Delphi & RAD Studio Developer Direct Episode 5: Multi-Device Development - From Data to Business Information

Just posted the latest episode replay from last Friday, the May 17, 2013 edition of the Embarcadero Developer Direct online session (US and Canada edition) - "Multi-Device Development - From Data to Business Information".

This is a really interesting episode on how you can create apps that help your users and customers make sense of data using lists, charts, reports and more with Delphi, RAD Studio and C++Builder. Al Mannarino also demos creating an iOS app using the InterBase IBLite database which is included free (with a free unlimited deployment license) in Delphi XE4 and RAD Studio XE4. Then David I shows some cool ways to display data in mobile apps with graphs and charts and how to view changes in data over time on a map using FireMonkey 3D controls.



Sign up now for the April-June 2013 season of Developer Direct at http://embt.co/DevDir1. Join the team of Embarcadero development and industry experts for relaxed and fun demo and discussion sessions covering Delphi, RAD Studio, C++Builder, InterBase and more. Raise your questions and interact live with both presenters and attendees as each week a new theme gives focus and direction to solve the every day challenges that professional software developers face.

Multi-Device Tour: Natal

E ontem foi a vez de Natal receber o Tour de lançamento do RAD Studio XE4.

Assim como nas demais paradas, todos empolgados com nosso suporte para iOS e os planos para Android, além do habitual sucesso do FireDAC.

Neste dia contamos também com a ilustre presença dos MVPs Marcelo Varela e Alan Gomes.

Também não posso encerrar sem registrar a beleza de Natal, abaixo a vista próxima ao local do evento:

Programar em Delphi apreciando esta paisagem comprovadamente aumenta a produtividade ;-)

Obrigado Natal pela presença!

Changing the font for TMemo on iOS

In the iOS style, we have predefined the font size, color and font attributes for components like TMemo and TEdit.

If you want to change the default font size and font family, there are a couple of simple steps you need to follow:

  1. Select TMemo, and in the Object Inspector, go to the StyledSettings property and expand it.
  2. If you want to change the font size and font family (i.e. switching from Helvetica to Arial), you will need to uncheck ssFamily and ssSize.
  3. After unchecking those options, you are now able to change the font size and font family in the Font property for TMemo, since you are no longer using the default options that are provided by the style.

Multi-Device Tour: Recife

E antes que o dia termine, aqui estão as informações do evento na bela Recife!

Todos ficaram impressionados com nosso suporte para iOS, especialmente alguns usuários experientes de outras plataformas ;-)

Uma ótima reação também quanto a Visual LiveBindings e FireDAC!

Infelizmente não deu praia ;-) mas no mínimo algumas fotos eu consegui trazer de lembrança:

Uso del componente TListView en nuestras aplicaciones móviles

Esta entrada es una traducción al español del post "Using TListView in your mobile applications" escrito por Sarina DuPont en su blog personal de Embarcadero Techonologies.


En Delphi XE4 se ha introducido el componente TListView que está diseñado para listas largas de datos, desplazables y que dichos datos contengan un enlace a otra página.

Un buen ejemplo de cómo utilizar el componente TListView en nuestras aplicaciones móviles y que además puede ser visualizado tanto en teléfonos como en tablets, es utilizar una plantilla maestra. Podemos acceder a estas plantillas a través del wizard (asistente) de creación nuevas aplicaciones móviles: File -> New -> FireMonkey Mobile Application



Si echamos un vistazo al componente TListView en la vista de estructura (Structure), veremos la propiedad ItemAppearance. Esta propiedad puede ser expandida, lo que nos permite elegir entre diferentes elementos preestablecidos de visualización tanto para el modo de pantalla normal como par el modo de edición.

TListView soporta totalmente los LiveBindings. Dependiendo del estilo establecido a los ítems de la lista, veremos diferentes miembros enlazables de la TListView en el LiveBindings Designer el cual podemos enlazar al origen de los datos que queremos visualizar, por ejemplo, una consulta de base datos, un XML, etc.
