Thanks Ray. However, I have decided not to use the TRZFormState component in my app as I only want one ini Section for all forms in the app and only one key (with minimal data) per form in that section; TRZFormState works fine as far as form positioning is concerned, but doesn’t meet this requirement. I don’t want to use registry storage.
Well done, but I doubt it will have any effect. I’ve attached a comment to bug report RSP – 21178, but as that was submitted in Sept 2018 and is still open, it looks as though these controls have little importance within Emb – even though many of us use them extensively. Over to the basic Delphi controls I guess which, in a short test today, seem to work correctly visually with high scaling.
NO. See my comments in the ‘Scaling’ topic above. If you want to handle high dpi screens in your apps, you will have to convert many (most?) visual Raize components to basic Delphi ones. Very disappointing and Emb have fallen down on the job here.
As I suspected, I don’t think any High DPI changes have been made since 10.3. I tested a TRzRadioGroup at 100% and 175% scaling; at 175% the radio items were correctly scaled up, but the caption wasn’t – and was the same size at both scaling factors. A basic Delphi TRadioGroup displayed correctly at both scaling factors. This means that many of the Raize components I use (and I use a lot) cannot be used in my 10.4 High DPI conforming app update. This is extremely disappointing and will mean a lot of extra work to change these components to standard Delphi components. Pretty unacceptable given the huge subscription prices we pay!
I see ksvc is now available with 10.4 Getit. However, the version is still 6.2.3, so does that mean that the High-DPI changes discussed here have not been incorporated – or perhaps, hopefully, they have?

If we only knew whether or not the relevant changes to handle High-DPI monitors were in hand, I would be happy to wait while the work was done. However, if that work isn’t in hand, I want to get on with replacing all the Raize components (of which I use a lot) with components that do handle High-DPI correctly – probably with basic Delphi components. It’s not knowing what is happening which is so frustrating at the moment.
Agreed. Very frustrating. But it’s not only the availability of KVSL, but also their High-DPI monitors’ handling capabilities. I’m now getting complaints from customers about this and I hope to resolve these issues with 10.4. Not looking great at the moment I have to say. Let’s hope I’m being too pessimistic!
