Components form not sizeable

[PeterPanettone 157]

Delphi 10.3.1:

 

 

Components -> Install Packages -> Click on the "Components" button:

 

 

As you can see, the dialog has the text overlay "Form made sizable by GExperts".

 

However, the dialog is not resizable at all (which IMO would not make much sense in this specific case).

 

Is this a bug? If yes, I will add it to the GExperts bug list.

Yes, that's a bug. It works fine up to Delphi 10.2.

 

And it makes sense, at least to allow the user to make the dialog higher for long lists (e.g. the Interbase components), otherwise I would not have bothered.

 

Yes, Please file a bug report.

 

(But the "fix" will probably be to disable this functionality for Delphi 10.3+. I'm really getting tired of working around newly introduced bugs and "features" in the Delphi IDE, especially since I don't use it because of all the bugs.)

Thomas, thanks for the information.

 

Bug filed.

 

Have you already filed quality reports at Embarcadero for those bugs?

For some, but not all.

I have now disabled that functionality for Delphi 10.3.1.
