<< The main reason I was looking forward to V2 was to get an improved grid with painting abilities e.g. color a cell based on its value or draw an icon in the cell, however I cant see how to do this. >> You can't, yet. The grid is now a virtual grid, and this capability was put off because of this and didn't make it into the initial V2. It's still on the list, though, and is commonly-requested.

<< I have a panel with several sub panels in it like a fancy one column grid (see picture) and I can scroll this with the scrollbar but not by touching the panel and dragging up and down. >> Are you touching the scrollable panel itself, or something *on* the panel ? This is one of the issues with "rolling your own" composite controls - the event management is all blinkered because events are going to the top-level controls, not the underlying control that actually has scrolling enabled. I can fix this, but it's going to take a slight re-design of the UI functionality. Firemonkey handles this with a property setting, whereas EWB handles it by only routing events to the base UI element for a given control instance. But, the EWB way doesn't allow for a way to turn off the events for a control that is part of a composite control. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

Chris Holland SEC Solutions Ltd. Team Elevate | Hi Tim,
I have tried touching the main panel and the sub panels, neither appear to scroll. I had actually adjusted the layout of the sub panels just for this test as they usually take up the whole width of the main panel. I would ideally like to be able to scroll by touching the sub panels and dragging up or down as I cannot usually touch the main panel as it is totally hidden.

In my case I use a ScrollPanel with Images on it covering all the size of the ScrollPanel. On a table e.g. the user will definetely expect to scroll the images by touching one of the images. Uli |

Just to make sure my requirement doesn't break, my need for touch is to be able to touch an object on a scrollable panel, and to be able to drag just the object. Other objects on the panel (other child panels indeed), will need to be scrollable. Or have scroll bars for the scroll function, as now. If it helps to understand, my help at http://www.banxia.com/resources/connect/userguide/index.html?preferencin g.htm has a picture in "Participant options" where there are cicles at the top, and at the end of the text. You can drag the circles from the top to the text, or the text to the top (or other text). On small devices, the list of text scrolls. -- Matthew Jones |

Steve Gill | Does an un-bound TGrid support images in columns? If not then this would be an enhancement I would like to see.

Agreed. I have just discovered this. I think a lot of developers will use Panels stacked top-to-bottom within ScrollPanels in order to create cool lists of "things". On a mobile device you have to be able to scroll lists like this up and down without the use of (on indeed visibility of) a scrollbar. That's very important. Furthermore, this scenario doesn't seem to respond to the mouse wheel either? Mark |
