Thread EWB 2.0 Preview Build 5 - Components not working

I have downloaded the latest preview and after installation, about half the components seem to be missing. For example, place an edit control on a form, and an error message appears: "Cannot find TEdit class in the  component library."

Some work, such as the caption TCheckbox.

Is this the current state?

Not seeing it here - Build 5 works fine for edit and other controls.

What does your edit control UNit refer to - hover over it and see which
unit file it points to ?

I'd also check your paths (Environment->Component Library).

They are in WebCtrls...but not all of them give me an error.  For example, TCheckBox, which is also WebCtrls works. But TEdit doesn't.

TPanel works, but TPagePanel does not.

Environment paths look fine.  Also tried rebuilding component library.

I've tried installing this on two machines now with the same result.

Interesting. My TEdit is in WebEdits actually, TCheckBox is in WebBtns.

WebCtrls in b5 is very barebones (TControl and few others related to
scrollbar and bindable control).

On my main system b5 was installed on top of build 4 so don't have a
clean b5 install.

However i did install a clean copy on my win10 preview system and again
everything works ok.

I dropped every control from Standard and Containers toolbar onto my
form and whole thing compiles and runs just fine.

Yep, everything on the standard toolbar points to WebCtrls (hovering over the control) except for TDlgButton which points to WebBtns.

I never had 4, and I completely uninstalled what I did have before I installed this version.

I'll keep playing with it.

INI keeps the component references so how about also renaming the INi
and restarting EWB2.

in my case it's in "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Elevate
Software\Elevate Web Builder 2"

and TEdit for example has this in my INI

[Component_TEdit]
Category=Standard
Icon=C:\Program Files (x86)\Elevate Web Builder 2\library\TEdit.png
Unit=C:\Program Files (x86)\Elevate Web Builder 2\library\WebEdits.wbs

Thanks...I forgot about the .ini file and it was staying behind even though I uninstalled completely.  I deleted it, re-installed, and everything is working now.

Thanks again.

Alan,

<< They are in WebCtrls >>

Are you sure that you didn't use a previous build of the EWB preview ?  If
you did, then you'll need to read my build 4 notes, specifically:

====================================

There is a new build 4 of the preview available for download on the web
site.

There are a *lot* of changes in this build, so please uninstall the prior
build 3 and *delete* the ewbide.ini file located here:

C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Elevate Software\Elevate Web Builder 2

*before* installing this build.  That will make sure that you get a clean
installation with all of the new controls and changes without having issues
with missing pieces.
