| 5 | 1. Editing notebook activepage, cannot select from dropdown list. (Actually, requires IDE enhancements.
|
|---|
| 6 | But could provide a property editor.)
|
|---|
| 7 |
|
|---|
| 8 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 9 | 2. Additional zero written when copying zero-terminated strings
|
|---|
| 10 | - Fixed in SP4
|
|---|
| 11 | - Fixed in v2.0.3.1
|
|---|
| 12 |
|
|---|
| 13 | This is a bug in StringCopy in SysUtils. [NB There are also StrCOpy functions
|
|---|
| 14 | in Strings.pas and System.pas!]
|
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 17 | 3. Hint windows don't always deactivate properly
|
|---|
| 18 | - Does not correctly detect when app focus lost.
|
|---|
| 19 | However, this is
|
|---|
| 20 | very tricky to do well on OS/2. Other apps have the same problem. Most
|
|---|
| 21 | compatible solution is discussed on EDM... (?)
|
|---|
| 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 24 | 4. Too much useage of Private in SPCC
|
|---|
| 25 | A design flaw, but copied from Delphi :-(
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | Prevents fixing bugs or enhancements without copying code. Could change to protected
|
|---|
| 28 |
|
|---|
| 29 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 30 | 5. Bitmap button disabled drawing looks bad in some situations
|
|---|
| 31 | Better disable picture. Use psAlternate (psInsideFrame before FP4).
|
|---|
| 32 | Or generate/load proper disabled bitmap
|
|---|
| 33 |
|
|---|
| 34 | Fixed in SPCC v2.0.3.6
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 37 | 6. Radio button group item index cannot be set until visible
|
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 | Fixed in SPCC v2.0.3.7
|

|
|---|
| 41 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 42 | 7. Need popup index for listbox and outline
|
|---|
| 43 | When right mouse popup menu is activated, it's not possible to
|
|---|
| 44 | tell which item was right clicked.
|
|---|
| 45 | Alternatively, could set the item index
|
|---|
| 46 | - Not fixed
|
|---|
| 47 |
|
|---|
| 48 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 49 | 8. File controls cannot be refreshed through code
|
|---|
| 50 | Directory outline, directorylistbox, filelistbox
|
|---|
| 51 |
|
|---|
| 52 | - ?
|
|---|
| 53 |
|
|---|
| 54 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 55 | 9. StringLists, Memo lines etc are limited to 255 chars.
|
|---|
| 56 | No good solution until AnsiStrings are finished.
|
|---|
| 57 |
|
|---|
| 58 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 59 | 10. Nothing resets TForm.FIsModal...
|
|---|
| 60 |
|
|---|
| 61 | 10b. Apparent duplication between fismodal and fmodalshowing
|
|---|
| 62 |
|
|---|
| 63 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 64 | 11. Task list entries being left behind when app closes (fp4)
|
|---|
| 65 | Fixed in FP4 refresh
|
|---|
| 66 |
|
|---|
| 67 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 68 | 12. Font allocation
|
|---|
| 69 | There seem to be memory problems with frequently changing font.
|
|---|
| 70 | ( ? Related to font dereferencing bug, see below?)
|
|---|
| 71 |
|
|---|
| 72 | [NB Sibyl does not use the OS/2 logical font mechanism. Each time the font
|
|---|
| 73 | is changed on a canvas the old font is destroyed and a new one create.
|
|---|
| 74 | This is not efficient for drawing with several different fonts.
|
|---|
| 75 |
|
|---|
| 76 | However, this is more of an enhancement than a bug fix].
|

|

|
|---|
| 79 | 13. Problem dereferencing fonts: Crash in Font Dialog
|
|---|
| 80 | Fixed in v2.0.3.1
|
|---|
| 81 |
|
|---|
| 82 | When Sibyl library destroys a font due to the usecount being zero, the
|
|---|
| 83 | TFont reference is still left as non-nil.
|
|---|
| 84 |
|
|---|
| 85 | This makes the font dialog crash on the second or later useage. It would
|
|---|
| 86 | also cause other font problems, depending on how you use them.
|
|---|
| 87 |
|
|---|
| 88 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 89 | 14. Combo box does not drop down on click
|
|---|
| 90 | You have to click the V button, clicking within the edit is not enough.
|
|---|
| 91 |
|
|---|
| 92 | Fixed in Fp4 (not quite properly - missing double click handling)
|
|---|
| 93 | Fixed in v2.0.3.4
|
|---|
| 94 |
|
|---|
| 95 | 14a. Cannot click and drag thru combo
