Tim Young [Elevate Software] Elevate Software, Inc. ![]() | I've finally got a new build done that includes the following:
- Grid editing, with support for edit, check box, and combo box controls in the grid (both bound/unbound). To make a grid column editable with a specific type of control, just modify the ControlType property of the desired grid column. Any columns that have a ControlType of ctNone will act they are read-only. To put a grid into "edit" mode, just hit the Enter key or double-click on a grid cell. To take a grid out of "edit" mode, just hit the Enter key. Check boxes can be selected/deselected with the Enter/Space keys. - Dataset editing now works, and includes transaction support (will have to wait for the docs on this). - There are two new controls - TLink and THTMLObject. The TLink is exactly what you think it is, but the THTMLObject allows you to embed any type of object into your application, be it PDFs, other HTML pages (subject to cross-domain security policies), audio/MP3/MP4s, video, etc. You simply specify the URL along with the MIME type, and then the browser will use the MIME type to determine which plugin to use to display the object. Be forewarned, though - there are some "bleed-through" issues with certain types of plugins in certain browsers, due to the fact that the plugin and/or browser doesn't handle transparency/opaqueness properly. - There are ShowBorder properties now for the TMemo, TGrid, and THTMLObject controls that allow you to turn on/off their borders. - There's a fix for small bug in the compiler for "with" statements. My apologies for the long delay, but the main cause has been the grid editing. There are numerous focus issues/differences between IE and Firefox/Chrome/Safari that caused me a lot of grief and days of "fixing it in one browser, only to have it not work in the other" problems. It's very difficult to debug these types of issues in a browser, so it takes a long time to figure out what a problem is before it can be fixed, and a lot is just trial and error. I also blew 3 or 4 days on trying to get SelStart, SelLength, and SelText properties working for edit controls, only to have IE shut that down due to lack of proper support. If you see any problems, please let me know. This will most likely be the last build before the final release, but that all depends upon any serious bugs cropping up. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
