How to get ThisFormClass (TForm1) from Form1
Qasim Shahzad posted a topic in Algorithms, Data Structures and Class Design
Greetings Dear Delphians, Say we have 20 Forms in an App. We use these 6 lines to create 20 Forms at different places. Form1 := TForm1.Create; try Form1.ShowModal; finally Form1.Free; end; When refactoring we can see this is a lot of code duplication and we should encapsulate form creation in a procedure like this. procedure ShowForm ( ThisForm: TCustomForm ) ; begin ThisForm := TCustomForm(ThisFormClass.Create);//?? How to Get Form Class try ThisForm.ShowModal; finally ThisForm.Free; end; end; I only have problem in first line. how to get ThisForm parent class to call it. Is it even possible? If yes then how? What about FMX? Any help or pointer is appreciated. Thanks and stay blessed- 20 replies

Hi, Using the VirtualTreeView, an error is raised but why ?. I have recreated a minimal sample to reproduce it. Either my coding does an error (more likely), either the component do it. The problem comes when a node is deleted (only when the deleted node has one sibbling with subnodes) from the OnGetImageIndex event. The event is called with an index greater than avalaible nodes. If someone has an idea ? Delphi 11 + VirtualTree for VCL 2021.09. Thanks a lot, Eddy TestVclVT.zip

Hi all, I've already used Themes, with satisfaction, on some little applications. In a big application, I haven't used the TStyleManager.Engine because too hard to re-design the entire application, but I would like to have a way to style only the scrollbars colors of a TSynEdit component. It is, in some way, possible to add ONLY the TScrollingStyleHook behavior in a program without the Style engine running? Thank you for your suggenstions!

Website: github.com/viniciusfbb/skia4delphi Skia4Delphi is a cross-platform 2D graphics API for Delphi based on Google's Skia Graphics Library (skia.org). Google's Skia Graphics Library serves as the graphics engine for Google Chrome and Chrome OS, Android, Flutter, Xamarin, Mozilla Firefox and Firefox OS, and many other products. Skia provides a more robust Canvas, being very fast and very stable, with hundreds of features for drawing 2D graphics, in addition to a text shaping engine designed to render texts in the most diverse languages with right-to-left support (such as the Persian language), full support for loading SVG files, support for creating PDF files, support for rendering Lottie files (verotized animations created in Adobe After Effects), integration with the GPU, among countless other cool features. Skia's idea is similar to Firemonkey's, the same codebase used in an OS will work the same on other platforms. It is also possible to design using the CPU in independent background threads. Skia also has native codecs, of course if you don't use the SKCodec class, when loading an encoded image it will give priority to using the platform's native codec, but it is possible to use its codec, for example for jpeg files it uses libjpeg-turbo and for png files libpng which maybe in certain environments may perform better than native. See some examples: Advanced shapes Advanced text rendering / shaping Svg Lottie files And much more...

highlighted menu items look pretty without styles: but with style applied the menu looks childish (left, bottom and right margins are all different!): how to fix that, folks? thanks

Anyone know of a better way to determine the width as it would be displayed. Canvas.TextWidth is consistently giving back too a value that is around 15-20% too small. I'm using this in a custom control and have assigned the control's font to the canvas.. all to no avail. I have spent at least an hour searching for answers to this but got nowhere. I feel like I must be missing something obvious?

Hi all. I'm on a PC with the Italian language and an Italian true keyboard. In the VCL software, I would like to use the TTouchKeyboard. Is a technical software where I need to force TTouchKeyoard to display US keyboard layout, because chars as [ ] | # etc are mandatory instead of accented èéòàù of specific Italian layout. I've imported the Vcl.Touch.Keyboard.pas in project to add minor graphics changes, which works fine, but I'm not able to understand how to force English layout. I've tried to change CreateKeyboard method to say "use alwyas 'en' but doesn't works. function TCustomTouchKeyboard.CreateKeyboard(const Language: string): Boolean; var Index, RowIndex, ColIndex: Integer; Button: TCustomKeyboardButton; LeftPosition, TopPosition: Integer; KeyboardState: TKeyboardState; KeyboardLayout: TVirtualKeyLayout; Row: TVirtualKeys; FoundCaps: Boolean; _Language: string; begin Result := False; FoundCaps := False; for Index := 0 to FButtons.Count - 1 do FButtons[Index].Free; FButtons.Clear; FDeadKey := VKey(-1, -1); TopPosition := 0; _Language := 'en'; if _Language <> '' then FLanguage := _Language; The result is always: There is a way to force it ?

