Applied this trick, updated verions of IDEFixePack and DDevExtensions, but it doesn't work. Problem is much more complex: the code completion doesn't work on some unit, but in other yes (the most, fortunately). On the units where it works it works even after I rebuild or run the project, in other units it stops working. The oddest thing is that if from a unit where it works I move to a unit where it doesn't work, when I return to the unit where it worked... it doens't work anymore! (I have to delete che DCU file to make it work again). And on other projects it works perfectly on every unit.

In Delphi 2010 I installed a set of components by opening the dproj file, then builind it from the Project Manager and then by clicking on Install from the pop-up menu that appeared right clicking on the project name in the Project Manager. But now with Delphi 10.3.3 the "Install" command is not there, there are just Compile, Build, Clean, Run, etc.. Where is the Install button? Does it depends on the fact that I have the Community Edition? I just wanted to add the TShellControls in Delphi 10.3.3.

Ok, solved: I needed to build a completely new bpl starting from the source code provided with 10.3.3, using this guide: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34905926/where-is-tshelltreeview

They always show up and they are checked. Quite weird...

I get the Install, I build and install succesfully, but I can't see the components in the palette when I creare a new VCL project. Until Delphi 2010 I had no problem at all installing these components, now I really don't know what to do.

It is already what I'm doing. All succesful, the components appears in the list of component (if I choose "Install component" I can see the list), but then I don't have the components in the tools palette!

I must be blind, I can't see where these options are. In "Usage options" there is "Design and runtime" flagged, is this it?

Thank you, apparently it worked: doing so I create a new bpl package and I see the it checked in the design packages list. But if I start a new VCL project I can't see the components of the new package in the palette... And if I open an old project that uses them the compiler can't find them. How is that?

Because I don't know if they come with a package or the other, I have the source and I compiled/build it then installed it. It always worked so I wasn't co cerned about it any further.

I have always installed these components this way, anytime I installed Delphi from scratch and it always worked, there was always the Install command in the pop up menu. The TShellControls come with old versions of Delphi and we're distributed with the source code.

That's really sad to hear. For me no problem, it works properly.

Try checking that Autosave setting in "Sving and Desktop".

I find this totally solved in 10.3. Layout is saved and panels size correctly at startup, no need to reselect your layout. Problem is that is you select "Autosave desktop" in settings, than yes, it saves all your IDE desktop so that you find it again as you left the next time you reload the IDE, but the "Read-only" mode for units does not work!!! I find this quite annoying.

Yes, I noticed this problem too. Usually just a clic on the toolbar restore the vertical space. And NO, I don't have lag-time restoring the window from minimized. More, I have a problem of messed up toolbars when going from desinger to code view, but not always. My resolution is 2560x1440.

In Rio 10.3 with Updates 1 and 2 the "Messages window" closed automatically on successfully build. Now with 10.3.3, if the "Messages window" is already opened (eg. for showing errors), it won't close up even on successfully compile or build. Maybe is it an option that I can remember? Because with Update 3 I started from scratch, so maybe I forgot to set this one, but I cannot find anything related to this.

Nailed! That was what I had forgot about! Many thanks!

I can't remember... Maybe something in GExperts? Or DDevExtensions? I give a look, thank you.

Doesn't happen to me.

Issue does not appear with 100% size system fonts.

When I clicked on a unit tab a pop-up menu allowed me to select some options (Close Pages, Pages, Properties, Read Only, etc. - see attached image). Since when I installed 10.3.2 update on my CE RAD Studio, the "Read Only" option of that pop-up menu no longer works: no text "Read only" in the bottom of the unit to replace Insert/Overwrite mode and has no effect. I used that option a lot since Delphi 6 up to Delphi 10.3.1 and it has always worked like a charm. Is it only me? What can I do?

I've just created a QV issue. Please vote for it: https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-27256

RAD Studio, Delphi and C++Builder 10.3.3: List of Patches We've released a number of patches for RAD Studio 10.3.3. To ensure you know about all of them, and can install correctly, here is a list and some overview information. If we release any others, we'll update this blog post with details. https://community.idera.com/developer-tools/b/blog/posts/rad-studio-delphi-and-c-builder-10-3-3-list-of-patches?fbclid=IwAR0EcZ8TvyWslDSLoMzHP64WcIrZtynO727eZyXC90aXpomENWm0OEKV17g

I've just upgraded to Delphi 10.3.3 and in my project I do use the ActionManager. It appears that when I compiled the 10.3.2 codes in 10.3.3, it adds a "IDETheme.ActnCtrls" to my uses but when I tried to compile the project, it shows the error [dcc64 Fatal Error] ... : F2613 Unit 'IDETheme.ActnCtrls' not found Seems to be the case with an empty project and the ActionManager added to the IDE. The only workaround I have seems to be creating a new (empty) unit called IDETheme.ActnCtrls. The question remains though: why is this happening?

Thank you so much Dave! The tip by Marco work perfectly, but they should fix bug like this in the IDE asap, though.

I found the culprit! It was a simple setting in Tools/Options (see attached image). That's totally crazy.
