Thanks for the report. It will get fixed in CS6. I actually thought that was related to z-order problems that Delphi addressed a few versions back. Clearly something else is going on.

There will probably not be another release of CS5 before CS6 is released. Well, at least I hope that is the case.

Hi,
Instead of trying to adorn the display of the tab with a separate image, what about changing the image that is referenced by the image list. For example, I created a new test project by dropping a TRzPageControl onto the main form. I then added 3 tab sheets. I then dropped a TImageList component onto the form. I then set the RzPageControl1.Images property to ImageList1. I then added an image to the image list. And next, I set the ImageIndex for the first tab so that the image in the image list was visible on the tab.
Next, I dropped a TRzButton on the form and created an OnClick event handler:

procedure TForm2.RzButton1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
  B: TBitmap;
  R: TRect;
begin
  R := Rect( 0, 0, 16, 16 );
  B := TBitmap.Create;
  B.Width := 16;
  B.Height := 16;
  B.Canvas.Brush.Color := clRed;
  B.Canvas.Pen.Color := clWhite;
  B.Canvas.Pen.Width := 1;
  B.Canvas.Rectangle( R );
  B.Canvas.Font.Color := clWhite;
  B.Canvas.Brush.Style := bsClear;
  B.Canvas.TextRect( R, 2, 2, '23' );
  ImageList1.Replace( 0, B, nil );
end;

The event handler creates a new image dynamically and then replaces the image in the image list. So, when you click on the button, the image for the first tab shows 23 in an image.

Hi David,
I’ll add both of your requests to the list for CodeSite 6.

Hi Patrick,
I’m not entirely sure what you are trying to accomplish. The first thing that comes to mind is why not just use the built in support for displaying images on each tab? That is, drop a TImageList onto the form and then populate the image list with the images you want to display. You can dynamically add images to an image list at runtime if necessary. Then assign the image list instance to the TRzPageControl.Images property. Then for each TRzTabSheet, you can set the ImageIndex property to display the image. There are other Image**** properties that can be used to control the position of the image as well.

The TRzListView implements a slightly different hinting support originally added to provide better support for the TRzBalloonHints component. The issue was that hinting in the base TListView did not handle custom regions (as used by balloon hints).
Unfortunately, there is no property that controls that behavior. To prevent the OnInfoTip event from firing, you would have to modify the source code for the TRzListView.
Is the frequent calling of the OnInfoTip event causing an issue? What are you doing in the OnInfoTip event handler?

Hi,
The CS5_Tools.zip file from the Raize Software website is the installer for the CodeSite Tools, which includes the CodeSite Dispatcher, CodeSite Controller, CodeSite Live Viewer, and CodeSite File Viewer. The CodeSite Tools does not contain and of the logging classes, which are used by application code to capture and log information.
I recommend reviewing the https://raize.com/codesite/ page for a more complete description of the various pieces of CodeSite.
The bottom line is that the CodeSite Tools is not a test version of CodeSite, and we do not offer a Trial Edition of CodeSite. We do offer a 30-day money back guarantee if you are not satisfied with the product.

Hi,

The OnDrawItem event in TRzListView is inherited from the TListView control. That is, the event is generated by the inherited behavior of the TListView (and more precisely, the TCustomListView) class. According to the Help for TListView, the OnDrawItem event only fires when CustomDraw is also set to true. You may wish to take a look at the other drawing related events such as OnAdvancedCustomDraw, OnAdvancedCustomDrawItem, etc.

Hi,
I suspect that you installed CodeSite Express. Is that correct?

CodeSite Express does not include the Raize.CodeSiteLogging.dll .net assembly. DotNet support is only available in CodeSite Studio.

Hi Steve,

Yes, the current version of CodeSite will work with 10.4.2.

Ah, I see. Interesting. The drop down is causing a focus change and that is repopulating the content area. Unfortunately, the code would need to be modified in order to change this behavior, and even then I’m not sure it would be possible to change this behavior. The same thing happens with the standard TComboBox–it may be intrinsic to the combo box Windows control. Hopefully, turning off AutoDropDown will be sufficient.

Interesting request. I understand what you are requesting, but I’ll need to think about this a bit more. It really only makes sense for a single application. Gets much more complicated when multiple applications are logging to the Dispatcher. There are significant changes coming in CodeSite 6, and it may be possible to provide some information in certain configurations.

Hi Steve,

I tried to duplicate what you described by doing the following:
1. Create new VCL Application (btw, I’m using Delphi 10.4)
2. Drop a TRzComboBox and a TRzEdit onto the form.
3. Edit the Items of RzComboBox1 and add the three “John” names plus a couple others.
4. I then ran the application.
5. I typed “John” without the quotes into the combo box and “John Anderson” get displayed with the ” Anderson” highlighted.
6. I then pressed the Delete key to delete the selected text.
7. I then pressed the Tab key to switch to the RzEdit1.
8. The combo box still showed just “John”.

Do you have any other event handlers on the combo box that could be causing the behavior you are seeing?

Hi David,

The High DPI issues will be addressed in the next release.

Hi,

Thanks for the additional information. In short, you would like an easier way to log the parameters to a method call. A plug-in will not really help you capture the information you want. Instead, you need an overloaded EnterMethod method to allow your LogParams technique to work, or some other technique. I’ll have to give this some more thought.
What does the output look like in the Viewer after calling CodeSite.Send using your LogParams object?
