Re: [lazarus] TTrackBar.ShowScale

In delphi 6 help no ShowScale Property exists ?! - Original Message - From: Vincent Snijders [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: lazarus@miraclec.com Sent: Saturday, April 08, 2006 11:49 PM Subject: [lazarus] TTrackBar.ShowScale Hi, Can anybody explain the rationale behind the TTrackBar.ShowScale property? To me it seems to overlap (partially) with TTrackBar.TickStyle and is therefore redundant. ShowScale := false seems equivalent with TickStyle := tsNone. I don't know how a widgetset should interpret ShowScale := true and TickStyle := tsNone. Therefore, I think it is better to remove TTrackBar.ShowScale. If it is to stay, please provide clear specification how it should interact with TTrackBar.TickStyle.

Re: [lazarus] adding a form to a library
This is probably caused by something on the initialization section of LCL units. One idea to isolated the problem is to comment the code on initialization section of Forms (and perhaps other units) and see if the project will now load. DonĀ“t acctually try to build a form, just put Forms on the uses clause. If the project now loads, uncomment a part of the initialization section and repeat the process until you isolate what is causing this. Because you need to recompile LCL and your software at each step, this can take some time. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
[lazarus] Refactoring Subfolders

Re: [OT] Re: [lazarus] Temperary FTP Speace
There is no excuse for Oil being a raw material needed to ship food No, there isn't. Which is why those who can are switching to gas (which, lo and behold, farmers can produce that themselves) and hydrogen and trains anyways. The only problem is the lag of the infrastructure, that is, inertia. But that wasn't the point, I see. And as for hydrogen: how do you make hydrogen? By using energy to first get the hydrogen? I'm not familiar with the process. I know you can make hydrogen from water, by dissecting water into pieces through electrolysis. But this costs you energy - the electricity that it takes to make hydrogen may be more than what you are in fact getting OUT of the hydrogen that you produce. I'm not sure though. Then again, it does cost us money to run oil rigs and etc. - and we do get more oil out of the ground than it costs us to retrieve the oil. _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
