Thanks Navid!
I’m glad you found the info for downloading the new build.

Hi,

I copied the component (from your post) and pasted it into a new VCL Form and the status pane was created on the form, and it showed a red background (i.e. FillColor) with lime text. I ran the app and the status pane also displayed correctly.

It sounds like there is something else interfering with the component. Have you tried creating a new test project and changing the FillColor of a TRzStatusPane along with setting Transparent to False?

I believe that Embarcadero has stated that the KSVC are not available for CE.

Hi Olivier,

CodeSite 5.4 was released last night. Details are on the website.

Hi,

Set the Transparent property of the status pane to False and you will see the FillColor property take effect.

What is the precise error message that is being displayed? A screenshot may be helpful.

Also, how are you trying to install the package? Are you right-clicking on the package and selecting install? Or, are you using the Component > Install Packages dialog box?

What does the Package1.dpk look like?

Hi Larry,

From the information that you provided, the Package1.bpl appears to be referencing the RaizeComponentsVcl runtime package in the requires sections of Package1.dpk source file. BTW, I would strongly recommend changing the name of your package to something more useful.

When Delphi tries to load Package1.bpl (the compiled package), the Windows loader will try to also load any dependent runtime packages. For example, vcl270.bpl and rtl270.bpl, as well as any other runtime packages that the package requires.

What I am not so clear on is what version of Delphi you used to build the package? You stated that you were able to compile your package and it installed, but you are getting an error when you try to install it into 10.4. Compiled package files (i.e. *.bpl files) are not compatible between versions of Delphi. You will need to compile your custom package using 10.4.

But as I said, I’m not too clear on just what is happening from what you posted. Another thing to check is to make sure that the KSVC Lib\RX10.4\Win32 directory is listed in your Delphi search path. Delphi will need this path in order to locate the RaizeComponentsVcl.dcp file.

Hi Barry and Steve,

I’ve been trying to duplicate the behavior you are describing but the TRzFormState component is working properly for me.

If you create a brand new VCL Forms Application and drop a TRzFormState component along with a TRzRegIniFile component, connect the TRzFormState to the TRzRegIniFile and then run the app, does the form start up properly?

I’m wondering if you both have code in your initialization or startup that is interfering with the TRzFormState component.

Hi Marek,

I’m sorry to hear you are having issue with Embarcadero’s Quality Portal (i.e. Jira). I have not had those experiences.

As for your fix, that is interesting. I’ll have to look more closely at the code when I get some time, but I find it odd that the PaintGradient call is causing the problem. I suspect it is masking something else.

Hi Ken,

I found out from Marco Cantu at Embarcadero that bug reports for the KSVC can be entered using Quality Portal. Marco recommended adding “KSVC” in the title to help them filter for them since they do not have a specific category for the component library.

Please fill out a Quality Portal (https://quality.embarcadero.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa) report for this issue so that Embarcadero can track it and fix it.

Hi Peter,

Sorry for the delay. You can get the value of other fields in the record by using the Column parameter. For example,

var
  GamesField: TField;
begin
  GamesField := Column.Field.DataSet.FieldByName( 'G' );
  if GamesField.Value > 50 then 
    . . .

In this example, I have a grid displaying baseball statistics. Field G represents the number of games. I can use the Column parameter to get the field object of any other field I’m interested in. I do this to get the GamesField object, from which I can get the value and alter the appearance of the fields in that record appropriately.

Hi Hans,

For the upcoming 5.4 release, the Save menu item and button in the File Viewer displays the Save Dialog box so you can save the contents to a new file if you wish.

Hi Hans,

Thanks for the report. That’s a good catch. The issue has been fixed and will included in the upcoming 5.4 release.

Hi Peter,

The QuickCompare functionality is designed to test a condition for each row and if the condition is met, the row is colored using the QuickCompare.Color value. As such, it really is not designed to handle what you are suggesting.

Allowing multiple conditions would be a way to handle that, but that would require changing the QuickCompare property to a collection. It is certainly something that you should request from Embarcadero. (BTW, I’m trying to find out from Embarcadero, what is the property way customers can submit bug reports and enhancement requests for the KSVC. I’ll post my findings in this forum).

As an alternative, you may be able to accomplish what you wish by handling the OnDrawColumnCell event.

Hi Marek,

Thanks for the report. I am able to duplicate the issue. I’ll have to dig into the changes that Embarcadero made for version 7 to see what is going on. I am also finding out from Embarcadero how customers should report bugs (like this) on the components.
