Composite components only work up to a point, and Lazarus was never very good with composite components. Both Bogusław and myself tried to port the tiOPF GUI components (they are all composite) to LCL. It was a nightmare. Focus was often incorrect, Form Designer couldn't handle them correctly, and platform (widgetset) differences. So no, I would not recommend composite components under Lazurus - even to my enemy. :) > You can set BorderStyle to bsNone for the edit, but I'm not sure if this > works on all widgetsets. One of many complications. That's why I suggested a custom drawn component, implemented in only Object Pascal.
