Changing a Label's Font Style at run time [Edit]
IW14.0.22Ultimate. DelphiXE4. TIWLabel.OnMouseOver I'd like change the Font.Style to fsunderline. It appears compiler does not like any changes to font style beyond those established at design time. Is there a unit that I'm not including, or if not, does anyone know of any run-time work-arounds short of writing a css or adding the styles to an existing one? Thinking I might outsmart any style sheet or css I set the style as underline at design-time (component and region) so I could clear the style at MouseOver (which works) and then get it back on OnMouseOut, but it didn't...

How to change the size of the drop down at run time
Hi  I've placed several drop down lists in the Item Template of Grid View. I've been able to populate info into those drop down, however i had to restrict the size due to many controls in a single grid view. I need to do the following: 1) when the mouse is placed over an item in the drop down, the text has to be displayed as a Tool tip 2) otherwise i want to know how to increase the size of the drop down on the basis of the longest item in the lists. Thanks in advance.  Regards Nishant I don't think there's any elegant way to do this. The first thi...

How to change the font in menus at run time?
Hi, How to change the popup or MDI menu item's font at run time in PB, So that the multilanguage feature can be achieved. TIA AFAIK, it can't be done solely within your app. There's a registry setting for it, but it uses a long binary value to specify the font and size. And changing that value will affect EVERY menu on your system. Plus, you have to find a way to get Windows to refresh the display before the change will take effect. If you really want to go through all of that, let me know and I'll find the registry key for you. "Ewak" <...

Change edit style at run time
Hi, Is it possible to change the edit systle of a column at run time based on a condition, like edit to editmask at runtime? Thanks You could place two copies of the column on the datawindow in the same exact place, one as editmask and one as edit. Then put an expression on the visible property of both of them such that only one is visible at a time. A good way to do this is to have a hard coded value in your SQL statement then use SetItem in a script to change the value. The visible expressions would key off the value of this column. <Satish> wrote in message news...

Problem with DataWindow Size Change at Run-Time
I've noticed that the size of DataWindows is larger at run-time than at design time. At design time, I align several DataWindows together nicely in a form, but when I run my application with the form, all DataWindows grow in size and they don't fit in the form anymore. Any ideas? I'm using Optima++ 1.5. Ying Xie ...

Changing font size of FireMonkey TStringGrid
I have a tStringGrid displayed on sample IOS app using XE4 but cannot find anyway to change the font size which is tiny by default and just about unreadable.

Changing style properties at run-time [Edit]
I'm playing around with a FMX app for the first time, and I'm trying to do something really simple: {code} panel1.Color := clBlue; {code} After searching around using Google, on the discussion boards here, and elsewhere, all I've found is how to create a new style for every freaking possible combination of styles that you'd ever want and switch between them at run-time, and a tutorial on how to build a parser that searches through .style files and uses RTTI to use dynamic casting to look-up and change property values at run-time. Can somebody please show me a simpl...
