My TListView control has ShowHints enabled and handles the OnInfoTip event. The message in the popup InfoTip box is set in the OnInfoTip handler. However, the position of the popup InfoTip box is relative to the position of the mouse when hovering over an item in the list. There doesn't appear to be a way to customise the position.
Is it possible set the position of the hint popup, for example in a specific area of the TListView or even elsewhere on the form outside the bounds of the TListView control? Ideally, I'd like to display the hint popup in such a way to minimise (or eliminate) obscuring any other item in the TListView.
First you have to expose the CMHintShow of the TListView as following:
type
TListView = class(Vcl.ComCtrls.TListView)
private
FPos: TPoint;
protected
procedure CMHintShow(var Message: TCMHintShow); message CM_HINTSHOW;
published
property MyPos: TPoint read FPos write FPos;
end;
TfrmMain = class(TForm)
...
ListView1: TListView;
Then at the OnInfoTip event you set the desired Position. At my example, I get the coords of the TopLeft Corner of a ScrollBox (sbxFilter - which is located under the TlistView) and pass the Coords to the TListView property MyPos.
procedure TfrmMain.ListView1InfoTip(Sender: TObject; Item: TListItem; var InfoTip: string);
var
p: TPoint;
begin
InfoTip := 'Test';
p := sbxFilter.ClientToScreen(point(0, 0));
ListView1.MyPos := p;
end;
{ TListView }
procedure TListView.CMHintShow(var Message: TCMHintShow);
begin
inherited;
Message.HintInfo.HintPos := FPos;
end;
It is possible to display the hint, that you define in the OnInfoTip() event in e.g. a StatusPanel of a StatusBar (at the bottom of the form).
For example:
procedure TForm1.ListView1InfoTip(Sender: TObject; Item: TListItem;
var InfoTip: string);
begin
InfoTip := '';
StatusBar1.Panels[0].Text := 'ListView Infotip, Item '+IntToStr(Item.Index);
end;
i have dxMemData with image Filed, and some png images located in ressource, i expose this images by singleton object like that:
type
ImagesRessource = class
private
constructor Create;
public
Man24: TPngImage;
Woman24: TPngImage;
RSMan24: TResourceStream;
RSWoman24: TResourceStream;
procedure Load_Man24;
procedure Load_Woman24;
end;
var
Images: ImagesRessource;
implementation
constructor ImagesRessource.Create;
begin
Load_Man24;
Load_Woman24;
end;
procedure ImagesRessource.Load_Man24;
begin
Man24 := TPngImage.Create;
RSMan24 := TResourceStream.Create(hInstance, 'men_24', RT_RCDATA);
Man24.LoadFromStream(RSMan24);
end;
procedure ImagesRessource.Load_Woman24;
begin
Woman24 := TPngImage.Create;
RSWoman24 := TResourceStream.Create(hInstance, 'woman_24', RT_RCDATA);
Woman24.LoadFromStream(RSWoman24);
end;
initialization
Images := ImagesRessource.Create;
end.
after that, filling the dxMemeData like that
if(dxMemData1.FieldByName('isMale').AsBoolean) then TBlobField(dxMemData1.FieldByName('SexeImg')).LoadFromStream(OverB.Besalama.Properties.V7.Images.RSMan24)
else TBlobField(dxMemData1.FieldByName('SexeImg')).LoadFromStream(OverB.Besalama.Properties.V7.Images.RSWoman24);
the problem now with cxGrid, the image column dosnt't show any thing! i don't know why? or how to create cxgrid image ?
To display Image on CxGrid columns, set the column propertys to ImageComboBox and set Images to a imagelist.
On a Form I've put a Paintbox with the property Align = alClient and a Button.
I need to draw a object of Canvas type inside the PaintBox in the OnClick event of the Button.
This is the Canvas object that will be created:
const IconSize:Integer = 10
type
Icon = Class
public
posX, posY:Integer;
constructor Create(X,Y:Integer);
destructor Destroy;
procedure SetX(AValue: Integer);
procedure SetY(AValue: Integer);
published
property LocationX : Integer read posX write SetX;
property LocationY : Integer read posY write SetY;
end;
var CanvasIcon: Icon;
This is constructor method of the object:
constructor Icon.Create(X, Y: Integer);
var Bitmap:TBitmap;
begin
Bitmap:=TBitmap.Create;
try
Bitmap.Height := IconSize;
Bitmap.Width := IconSize;
Bitmap.Canvas.Pen.Color := clBlack;
Bitmap.Canvas.Rectangle(Round(X-(IconSize/2)), Round(Y-(IconSize/2)),
Round(X+(IconSize/2)), Round(Y+(IconSize/2)));
PaintBox.Canvas.Draw(0, 0, Bitmap);
finally
Bitmap.Free;
end;
end;
This is the OnClick event of the Button:
procedure TFormPaintBox.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
CanvasIcon:=Icon.Create(10,10);
end;
However, the Lazarus show the follow message:
src/unitpaintbox.pas(121,33) Error: Wrong number of parameters specified for call to "Create"
But the constructor receive two parameters, exactly like was specified on onClick event of the Button. How to solve this problem?
i m using stringgrid in my application.The data is fetched from the database(backend mysql) and displayed in stringgrid.
I want to insert image in status cell of each row.
i.e.
if status =online then -->image1
else --->image2
anyone has any idea regarding how to do this?
You will have to implement the OnDrawCell event.
Example :
procedure TForm1.StringGrid1DrawCell(Sender: TObject; ACol, ARow: Longint;
Rect: TRect; State: TGridDrawState);
var
s: string;
aCanvas: TCanvas;
begin
if (ACol <> 1) or (ARow = 0) then
Exit;
s := (Sender as TStringGrid).Cells[ACol, ARow];
// Draw ImageX.Picture.Bitmap in all Rows in Col 1
aCanvas := (Sender as TStringGrid).Canvas; // To avoid with statement
// Clear current cell rect
aCanvas.FillRect(Rect);
// Draw the image in the cell
if (s = 'online') then
aCanvas.Draw(Rect.Left, Rect.Top, Image1.Picture.Bitmap)
else
aCanvas.Draw(Rect.Left, Rect.Top, Image2.Picture.Bitmap);
end;
I'm trying to find a grid which is especially designed to show images. It needs to have good performance too, and preferably with some sort of thumbnail cache. The images need to be loaded from files, and it would be good if images can be assigned dynamically too. It shouldn't work on a list of col/row records like standard grids, but a single list of items, each item representing an image. There should be a property to define col width and row height for all cols and rows at once, not one at a time. The end goal is to list all images with user options to control how large to display the images. It will be used as a product display, so there needs to be some sort of custom drawing capability too, like an OnDrawItem event. This may display up to 50,000 images in this list, so TListView won't work, as it's very heavy for this.
It needs to work with Delphi 2010, XE2, and preferably 7 too.
Here's 3 examples of how to display 8 images below. I don't mean each image being a different size, but exactly the same size. No 2 columns can have different widths, and same with rows.
For the fun of it, I wrote an ImageGrid component for you.
It has only a vertical scroll bar; resizing the width of the control adjusts the column count and row count. The images are cached as resized bitmaps in an internal list, along with their file names.
Because loading and resampling these images may take some time, depending on image count, resolution and whether you want to use the Graphics32 library for better resample quality, the component delegates the loading process to a separate thread, which (re)runs on setting the column width or the row height, and on changing the file names or the folder path in which the component tries to find all images of types to be supplied in the FileFormats property.
Features:
Creates and resizes image thumbs in a background thread, from file names with the GDI+ library or from manually added images with the Graphics 32 library
Automatically recognizes all registered image file formats
Animated scrolling
Touchscreen support for scrolling by dragging the grid
Keyboard support for selecting thumbs
OwnerDraw support, e.g. for adding captions to the thumbs
Virtual support for bypassing the automatic creation of thumbs
Properties and events:
ColCount: number of columns, readonly
Count: number of images, readonly
Images: list of all manually added images where the thumbs are internally created from

