Hey all, I'm new to web frameworks for Delphi and looking at unigui to see what it can do for me. I'm looking if it's possible to create a control which looks something like this: Both left and right side are separately clickable, the left side now also can function as a 'progress bar'. Is it feasible to build something like this with unigui? What would be a good approach? Start with something like a Panel and put extra controls on there? Paint everything with a canvas? Curious to your thoughts! Thanks :)

Hi, I have my custom controls that I have derived from different classes like TComponent, TControls, TWinControl, TCustomPanel etc. Now I want to use them into UniGUI application. I do not want to rewrite the code of my control for UniGUI, what I want is to change/modify the implementation (wherever required) so that I can use the same control over UniGUI application. As of now I tried to change the hierarchy of my controls to corresponding UniGUI classes such as TUniControl, TUniComponent etc. and overridden few methods such as ConfigJSClasses, VCLControlClassName, WebCreate etc. but it is not working as I am expecting. Please suggest is this the right way to go? If Yes then what else is required to make is work? If NO then please suggest a solution for this? Thanks in Advance.

Hi, everyone, In standard Delphi VCL for the desktop it is possible to create new VCL visual components the easy way of the hard way. The hard way is to create everything in code and hope that it will render correctly later. You design it first and export the design to code. The easy way is to keep always everything as a RAD design. You can do that by using TFrame and converting it to a control (exposing the internal properties or hiding them), or by embedding the TFrame in the control. I'll like to use the same "easy option" with uniGUI, but I need to encapsulate the frame so that the only published and visible properties come from the control. It looks like inheriting from TUniContainerPanel could be a solution. If that is correct, where can I find some demo code for testing it? I'm interested in providing design time support for that new component, like activating a database connection and showing a live grid. Thanks, David Izada Rodriguez
