Good source for VCL elements with examples and which element to use for an Icon picker?

[dfatdp 0]

New to C++Builder / Delphi and VCL and have a couple of questions:

1. I haven't been able to find a good resource that shows what each element in the Palette is used for, and what it looks like, so I can wrap my head around what is what. Does one exist?

2. Does it include something to handle selecting an icon/picture from a list, like the color selector dialog? If not, is it typical to use a TListView in icon mode, or something more like TDrawGrid?

Thanks.

You probably need to read the official documentation.

Buying a good book is also useful. You'll find more books at https://delphi-books.com/en/.

 

BTW: It is better you keep asking ONE question per post. I answered only the first...

On the second question, yes you can use TListView like in that SVG Image Explorer tool, sources are in the Demo folder.
