WUPPDI Welcome Page

 

Welcome is the first thing I remove, followed by Refactoring and Live Binding.. sure seems to make the rest a lot more lightweight..

I miss my WUPPDI Welcome Page in D11. 😞

Not being a MVP anymore, it is the first time in years that I do not have access to a recent version Delphi.

But I will have a solution for you. Please give me a couple of days.

Unfortunately, the native Delphi WelcomePage in Delphi 11 Alexandria still does not have any functionality for creating custom folders like in WUPPDI. Is it possible to edit the source of the native Embarcadero WelcomePage?

This topic is about a 3rd-party welcome-page, please discuss the live-bindings in a separate topic.

No problem for me. Simply, I don't use it. I read somewhere that these components, in this case, unnecessarily slow down the IDE.

The code itself works - at the moment it's the adaption to the high-dpi settings. I gave the whole project to another MVP, I will ask about the progress.

What unpardonable sin did you commit to cause this to happen?

Well ... I prefer not to talk about this in public. I hope for your understanding.

Imho 10% uses high-dpi. :classic_huh:

 ...make a version without high-dpi. All waiting! Please...:classic_cheerleader:

 

PS: why don't you publish it on github or something...?

Unfortunately that won't work. High-DPI is not something the plugin initiates, it is the IDE doing that. The plugin just has to support it. The same with VCL styles. The IDE activates it and the plugin just has to cope with that somehow. Given that styling and dpi glitches are usually highly visible, they are the first that get reported. That may render the plugin unusable.

 

That said, I am also a bit disappointed by the delay. On the other hand, I can imagine the challenge behind it.

I've been waiting for this for a long time, too. And yet I can understand that you may not always have time to take care of projects that involve free work. And I also think that it is not so easy with the implementation

Only speculating, but perhaps the delay is due to some major overhaul in respect to this: VCL WelcomePage

 

Making wuppdi Welcome Page a plugin for the new Delphi Welcome Page introduced in Delphi 11 may give us the best of both worlds.
