  1. If you need an integration for MarkDown files into Delphi apps, you can find some interesting open-source projects that I'm working on. MarkDownHelpViewer Project The MarkDownHelpViewer, is an Open-Source project to provide a Delphi-integrated help system using markdown files for online "help" creation. The project includes a ready Viewer with its setup to be installed on the user's machine (in practice the equivalent of hh.exe for the help in .chm format (see image) and an "interface" file to add to your own application that hooks the viewer to the "HelpContext" or "HelpKeyword" set on the Delphi components. Besides this also a component that can be used internally to the Delphi application to display help files. Here is the link to the project: https://github.com/EtheaDev/MarkdownHelpViewer This is a "Preview" of the viewer showing the help from the "wiki" of the InstantObjects project: There's also a small demo in the project that explains how to integrate the help with your Delphi application, including the ability to use a MarkDownViewer component right inside your application: The MarkDownShellExtensions Project In addition to the viewer, I recommend to use the MarkDown file editor, which comes with my other project available here: https://github.com/EtheaDev/MarkdownShellExtensions with which it is possible to edit the MarkDown files and immediately see the preview of the final result: Combining the two projects you will be able to offer your Delphi applications a fully integrated and easy to maintain Help system for the end user: when you need to update the images of your application because the GUI has changed, it will be sufficient to update the image on disk and update the associated markdown file, without the need for further updates, in order to always have the help updated to the latest release. Furthermore, the MarkDown format allows it to be easily published (for example as a "wiki" on Git-Hub) and is easily maintainable because it can be subjected to version-control. Those two projects are based on other Open-source projects, like: 1: SVGIconImageList: https://github.com/EtheaDev/SVGIconImageList 2: HtmlViewer: https://github.com/BerndGabriel/HtmlViewer) 2: SynEdit: https://github.com/SynEdit/SynEdit 3: VCLStyleUtils: https://github.com/RRUZ/vcl-styles-utils 4: Delphi-Markdown: https://github.com/grahamegrieve/delphi-markdown
  2. I just downloaded the new Delphi 10.4 Version 27.0.40680.4203. There is no XML Data Binding (that I can find) and IDE Help documentation is grossly incorrect (e.g. Code Insight has moved under Language and is Off by Default!). I also did a 'Getit' Install of XML Mapper and it doesn't work... Has anyone else experienced these or similar problems? I also can't get context sensitive help to work and reinstalled Windows 11 and then went back to Windows 10 (with new Delphi installs of Ver 10.3) and used up my license count and was referred here! Delphi help brings me to Win 10 Edge Help and I should have done a clean install but now don't want to run out my Community Edition license count! I have used Delphi since it's initial offering 27 years ago... It used to be a great product and many parts of the IDE are still great but very disappointed in all of the bugs, starting with Delphi 10-Berlin. and worsening over time. My last Pro version was 10-Berlin and that is buggy so I switched to the Community editions and am not doing work for hire or selling my apps, so that is legal... I'm stuck, since if I download again to see if I got a 'bad' install, I will run out my license count again...

  4. https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Alexandria/en/Indy say... The RAD Studio CHM help of the Indy components is not provided when pressing the F1 button. However, RAD Studio provides a third-party help. Click Help > Third-Party Help > Indy Library Help to acces the Indy third-party offline help. But its not available here? How to link the indy help here?
  5. I'm using the IDE dark theme and when I press F1 for help my eyes hurt (really) from the glare of help white pages! I uninstalled help in the hope of IDE will use the online help at https://docwiki.embarcadero.com but that didn't work, (the funny thing here is that I had to uninstall the whole thing not just help, no option for help uninstall only ) checked command line params but nothing there. Anyone knows a way to do this? PS: In case you may think online docwiki pages are also white?, I use the Dark Reader browser extension: https://i.ibb.co/py2qyxB/dt.png
