Title must be clear ;-(( I don't know if it's DevExpress or EMB. First: frames are not good positioned in first place. Altering the .DFM will fix that. But a checkbox is displayed too tiny and a button image looks bad on runtime!!! By the way, the 'problem' components are within a frame. After months of waiting for D11.1 is this not good!!!! Back to "Delphi 11.1 DPI Unaware mode"

Hi! For D11; Can anybody tell me what setting(s) I needin Tools-Options-Language-Formatter ( or may be it's not possible at all ) the format an inline var. I want to have the keyword in front of the variable, now a line break is added. By the way the line break is not added in a 'regular' declaration This is what I want: TfrmMain.SomeStuff; var x : integer; begin ... lots of code var settings := dtmSettings.ReadRecord; end; And Delphi 11 does this: TfrmMain.SomeStuff; var x : integer; begin ... lots of code var settings := dtmSettings.ReadRecord; end; Any help is welcome 😉

How do you notice that?! Is the compiler complaining or do you have runtime issues?

No I did not.... And for me(!) is it not necessary to include the type

Thanks for the large explanation, but did not do the job still...... ;-(( Strange!! <Option Name="DelphiFormatter.NewLineForEachVarAndConstElement" Type="Borland.Together.OpenAPI3.Config.LF_CASE" Category="DelphiLinebreaks" SubCategory="NewLines" Value="No" Levels="Formatter" />

Indeed, good reading stuff!

Yup!

Thank you for all the good work!!

I have an invoicing app, there is 1 source and with conditional compiling I can create 2 differente .EXE's. One for SQLite and one for MySQL ( I have one datamodule which really differs from both, which handles the connection, backup, etc.). The question is I want to build myself(!) with Delphi of course an upgrade tool so that user can upgrade from SQLite to MySQL ( not from MySQL to SQLite ). The datamodel is for both exact(!) the same on logical level, so all the indexes, foreign keys and constraints are the same. The model contains about 70 tables. What is a good Delphi way to copy to SQLite data into to MySQL? Batchmove?! Or any other suggestions?! Pleas don't answer that there are commercial tools, I know that they exist. But I am thinking to deliver the end-user my own conversion tool. The question for you as reader is, how would you solve this? Any help is welcome. Greetz, Emile

Thanks for the answers 😉

Thanks for all the remarks and workarounds.... But I am still not happy, EMB had to do a better (testing) job before releasing D11.

I agree. DPI awareness in Delphi 11 is a mess!! People who are telling; you have to develop in 96dpi mode do not own a high-end PC with a high resolution screen. The forms are incredible small in that way, it's impossible to design a form. And frames are the worst part....

I love Delphi, I am using it since V1.0 ( that's a long time ago ). Yes we are all developers, and we make mistakes, but in my opinion D11 was released (much too) early. And I just focussed on High DPI, don't know what the other issues are.....

I was curious what other developers are experiencing, specially on high DPI screens.... In 10.4 I have to restart the IDE 3-4 times a day. Because of internal compiler errors. I hope/hoped that that will be less in D11. For me is High DPI now the thing that I can literally see that is not quite good. And there are/where lots of issues on High DPI on https://quality.embarcadero.com/
