On another splash component I've been writing, if the DelayMilliSecs property is set to zero, then the splash window shows until the OnApplicationIdle event is fired.  Do you think that would be a useful addition to TPoweredBy?


Sorry for the delay responding. I've been beating my head against the wall on something else.

I'm honestly not sure if that would be useful or not. I guess it would have to be try it and see.

@Rails - thanks for the tip on. compositing.  I was fairly certain that I had alpha blending working at one time, but couldn't remember how.  I really need to keep a more detailed list of all the settings changes I make from one OS install to the next!  :D

List? Yeah, not a bad idea. I'll have to try that. See my remark in the post above.   :-[

I have been using Wiki-On-A-Stick to track software additions or deletions, or track the different system problems I have encountered/fixed.  But until now, I never really thought about adding a page just for little tidbits such as this; by the time I reinstall the OS, I will have forgotten most of the little tweaks I make on a day to day basis.
The big issue is spending the whole five minutes needed to add a few lines to the page before I forget what I did!  %)

@minesadorada: sorry bro, I'm not trying to hijack your thread!  But I will say that I like the latest changes; keep up the good work!

No problem geno

The PoweredBy component lends itself well to adding as a subcomponent to an existing custom component:

Constructor Create()(
// Use tPoweredBy as a subcomponent
// Register a TClassPropertyEditor in order to display it correctly
  fPoweredBy := TPoweredBy.Create(Self);
  fPoweredBy.SetSubComponent(true);  // Tell the IDE to store the modified properties
  fPoweredBy.Name:='PoweredBy';

Useful.  Worth adding to wiki in fact.  Hope you don't mind, I have now updated the wiki.

I added to the pseudocode in the wiki to make it a usable example.

I just fixed a bug in PoweredBy that caused the About property to display incorrectly.

The fixed version is in lazarusccr: https://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus-ccr/
SVN:  https://svn.code.sf.net/p/lazarus-ccr/svn
