In Delphi they were accessed from one location by several projects by using search path settings (not available in Lazarus). You can set per-project unit search paths. This is available from Project -> Project Options -> Compiler Options (in the tree at the left side) -> Paths (below Compiler Options -> the "Other unit files" entry (you can use the ... button to edit the paths individually). So now I wonder if one can put several really non-related units in a common package such that they will be available in every application from Lazarus? I.e. package lazcommon containing 5+ different units defining various classes and compiled by the package handler. Yes you can also use packages for this. Simply make a new package, click the "Add" button, click "Add Files from File System" and select the files you want to add to the package. Save, compile and the package is done. To use the package from a project, either a) open the package itself and click "Use" and then "Add to project" or b) open the project's inspector from Project -> Project Inspector, click "Add", click "New requirement" and find the package name in the dialog box. You don't need to have any components or GUI in the package (though if you want it is possible to have components, GUI and forms in them).

[Lazarus] Using packages for often used units across projects?
I am working on porting a set of applications (company internal tools and utilities mostly) from Delphi to FPC/Lazarus and now I have encountered use of a number of same units in several different applications. It seems not so good to copy the files into each project. In Delphi they were accessed from one location by several projects by using search path settings (not available in Lazarus). So now I wonder if one can put several really non-related units in a common package such that they will be available in every application from Lazarus? I.e. package lazcommon containing 5+ different units defining various classes and compiled by the package handler. So I am not talking about a package implementing a common typoe of actions like Internet communications or some graphics hanling or such, just a container that would simplify using commonly used units like for serial comm, application logging, special graphics etc These files would not have a GUI impact at all, never placed on a form and not configured in the GUI... So this package would not be installed, just compiled in the package manager. If this is how it can be done, is there some tutorial (for dummies) that handles the way it is done? I found the wiki page: https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Packages it seems not to describe my use case, I believe. But it is too dense for me to really understand it all... -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

It might be the converter that does this...
It made a new lfm file from the dfm that Delphi had made and maybe it did not
transfer the button kind properly so that the modalresult was not set as it
would be when the kind was selected...
Anyway by going over the forms and changing ModalResult to the proper value
depending on the Kind property value made it work as expected. No OnClick event
handler needed.
Now working properly.

Did you call the form with Form2.ShowModal?
