Re: Preset RVAction Dialog Properties

OK, thanks for clarification. Yes, that would be great if you have time to do it.

Re: Preset RVAction Dialog Properties

Hi Sergey,

Mode 1: This is how I'm using it now. I set the para properties in my rve first, then I show the dialog which I can use to make any additional changes.

Mode 2: This would not be what I'd want. I can set the properties needed in code now and don't need to do it using a hidden UI action ...

Preset RVAction Dialog Properties

Hi Sergey,

Is there a way to set the RVEParagraphrvActionParaBorder properties before I show the dialog? I'd like to "preset" the background color, text margins and padding values right before opening the dialog.

Thanks

Re: Doc Thumbnail

Sergey,

I finally had a chance to implement this and it works. I use some rvf files as "covers" (i.e., a little text with a big central image) in my app. Creating thumbnails of the files in my covers folder lets me select files visually in the open dialog which is much better than just seeing ...

Re: CopyRTF very slow

Hi Sergey,

Yes, vcl, I don't have lazarus and I don't do any fmx.

I watched the code after I excluded rvoAutoCopyRTF in design time and it still ran the copyrtf in copydef. I checked my code to make sure I wasn't changing the option somewhere and I couldn't find it. At any rate, it works the way I ...

CopyRTF very slow

Hi Sergey,

I'm using the latest version 21.3 of the rve.

It looks like CopyDef will automatically copy RVF, ANSI text, Unicode text, and RTF text from the rve selection. However, it was sometimes very slow to work. After some checking I found that it was the CopyRTF where things slowed down ...

Re: Can't get HunSpell to work C++ Builder

Andy,

I did a test app a while ago to test spelling. I found I had to have the right DLL (I used the one that came in the richview demos), and it had to be in the same folder as the exe. I used a dictionary called en_US.dic. Not sure where I got that from but it can't be one of the fancier multi ...

Re: Document Attachments and RVAttachedFile

Hi Sergey,

Yes, this works as well as the base64 method but without the size limits. I was able to store and retrieve a 131MB audio project with no problems.

I don't plan to store much of anything as "attachments," but if I do need to do that it's good to know I can do it without issues.

Thanks ...

Document Attachments and RVAttachedFile

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 ...

Re: RichViewActions components not on Lazarus palette

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 ...

Re: Disable Undo/Redo temporarily

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.

You'd probably have to set it to the current undo count:

Doc Thumbnail

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

Re: Drop Caps (TRVLabel)

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

Re: Drop Caps (TRVLabel)

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:
