I did not notice much improvement in AC 15.11
Must be your specific combination of AC controls.
In general I must say I’m not very impressed with the current speed of AC.
There’s definitely something wrong in the paint part. Look at the attached picture of the MegaDemo. The page for App scaling is not painted after switching to it from another part.

Do you use data aware components in your project?
Because, I think I can see what you mean when page changing to pages with data aware components. It looks like all kind of different data records pass before the correct one is positioned,
I’ll go back to the previous version of AC to check this.

The compiler is Delphi XE4. The debug environment is Win32.
Set a breakpoint on this statement:

procedure TBaseForm.sButton1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
   sRadioGroup1.ItemIndex := 0;   << Set a breakpoint on this statement.
   RadioGroup1.ItemIndex := 0;
end;

Click the button “Select One”
Upon reaching the breakpoint, click on the first ItemIndex property.
Then press Ctrl-F7 (Evaluate/Modify).
I get an Internal Error : F2084 Internal Error: AV06EA8554-R80000000-0

Maybe you can make SetValue an overridable procedure. Then if the value comes from the program and not from the user input, you skip all checking.

In the attached project, the second column of the grid contains an image from a TsCharImageList.
Highlight for instance row 32. You’ll see that the text is Black on Orange, but the image is still White on Orange.

In AC 15.13 problem is solved 🎈

[HeDiBo]

This is the exception, if I press Ctrl-F7 upon reaching a breakpoint on the first statement (AC 15.13)
The problem of not refreshing is solved.

There is another problem with MinValue in this control.
If you insert a record, the control is prefilled with this minimum value, when the user focuses the control. At least so it seems. However if the user goes to another control, the TsDBCalcEdit control is cleared again. So, in stead of filling the data field with the minimum value, the data field stays cleared. Then when the record is posted, it is posted with an empty data field, which is the worst that can happen 🤐

Still a bug in AC 15.13 😒

[HeDiBo]

Not solved in AC 15.13
The image in a highlighted row is shown in its normal color, not in the color used for the font in a highlighted row (its color is not inverted, if the normal font is).

[HeDiBo]

How can I internationalize the string ‘The value is out of min/max bounds’?

[HeDiBo]

Not checking values for output will also fix this nasty bug:

  procedure DoMinMaxError;
  var
    s: acString;
  begin
    s := 'The value is out of min/max bounds';
    if not (csDesigning in ComponentState) then
      SetFocus;     <<<<< Throws exception <<<<<

    if Assigned(OnValidateError) then
      OnValidateError(Self, s)
    else
      raise EDBEditError.Create(s);
  end;

The procdure DoMinMaxError is also called when displaying the value. If the control cannot be focused, an exception occurs.
Why would you focus a control used for output!! Probably because you only should do this procedure in case of input.

[HeDiBo]

This picture shows the problem.
The grid’s current row is duplicated in the area below the navigator.
However, the value of the highlighted field is falsified!!
Suppose the values depict a danger level. It should not be possible that such a vital value is totally changed.

If the new AutoValueCorrect property is False, then developer is able to handle this error in the OnValidateError event. Value will not be auto corrected and developer can leave it as is. Will it help?

I don’t think so. Values that by reading a dataset are put in a TsDBCalcEdit should appear there unaltered!!
This is a principle. By not honoring the content of the datafield, the program falsifies data!

Where execution is stopped when AV is occured? (Can’t repeat AV)

The IDE itself throws an exception when trying to add a watch. App is not running then.

There is another problem with MinValue in this control.

However if the user goes to another control, the TsDBCalcEdit control is cleared again. So, in stead of filling the data field with the minimum value, the data field stays cleared.

[HeDiBo]

Please include a test project. I’m not sure what your problem is.

[HeDiBo]

AutoValueCorrect is fine. Default must be True then.

[HeDiBo]

If you place a breakpoint on the first statement
sRadioGroup1.ItemIndex := 0;
And try to put a watch on ItemIndex, my Delphi IDE (my Delphi is XE4) throws an access violation. It doesn’t do that on the second statement
RadioGroup1.ItemIndex := 0;
Something is terribly wrong 🤢

[HeDiBo]

I think you’ve solved it 👍

In the same manner, hints on a row of disabled TsSpeedButtons flicker heavily. The edit fields in the same panel show an empty hint.
