Lazarus 2.0.0 and single window IDE
« on: February 06, 2019, 12:49:32 am »
Hello,

  Just downloaded and installed Lazarus 2.0.0! Congratulations to the team on a job well done.

  I then installed the AnchorDocking and SpartaDocking packages, as I prefer to work in a single window IDE. After rebuilding and restarting Lazarus, I still see separate windows. I have looked in vain for any settings which might affect the operation. What am I missing?

I am on Windows 7, if that makes any difference.

You need to install AnchorDockingDsgn.

For the IDE always look for *Dsgn packages

hello, I can not install AnchorDocking, the compiler returns the error: unable to find sparta_mdi used by lazarus, check if the sparta_MDI package creates sparta_mdi.ppu ... can anyone help?

Just tested again with fresh Lazarus 2.0.0. If you just add AnchorDockingDsgn and recompile Lazarus, there shouldn't be such a message (maybe a broken installation?!). At least, I always use AnchorDockingDsgn in combination with sparta_DockedFormEditor (not buggy sparta_smartformeditor!), there is sparta_mdi needed. So maybe you can add package sparta_DockedFormEditor (package sparta_mdi is used by sparta_DockedFormEditor, but you don't need to install it) and recompile?!

Code: [Select]
type
  TLiveSelection = (lsMoney, lsChilds, lsTime);
  TLive = Array[0..1] of TLiveSelection;

Did you do a "clean" build?
