You can try the LCL-CustomDrawn widgets, but last I checked they were still in alpha state, and not ready for prime usage. If it's a new project, or you have the UI well abstracted, you could always give fpGUI Toolkit (see my signature) a go. Adding the functionality you require into fpGUI will take about 15 minutes. By the way, when you say multi-color text in a TEdit, do you mean some parts of the text is one color, and other parts another etc. Or do you simply mean the whole text must be one color or another (the latter I think is possible with LCL). Either way, with fpGUI that is easily accomplish because fpGUI is a 100% custom drawn toolkit (fully implemented in Object Pascal), so you have full control over the look and feel. That is actually the main reason I developed fpGUI, because LCL couldn't cater for Corporate Branding I needed to apply in a specific app. Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://fpgui.sourceforge.net/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
