Don't be so aggressive pls Molly. I don't need troll answers.
I'm neither aggressive nor trolling. Just observing your behaviour and wrote it down.
I asked the question, I received very useful answers, I checked the suggested solutions, the quality of the IDE, the complexity of the code required to achieve quite simple functions. Taken all into consideration Lazarus/Pascal is not suitable for the requirement and therefore isn't for me.
Sure, but that is something different than stating "I've had a look and although it is definitely possible, it seems that I would have to code reams of code to provide the same level of functionality that javascript gives me with the additional graphics capability provided by the Konfabulator API."
Impossible to met prerequisites from the very start, indicating a troll-question: you already made up your mind how to treat the answers: if another solution ain't working exactly the way you are currently used to then it isn't good enough.
It isn't your baby and there is no need to defend it. Lazarus /Pascal is not the solution for this requirement just as coding in javascript is not necessarily the correct solution currently for targetting cross-platform desktop apps.
Correction: it isn't the solution for this requirement according to your current skills. Nothing wrong with that, just don't try to blame it on something else.
Oh, and btw: I defend whatever i wish to defend.
With regard to there being nothing out there that readily suits the bill, this has nothing to do with Lazarus/Pascal it is a general observation regarding the ease of programming that the Konfabulator engine already provides. It still surprises me that in general there is nothing that can achieve the ease of programming with a simple scripting language such as javascript, easy graphical manipulation and animation and with the inherent ability to create transparent forms. As I stated, it does exist already, it just isn't supported anymore.
I wish you luck with that,.
Please check yourself and see whether your responses are helpful or verging on the troll-ish. There is no need to imbue my posts with any critical emotions, none intended.
If you do not like the answer then don't ask the question, especially not when all indicators are there that the question is there to troll. And... me... Troll-ish ? Really ? You must have had a very sheltered internet experience in your lifetime. It doesn't even come close to trolling, at the most it can be considered as passing some gas.
Since it is not considered appropriate to feed the troll, i'll keep my face out of your hair.
