Hi Sergey, I've been working on a way to embed attachments in my rvf files. I found a post on RVAttachedFile. I tried that but can't get it to work, it looks like the post is pretty old now. Did RVAttachedFile ever get updated? What I'm doing now is using TNetEncoding base64. Here's what I'm using: ...

I don't use lazarus, but I've had similar problems before in delphi (not with rve components but others with the same issue). I'd first uninstall the compnent(s). Then, find where the IDE keeps its compiled files (DCUs, BPLs in delphi, not sure what they are in lazarus). Delete those files first and...

Tom, (not from Sergey!!) I know you can use this: Property UndoLimit sets the capacity of undo buffer. It can be used to disable undo/redo feature. https://www.trichview.com/help/index.html?undo_in_richviewedit.html You'd probably have to set it to the current undo count: TRVEditRVData(rv.RVData).Un...

Hi Sergey,

Is there a "built-in" or simple way to generate a small thumbnail image of a given rvf file? I've searched and so far have not discovered anything for this. I'd like to be able to generate a small thumbnail that I could insert into the rve I'm using.

Thanks Sergey

OK, thanks. I get the best results with RemoveInternalLeading := true; RemoveSpaceBelow := true; UseTypoMetric := false. I think that's about the closest I can get.

Thanks Sergey

Hi Sergey, Yes, that fixed the print preview! I no longer have to set OuterVSpacing and it all works! Thanks. One more related question. I have RemoveSpaceBelow set to true. I would expect that to eliminate the space below the drop cap, but no matter what I do, I get this: Image23.png What I want (a...

Margins are not supposed to be negative. I have an alternative suggestion: instead of changing margins, you can use RemoveInternalLeading property. Hi Sergey, I'm setting both RemoveInternalLeading and RemoveSpaceBelow to true. That seems to take care of the regular rve so I removed setting OuterVS...

Hi Sergey, I've been reworking my code for drop caps. I'm using some code from the forum I found some time ago. Lii := TRVLabelItemInfo.Create(rv.RVData); FI := TFontInfo.Create(nil); try FI.FontName := rv.Style.TextStyles[0].FontName; FI.Size := (rv.Style.TextStyles[0].Size * 3); FI.StyleName := 'I...

Thanks Sergey

Candsoft, I had some misc compile errors too with initial install of 21.1. I think I closed Delphi and restarted and everything seemed to settle down. Not sure what the errors were now but things are OK. Using Delphi 10.3. Just FYI. Stan

Hi Sergey,

For my limited purpose, textout would probably have worked, but I changed Canvas.TextOut to Sender.TextStyles[StyleNo].Draw anyway.

I'll take a look at the example later today.

Thanks Sergey

Hi Sergey, I use an rve as a "cover page" in my app. It can have any background color. I also put text on that cover page and I thought it would be nice if I could display the text in "3D" so that text would show up no matter what color the background was. So, I came up with the ...

So this is not an easy task. Yes, I played around with TRVEditRVData(RichViewEdit.RVData).UndoList some time ago and thought I'd try it again today, and that was what I was beginning to think too, not an easy task. When I first looked at this, I did the following workaround which I'm still using: W...

Hi Sergey, Is there a way (or a way you can think of) to save a richviewedit undolist temporarily, and then restore it later? I use the same rve to display different docs. I'd like to store the undolist of the current doc right before I load another, and then restore the undolist when I reload the o...

OK, worth asking about it. I was afraid it might be too much change to be worth it. Well, maybe keep it in mind for the future.

Thanks Sergey
