Re: [Lazarus] Lazarus Second Release Candidate, 1.2RC2
I noticed that the behavior of separatators and dividers in TToolbar changed so that it now draws two lines for separators while previously it only left some space... i do not think this is a good thing - actually i initially i thought it was a bug and tried to dig in the code to see why it happens, which is how i saw the comment about it actually being intentional. IMO the two lines look bad visually (i noticed them in the SVN version and thought they were just a temporary bug that someone certainly will notice and fix so i didn't mentioned them here) since in many themes the divider's style is already made of two lines forming a relief. I think that if something has to be shown there, it should be a single centered line with bigger padding, which is at least visually distinct from the separator. But in addition to that, changing this behavior loses the previous ability for adding empty space between the buttons (it can be hacked by adding a disabled button without label or icon... but imo it is an ugly hack), so an extra style for empty space should be added. Alternatively restoring the previous behavior with an option in the TToolbar to show separators in flat styled toolbar could be added (although i'd suggest to avoid the double separators, they really look ugly in my opinion :-P).

It looks very weird that from everything about Lazarus this has to be mentioned in the installer. Maybe a tips or faq or something in a welcome screen that answers this and other first questions (how do i enabled opengl?, how do i use a single window?, etc) should be better? (of course such a welcome screen needs to be coded first :-P A tip of the day or even tip depending on action, that shows useful info within the IDE itself would be great. If someone would write the code... Right now, we do not have this code, and we do not have anybody who writes it. So displaying something in the installer was the easiest option. Exe size on windows is (for win users) the single most often asked question. And for some reason a lot of people do not read the FAQ. So this seemed the best solution. It was already put in 2nd place, to avoid starting with a problem. First is the what is Lazarus (not very useful, in the installer, since a person running the installer will already have an idea). -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

I also wondered why this is *not* the default. What are the reasons?

Hi, Can I use Lazarus on Windows 8.1? Оригинално писмо От: Mattias Gaertner Относно: [Lazarus] Lazarus Second Release Candidate, 1.2RC2 До: lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org Изпратено на: Понеделник, 2014, Януари 13 19:34:19 EET The Lazarus team would like to announce the second Release Candidate for the upcoming Version 1.2. We invite all users to test this Release Candidate. Please read here why everybody really should join the testing now. News in this Version http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_1.2.0_release_notes On Windows the installer now allows 2 independent installations. http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Multiple_Lazarus#Installation_of_multiple_Lazarus About the release process: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_1.2_fixes_branch#Roadmap_to_1.2 The 1.2.0RC2 is built with fpc 2.6.2. The release is available for download on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/ Choose your CPU, OS, distro and then the Lazarus 1.2RC2 directory. Minimum requirements: Windows: 98, 2k, XP, Vista, 7, 32 or 64bit FreeBSD/Linux: gtk 2.8 or qt4.5, 32 or 64bit Mac OS X: 10.5 to 10.8, LCL on carbon only 32bit, non LCL apps can be 64bit == Why should everybody (including you) test the release candidate? == It the past months the Lazarus team has stabilized the 1.2 fixes branch. The resulting 1.2RC2 is now stable enough to be used by any one for test purposes. However many of the fixes and new features that were committed since the release of 1.0 required changes to the code of existing features too. While we have tested those ourself, there may still be problems that only occur with very specific configurations or one project in a million. Yes, it may be that you are the only person with a project, that will not work in the new IDE. So if you do not test, we can not fix it. Please do not wait for the final release, in order to test. It may be too late. Once the release is out we will have to be more selective about which fixes can be merged for further 1.2.x releases. So it may be, that we can not merge the fix you require. And then you will miss out on all the new features. == How to test == Download and install the 1.2RC2. - On Windows you can install as a 2ndary install, that will not affect your current install: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Multiple_Lazarus#Installation_of_multiple_Lazarus - On other platforms, if you install to a new location you need to use --primary-configpath In either case you should make backups. (including your primary config) Open your project in the current Lazarus (1.0.14), and use Publish Project from the project menu. This creates a clean copy of your project. You can then open that copy in the RC2. Please test: - Can you edit forms in the designer - rename components / change properties in Object inspector / Add new events - Add components to form / Move components on form - Frames, if you use them - Can you navigate the source code (e.g. jump to implementation) - Auto completion in source code - Compile, debug and run - Anything else you use in your daily work Mattias -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
