in your TODO list arn't there intention to make lazarus looks like delphi now days , the idea of separate windows like delphi7 is ok , but the new look of delphi now days  (all in one window) is much better .

I installed the AnchorDockingDsgn package in the IDE, this gives you an interface similar to Delphi 2006+.  There is also another package, easydockmgr, that can be installed.  Haven't tried it though.  These packages are part of Lazarus but are not installed by default.

AnchorDocking seems real good now, EasyDockMgr also works but I've found it quirky on Linux although it worked fine on Windows. AnchorDocking used to be unstable in the past, but now I prefer it to EasyDockMgr because it works flawlessly, which the other does not (yet).

Anyway, Lazarus comes with not one, but two solutions for the docked windows. And the third one is also almost finished

i've install it but it broke every things , even i couldn't restor the old lazarus looking ,so i had to reinstall lazarus again .

[TurboRascal]

That's strange, for me it has worked fine for a while. BTW you don't have to reinstall Lazarus if a component breaks it - just do 'make' in its directory and it will build a minimal, working ide. Then just uninstall the offending package and rebuild.

i've found the problem , the component manualdock was installed already and it cause this problem , now i install only AnchorDockingDsgn and every thing working good


thanks

Bug: in a new empty project, where I enable Project Options/Compiler Options/Verbosity:
Show Errors (-ve)
Show Warnings (-vw)
Show notes (-vn)
Show hints (-vh)
Show general info (-vi)
Show line numbers (-vl)
Show all procs on error (-vb)
Show hints for unused units in main (none)
Show defined macros (-vm)
Show conditionals (-vc)


Stop after number of errors: (-Se)
1

On compiling, I get an error:

Error: Illegal parameter: -vewnhilbmc

If:
- I disable Show conditionals (-vc) and leave Show defined macros (-vm) enabled
(=> this looks like bug http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=15872)
or
- I disable Show defined macros (-vm) and leave Show conditionals (-vc) enabled
or
- I disable both Show defined macros (-vm) and Show conditionals (-vc)
this does not happen.

Hey, that's an old bug of mine. Should I get my hands dirty to fix it? :p

[BigChimp]

I'm sure help will be appreciated ... and if you can solve the -vc case as well, even more

[Leledumbo]

-vc works, it's only -vm that's problematic