Thumbs: list of all internally created thumbs
AutoHideScrollBar: hides the scroll bar when all rows are visible
BorderStyle: shows or hides themed border
BorderWidth: margin of the component, outside of the scroll bar
CellAlignment: alignes thumbs at the left, center or right of the cell
CellHeight: height of cell
CellLayout: alignes thumbs at the top, middle or bottom of the cell
CellSpacing: spacing between the cells
CellWidth: width of cell
Color: background color of border and cell spacing
ColWidth: width of column (equals width of cell plus cell spacing)
DefaultDrawing: draws all thumbs by default
DesignPreview: shows thumbs in the designer
DragScroll: supports scrolling the grid by draging the grid
FileFormats: image file name extensions by which the file names are filtered
FileNames: list holding all file names
Folder: the directory in which the component tries to find all images files
ItemIndex: selected cell index
MarkerColor: color of temporarily thumb marker during loading process
MarkerStyle: style of temporarily thumb marker during loading process
OnClickCell: fires when a cell is clicked
OnDrawCell: fires when a cell is drawn
OnMeasureThumb: fires when the size of a thumb is to be calculated
OnProgress: fires when an image is resized to thumb format
OnUnresolved: fires when a thumb cannot be created, e.g. when file name is not found
RetainUnresolvedItems: keeps empty thumbs in the list
RowHeight: the row height (equals cell height plus cell spacing)
ParentBackground: draws the (themed) background of the parent in the border and between the cells
Proportional: resizes images proportionally
Sorted: file names are sorted
Stretch: stretches small images up to the cell size
VirtualMode: prevents of automatically creating the thumbs
WheelScrollLines: number of rows to be scrolled with mouse wheel

{ TCustomImageGrid
The base class of an image grid. It shows images from left to right, then
from top to bottom. The number of columns is determined by the width of the
control, possibly resulting in a vertical scroll bar. The coord size is set
by ColWidth and RowHeight, being the sum of CellWidth resp. CellHeight plus
CellSpacing. Each cell shows a thumb of the corresponding image. The control
automatically starts a thumbs generating background thread when an image's
graphic, filename or its cell size is changed. Before every such change, any
previously created thread is terminated. Combine multiple changes by calling
Items.BeginUpdate/Items.EndUpdate to prevent the thread from being recreated
repeatedly. }

I'm using the multi-image view from the ImageEn library. It does everything you asked for, and it's very fast. I'm happy with it. You can still get an older, free version from Torry that works with Delphi 7 (I haven't tried it on XE2).
The methods aren't exactly intuitive, but once you get the hang of it (nice help file included), it works great.
The latest version has some more features, and it's not expensive if you do decide to license it.
You can see a video of ImageEn multi-image view in action in my application.
They even have a Flow View control that looks like the slide show on a Mac.