Hello, I am trying to "dim" a whole tabsheet so a notification can be clearly shown - blocking the sheet itself, but not blocking the main form. I guess I'd need an alpha blended panel or a semi-transparent bitmap drawn on a TImage... never really worked with imaging until now so I'm not sure about the terms. Other than the standard components I have Graphics32 installed; can this be achieved with a custom TPanel descendant or with Graphics32 somehow? I would like not to install any 3rd party component just for this if not needed. Worst case scenario I'll capture the tabsheet as a bitmap and draw it on a alClient panel with Canvas.Draw - which supports opacity. Using Delphi 10.4.2 if it matters.

Is it just my delphi applications that behave poorly when handling dpi changes? This is when setting high dpi in the manifest to PerMonitorV2. I have verified that the controls (many of them mine) are handling this as they should (override ChangeScale). When dragging the application between monitors with different dpi's, it takes 3-4 seconds while the window flickers and repaints multiple times - the dragging operation pauses while it does this, and then the window eventually jumps to where you actually dragged it. I've been looking at other applications (that ssupport PerMonitorV2) to see how they behave, even explorer stutters a little, due I guess to the ribbon control - but the stutter is around the 200ms mark. Thunderbird seem to repaint twice but very fast. After some debugging, as far as I can tell, this is caused by all controls getting their ChangeScale method called (as you would expect) which results in calls to SetBounds, which invalidates the control causing more painting! TWinControl.ScaleControlsForDpi appears to be doing the right thing (control alignment is a perf hog), but calling EnableAlign inevitably invalidates the control, again. procedure TWinControl.ScaleControlsForDpi(NewPPI: Integer); var I: Integer; begin DisableAlign; try for I := 0 to ControlCount - 1 do Controls[I].ScaleForPPI(NewPPI); finally EnableAlign; end; end; This really show up an inherent design flaw in the vcl, there is no BeginUpdate/EndUpdate design pattern in the vcl that allows a control (or form) to disable child controls painting until it's done. Many controls implement this pattern individually, but that doesn't help in this scenario. The situation isn't helped by my using Vcl Themes either - resize (setbounds) causes serious flicker in some controls and I'm sure this is coming into play here too. I tried to fudge a BeginUpdate/EndUpdate with this : procedure TMainForm.WMDpiChanged(var Message: TWMDpi); begin SendMessage(Self.Handle, WM_SETREDRAW, NativeUInt(False), 0); try inherited; finally SendMessage(Self.Handle, WM_SETREDRAW, NativeUInt(true), 0); RedrawWindow(Self.Handle, nil, 0, RDW_INVALIDATE or RDW_UPDATENOW or RDW_ALLCHILDREN); end; end; It cut's out the visible repainting, but doesn't speed things up much If anyone has any ideas on how to tackle this I'm all ears.

Hi In a window I have a 'floating' panel (calledpanEdit)that follows the items in a dbgrid. On some occasions I don't want to see that panel. Elsewhere I have an edit field and on it's OnClick event I have: panEdit.Visible:= False; which works fine, making the panEdit panel invisible. However, that's not so good in design terms as I have to enter this edit field to make the panel invisible. So I have put another panel on the form, made it effectively invisible by not showing borders and colouring it the same as the background. On it's OnClick event I've put the same code to make panEdit invisible. But it doesn't! I follow the code in debug mode and when I click on this panel it goes to the OnClick event, runs the panEdit.Visible:= False code, but does nothing. Am I missing something here? There's an OnClick event for a panel and it runs the code but doesn't run the code, if you see what I mean. I've put a ShowMessage('Hello there') in the OnClick event and that shows, so it is running that code, but ignoring, the panEdit.Visible:= False; code.
