    Hi,

    I have some columns in my dbgrid.

    They can be filtering.

    but when my filter is a uniChekComboBox, i want to up the width, because the column has a little widthimage.png.a2e3e3751e2adc463c7e9f265c82f9d2.png

    Is there a way to up the items width ?

     

     

     

     

     

    Hi Didier, 

    How did you manage to put a check list in the combobox for the Grid Filter?

     

    Regards

     

    Jose

    Contabo is the best in cost and server capacity 

    That's not true,  the VPS  at contabo are the cheapest but  the perfomance is not good, I've used their VPS for 4 years , and it was just "OK" , now I'm using dedicated servers from OVH for the same price and you just cannot compare the speed of a Dedicated server vs a VPS, it's another beast, so now for 60 euros I have 2 dedicated server one Linux for postgresSQL and another with Windows for unigui apps. Check they ECO server price list https://eco.ovhcloud.com/en/#filterType=range_element&filterValue=so you start

  3. Erich, thats a lot of good questions...

    One thing I can say is that Linux server are cheapers than windows servers, but I don't know if apache is faster than IIS. I made some tests comparing IIS vs Apache in a windows machine and IIS was always faster. In Linux I don't know how fast is Apache comparing to a IIS on Windows.

    I seems to me so far the only advantage is the cheaper webhosting.

    Does anyone have something else to share about this?

    Hi everyone,

    This post has two parts:

    1. A complaint about the development speed of uniGUI (and about the transparency about its progress)
    2. Alternative solutions like TMS Web Core

    Your complaint is valid because the progress in uniGUI development slowed down this year (good reasons or bad reasons, it doesn't matter). Also, the Roadmap 2019 was very ambitious and it was affected by the slower speed. You are right on this point.

    The second point is not right for most of the developers using uniGUI. Let me explain why (before I get lynched without jury or trial).

    The main goal of uniGUI is to bring the power of a Delphi desktop application to the web and doing so while preserving what makes Delphi one of the best RAD tools ever created.

    Some people could be smiling now but let me mention a few things we take for granted in Delphi:

    • Visual form designer with property editors and under-the-hook links to data modules containing datasets, action lists, and all kinds of events (no need for pesky MVC,/MVVC, or any other over-complicated and over-engineered tools except pure and clean Delphi).
    • Data grids that get linked at design time and just work.
    • Clear separation of the user interface and the business logic using forms and data modules.

    Any common application requires a database and if you need a scalable application, you will need a good middle tier for connecting to it and managing the connections from multiple clients. This scenario was always a problem for client/server applications written in Delphi because each one of them used a data module for its connection, but so did every other client. Products like RemObjects DataAbstract were created for solving this issue. With uniGUI, you get your server which holds that data module and DataAbstract becomes a luxury you don't really need. As soon as HyperServer runs as a Server Farm, you will be able to handle as many clients as your server infrastructure can handle.

    On the other hand, you can have all your code in JavaScript and that doesn't mean that your application can scale, it is just that you will need to create your own server and manage your connections.

    I could expand my answer, but it should be enough.

    My last comment is that TMS Web Core is not the only "alternative". Even the old IntraWeb is trying to create a "revolution" by over-promising, under-delivering, and trying to reinvent the wheel. All these products are years behind what uniGUI currently offers.

    We want more, we want everything! But just try any of the alternatives and you will see the difference.

    As a parting gift.

    Last year I was requested to develop a relatively simple application but using IntraWeb plus CGDevTools.

    After a few days, I finally discovered that they didn't have modal forms and the tricky solution they offered only worked for simple pop up messages.

    It took me a couple of weeks to create a generic solution that worked "almost" like a modal form. Another week to discover that none of the dataset events were really supported by their grids and that my assumptions were wrong about being capable of working Delphi-style. In the end, I learned a lot of idiosyncrasies about the product, deliver my project, and became convinced that IW + CGDevTools (including jQuery) was a waste of time.

    Anyone is welcomed to repeat the experience...

    Sorry for the rant.

    I totally agree about  IW+ CGDevtools a waste of time and money

    Can you share modified theme for 1.70.14* version..

    or anybody help wich file change neptune theme?

    I'm still using version 1.0.0.1424, an old version. didn't have the time to upgrade because  upgrading will force me to readjust almost all of my forms design.

    Hi Donlego,

    In this form I have a containerpanel, inside of it I put a Tunihtmlframe  named backhtml  with property  Align=Client.

    Also inside the containerpanel I have a panel with the elements for the login, this panel is Alignment=taCenter and AlignmentControl=uniAlgunmentClient.

     

    In my sermodule in CustomCSS I have this style

     .mainbackground
    {
     background-image:url('files/images/mybackgound.jpg');
     background-repeat:no-repeat;
     width:100%;
     height:100%;
    }

    then in uniformcreate Event I have this code 

     backhtml.HTML.Add('<div class="mainbackground"></div>');

     

    and thats it

    Why using json? And how connect dataset to json file? Can you simple source or link where i read

    Hi CoderU,

    I don't use direct connection to the database  because of scability, maybe it become a litle slowers thats true, but on the other hand I can have more connections and less consumption of memory in the server.

    I user the excelent Mormot Framework, Fast and reliable, I use  a query server, you can check it on the samples 16 of the mormot samples.

    Momort provides fantastic function to conver Json to Data Set and viceversa, it's easy to use.

    So my application is a multitier architecture,  APPLICATION + QUERYSERVER.
