plots....

    I have narrowed it down to using the ''' construct with the ExpandedText property of a TTaskDialog.

    I create the TTaskDialog in code.

    Everything is happy with this:

          ExpandedText := '1.	Wait - The App will try to reconnect until it connects or it has another connection timeout.' + sLineBreak
            + '2.	Cancel - This is a last resort selection and will result in an Application crash and generate a formal error report.' + sLineBreak
            + 'At this error prompt you have the normal error report options.' + sLineBreak +
            'If you don?t know or understand the error report dialog or the options available you should ask to your Workflow System Administrator.'
            + sLineBreak + 'It is strongly recommended that you select these options in the following priority/order => Wait then Cancel.';

    As soon as I put all the text into the ''' construct and double click on the OnShow property of the form, It gives me the error that it can't find OnShow.

    Interestingly, I didn't get the 'finally-end' inserted as I edited the text.


  4. Hi Brian,

    You may have hit on something there.

    I think I first noticed it when I was setting up text within the ''' - ''' multi-line structure.

    The 4 files I found the issue in had been so edited.

    I restored previous versions of each and all was fine.

    Today I was just editing one of those files in the IDE and was in the process of restructuring a block of text per the ''' multi-line structure, when it happened.  😞

    I had pressed enter at the end of the text line and got a 'finally-end' back.  😞

    I did a test again to see if double clicking on the OnShow Event would work, and no, it now failed per my original experience.

    I tried to back out the ''' construct, but the issue persisted.  😞

    I restored a 1 hour old backup and it was fine.

    Note to Self:  Don't bother with ''' constructs for the foreseeable future.

    This isn't a Patch 1 specific issue, 3 of the 4 files restored went 'faulty' around mid-Jan & the fourth around mid-Dec.

    Unfortunately, I can't replicate this in a test App.  😞

  5. Hi Team,

    For what ever reason, it doesn't happen anymore.

    I didn't take notes, but I'm wondering if it was somehow related to the other issue I posted about which has been resolved.  Seemingly corruption of some sort that I couldn't identify.

    Unfortunately, I can't recall if I experienced this issue in those Projects specifically, or in others.  😞

    Certainly the issue reproduceable and annoying.

    Everything is working as expected now.

    Thank you all for your contributions.

    I will keep my fingers crossed...

     

    Regards,

  6. I backtracked through the versions and found that three developed the issue in mid January and one in mid Dec.

    Doing the usual file comparisons, I couldn't find a change/difference in the sour dfm files.  😞

    All restored now and working as desired.

    Thanks for looking.

  7. Update - I just went through the 30 projects in the ProjectGrp.

    4 projects are exhibiting the issue.  😞

    I guess that narrows it down to what do those 4 have in common....


  8. Hi Dave,

    No it didn't happen on a new project. 

    And it isn't happening on/in all my projects in the proj Gp.

    But it is happening in more than one. 😞

    I can't really post the form/project as it has 3rd Pary components on it and there is proprietary information in it.

    Whilst I could mask the information, it would still be dependant on you having the 3rd Party components to open the unit.

    What's a little more annoying is that I don't know how long this 'isssue' has existed and therefore how long existing FormShow procedures in the relevant Apps hasn't been functioning.  😞

  9. D12 + Patch.

    I just double clicked on the FormShow event of a Form to create the event.

    I got a "Cannot find implementation of method FormShow.: error.

    I checked, the declaration is in the Form Class and the procedure is in the code.

    Huh??

    I added some code into the FormShow procedure but it doesn't run.  I don't get any error messages.

    Any thoughts/suggestions??

  10. Hi Team,

    D12.

    What would/could prevent me being able to widen my MainForm?

    There are no Constraints and the form is sizable.

    It is a Normal form.

    I can change the height OK, but not the width.  😞

    Any thoughts/suggestions appreciated.

     

    Regards & TIA,

    Ian
