Re: Version 6.5

I ran into the same issue. If I launched by the  *.mvd file for the project I was working on, MVD hangs and never loads with 6.5, however if I use the MVD icon to launch and load previous Projects then it loads properly and is able to have themes applied to the project.

Re: Version 6.5

Dmitry,

Do you plan to make themes editable for a developer to use their own color scheme?
Provide a utility or document the process?

Keith

You can install Delphi and run Bitmap Style Designer tool to edit the themes, more info: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudi … e_Designer

Re: Version 6.5

Hi Dmitry,


Great to see new update of MVD. Thank you very much.


Hoping to see some improvements on Treeview sooner than later - bringing it near to Virtual Treeview component at the least.


Also, please see the screen cap below. It seems styles are not applied to all components. Is this to do with OS (I'm using Win7) or shortcomings of styles engine?

Re: Version 6.5

When I buy a lifetime license, can I use all the possibilities of the new version 6.5 for my programs writen with version 4.6? (e.g. the styles?)

Try to set property HeaderStyle = hsFlatBorders for the TreeView
This feature is still beta stage, so I suppose that I will improve it.

Re: Version 6.5

Dmitry, thanks for your reaction. Can I install the new version directly or do I have to de-install the 4.6 version first and then install version 6.5?

Re: Version 6.5

Hi Kees,
You can install the new version directly rather than uninstalling the previous version.
I would suggest it's actually better to do it that way so you can revert to older versions if there is a problem with a new release or if you are trying to help someone using an older version etc etc.
The only thing you need to do is edit your file association so that a file type of .vdb now points to 6.5 rather than 4.6.
Derek.

Re: Version 6.5

Hi folks, I'm getting this error when I try to remove the "bold" property from the button.  Any idea of the problem?

Error: Invalid variant operation

frm1.button1.font.style := frm1.button1.font.style - [fsBold]

Don't put fsBold into array.

frm1.button1.font.style := frm1.button1.font.style - fsBold;
