Lazarus Release Candidate 1 of 3.0

[jamie]

D does not have Keyboard events on the TGroupbox but it does have a on Enter/Exit etc.

The Group box is supposed to advance the focus onto a child control, especially the TAB sequence, which currently the TAB operation treats the groupbox as a control and you need to tab again to get to a child control.


 Do as you please, a fix was suggested, although not perfect but at least better than nothing.
 
 I am only trying to help but if you want low Q then I guess there is nothing wrong with-it, carry-on men.

EDIT:
 Please read the note down a bit.

Hi all, thank you for the new release!
I haven't installed it yet. Are the i18n exclusion features still present in Lazarus 3.0? (those in Project options>i18n>Exclusion>identificators and originals)
I've read the changes, nothing is mentioned about this. I assume they still exists however I would like to have a confirmation.

Yes, everything there is like before.
Is it good or bad? I have never used those features myself.

Hi, I've not used that at all, but maybe Lulu will use it for LazPaint, so we need to know if still available.

Thanks.

Yes, the i18n exclusions are available.

I used this feature in Give Your Voice, it work well  and avoids redundant translations such as 'Ok', 'Cancel', etc... in the po files.

Hi,

does anyone know if QT6 or GTK3 widget sets now have support for BitBlt?

It seems that BitBlt support has been restored in QT6 upstream
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qimage.html

(It was dropped in QT4/5)

Cheers,
Peter

Where do you see bitblt function in qimage docs ?
Edit: you have QPainter drawImage and drawPixmap.

Just search the linked page for BitBlt. Its nearly at the bottom.

HBITMAP QImage::toHBITMAP() const

Creates a HBITMAP equivalent of the QImage.
Returns the HBITMAP handle.
It is the caller's responsibility to free the HBITMAP data after use.

For usage with with standard GDI calls, such as BitBlt(), ....

Maybe I'm just confused, but Tools-Desktops...-Autosave cannot be turned off.

It was already mentioned by user alank and juha mentioned it being fixed in this commit

Thank you very much considering!

That is only if you wish to call directly GDI on windows then you call GDI.BitBlt, nothing else, Qt does not have BitBlt() named function since Qt3.
As of Qt4 you have QPainter::drawPixmap() and QPainter::drawImage() which have many overloads, in lclqt(4,5,6) you have TQtWidgetSet.BitBlt() implementation.

@zeljko

Thanks for the info. I guess I got overexcited on getting a hit from a Google search on Qt6 + BitBlt !

[jamie]

The LCLIntF unit has the BitBlt, its translated to the widget, I am sure.

Hi Jamie, this issue comes from this
https://lazarus-ccr.sourceforge.io/docs/lcl/lclintf/bitblt.html

For normal usage one should only use SRCOPY in the ROP parameter, other operations may not be supported by all widgetsets

IME win32 & gtk2 seem to support more ROPs that Qt5.
Anyway, I'm assuming that why c-evo graphics are somewhat messed up in Qt5 & Qt6.

Hello.
Thank you for all your work.
I wonder if we are close, to see the release of Lazarus 3 / fpc 324 ? or at least lazarus 3rc2/fpc 322.

Thanks.
