Second if you think that some LCL classes are too restrictive you can always 
change them (as you have the source) and provide a patch. If your argument is 
reasonable the Lazarus developers will surely apply your patch.

Many years ago, I thought the same way as you do. Unfortunately it was
made clear to me that the LCL's goal is to be a Delphi VCL clone!
Delphi dictates what LCL is allowed to do - simple as that. Patches to
the contrary will not be accepted. Sad but true - hence I moved on to
greener pastures.


The DestRect property/function of TImage that is the reason of this thread was moved to public and this property doesn't even exist in Delphi (like the OnPaint event for TImage)...
