firemonkey

Background I've created a GUI using some FireMonkey controls. Some controls are animated and their appearance updates automatically. Some controls only update in response to user interaction (sliders etc). Problem Interaction with the user controls prevents updates to the animated controls, resulting in jerky discontinuous animation. Video of glitchy animation The animated control in the video above is driven by a TTimer component. The problem persists when using FireMonkey's animation components. Investigation The slider controls call Repaint() when adjusted. Smoothly adjusting a slider will

In VCL , I could load a font from resource and without saving it I could use it from memory. Here is the code I use and it works in VCL : procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject); var ResStream : tResourceStream; FontsCount : DWORD; begin ResStream := tResourceStream.Create(hInstance, 'MyResourceName', RT_RCDATA); winapi.windows.AddFontMemResourceEx(ResStream.Memory, ResStream.Size, nil, @FontsCount); ResStream.Free(); button1.Font.name := 'MySavedFontNameInResource'; end; In Firemonkey I just changed button1.Font.name to button1.Font.family but unfortunately the font didn't change. So I

In Delphi XE2, we have use {$ifdef Win32} {$ifdef Win64} to identify which platform we are in. Is there any predefined conditional that may identify VCL and FMX? As others says, there is not a conditional directive to determine if your application is VCL or FireMonkey. I think the most reliable way to determine if your app is FireMonkey or VCL is using a function instead of a conditional directive. Something like Uses Rtti; function IsVCLApp:Boolean; begin Result:= CompareText(TRttiContext.Create.GetType(TApplication.ClassInfo).QualifiedName,'Vcl.Forms.TApplication')=0; end; function

I can run a FireMonkey Application on Mac OSX with PAServer. But now, I would like to deploy the application Mac OS (something like MSI under Windows). How can I do this? You'll want to read more about Application Bundles . Using the application bundle that Delphi creates and deploys via PAServer Since you're using the PAServer, you'll find that it has already created an application bundle for you. After you run the program via the PAServer, look in the following folder on the Mac for the application bundle: /Users/[username]/Applications/Embarcadero/PAServer/scratch-dir/[profilename] If your
