For my needs that would be OK, others might feel differently.

If the function's name mimics that of a standard Delphi function, in this case sMessageDlgPos() vs MessageDlgPos(), it should have the same functionality or else it appears that something in AlphaControls is broken.

With the program I am updating I have to offset the position of the message box or it gets hidden behind a modal form.

Thanks

I've attached a modified version of the demo to show the problem.

[attachment=4429:imageofparent_modified.zip]

If the table size and cells are not exactly matched you will see a white edge either on the left or bottom edges of the grid (or both).

In this demo

I've added code to resize the grid as the form is resized

the grid has been disabled and the selected cell is painted the same as non-selected cells so that it appears to be several rows of labels.

This is what I was looking for!

The code sample helps tremendously. I can make this work except for one issue – the code sample does not paint in blank grid area.

For example if I only have 4 cells of data and the grid is larger than the 4 cells – the blank area in the grid will be white.

Note: That the SkinManager and SkinProvider components on the form are probably from an earlier version. You cannot close the form by clicking on the border icon. Replacing the SkinManager and SkinProvider components with ones from the current build fixed the problem.

Thanks for your help.

That would be very cool and much appreciated.

Update: v7.26 is out and the property has been added. Thank you! 🙂

That fixed it – thanks.

BTW I was getting the structure error (component still installed though):

QUOTE

'sDefs.inc' could not be found in the current project at line 2

I fixed this by changing
{$I sDefs.inc}
to
{$I ..sDefs.inc}

I would like the hints to stay as they are: if only for compatibility reasons.
I propose a new property: MaxHintWidth with 120 as the default value, and 0 meaning width of user screen.

I personally find hints the width of the screen very hard to read, especially at high screen resolutions.

+1 to HeDiBo's suggestion.

Thanks for message.
Try to change this line to

CODE

Message.HitTest := SmallInt(Ex_WMNCHitTest(M));

Dang, that was a quick response!
<img src="style_emoticons//wub.gif” style=”vertical-align:middle” emoid=”:wub:” border=”0″ alt=”wub.gif” /> That fixed it, thanks.
