Slow response on TButton click

[Clayton A. Alves 0]

I've made a virtual number keyboard using fmx.

Each key is a TButton, inside a TGridLayout. Each TButton updates a TEdit with the corresponding number (from Text property).

 

When I run the application on Android 14, it works ok.

When I run this application on Android (8.1.0 Oreo), on a real device, the time from the touch to the response (updating the TEdit) is really slow.

 

If I place the buttons outside the TGridLayout, the performance get's a little better.

If I replace the TButtons to TRectangles with TText, the performance get's even better.

 

Is there any property or configuration that I can set to make the TButton version respond faster ?

 

Maybe the issue is related to the animation when the button is clicked, but I can't find a way to turn it off.

 

Below is an image of the app running.

 

 

This is the device i'm testing:

It might help to indicate which version of Delphi. I have similar code that as far as I can remember worked OK on (real) devices with Android 8 or lower (using Delphi 12), however I no longer have access to them.

 

It might also help to create a reproducible test case, in case someone else has such a device. I could try it out on an emulator, though.

I'm using Delphi 10.4.2 (Sydney).

I've attached the sample test project I'm using.

I've tested the same project using Delphi 12.2, deploying to an emulator running Android 8.1 (which is what the Sunmi D2 Mini shipped with), and all respond with the same speed.

 

Perhaps someone with a real device might be able to confirm?
