Re: [Lazarus] Visual Form Inheritance support
Does this work for frames as well? My experience suggest that when a frame is embedded in a form at design time, changes to the original are not propagated to the embedded version. Is this by design, or am I missing something?

Yes. But not all changes to the ancestor are propagated to the descendants in real time. It's recommended to close the descendants before editing the ancestor. If yes, is there an example? Create an application. Then create an inherited item.

Close the descendant designers before editing the ancestor. Hint: Disable Tools / Options / Form Editor / Open designer on open unit Is this by design, or am I missing something? It is not implemented yet.

(Off Topic: ) Are they crazy ? If you have an SSD, again and again rewriting the huge hibernation file will kill the device. That's the whole idea to not do that. Only when the system changes the image is redone. Keep in mind it doesn't save the current state (since you are shutting down), so only the last boot state is saved, usually the one from last patch tuesday. (that being said, I use hibernation on SSD devices without much problems. Usually they are specified as writing the whole space several times a day) -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

Don't get me wrong. It is generally a good feature, but not for everything, and keep in mind that industrial equipment is often a positive sounding synonym for old. -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
