Hi,

I create a small component descanted from TCustomControl which hold a TRichView inside itself and Paint RichView content into it's canvas. Here it's:


unit TransparentRichView;

interface

uses Messages, Windows, Classes, Forms, Graphics, Controls, RichView;

type
TTransparentRichView ...

Ok... I think I make things too complicated. Simply I need a transparent RichView control.

Hi,

I want to create a translucent TRichView control. Background of the control should be translucent (for example with Alpha = 155) and Texts are fully visible.

There are two ideas I'm thinking of for creating such controlg:

1- Paint TRichView into another Canvas and change alpha of white pixels ...

Oh, Sorry I am such a freak. But anyway Thank you

Hi,

I want implement a very simple annotation in TRichViewEdit. Storing annotation text inside TRichView using item tags could done simply. Also every time user need to see the Annotation I could read it from the item tags. But what I want to do is showing Annotation visually to users (Like ...

Hi jbovey
It would be great if you share it with us

I think you could use this:

var
AStream: TMemoryStream;
begin
AStream := TMemoryStream.Create;
RichViewEdit1.SaveRVFToStream(AStream, True); // Copy the Selection into Stream
AStream.Position:=0;
RichViewEdit2.InsertRVFFromStream(AStream);
RichViewEdit2.Format;
end;

I type the code in ...

Thank you Sergey for optimization and code correction.

Actually writing this component is not so hard. I did not have enough time But I wrote a very simple component:
unit RVAttachedFile;

interface

uses
SysUtils, Classes, Controls, Windows, Registry, ShellAPI, Variants, Graphics;

type
PHICON = ^HICON;
TRVAttachedFile = class(TGraphicControl ...

I would just get the icon from the file at the time it was attached.
I did not think this is right approach. Assume user attached a DOC file when he has installed Microsoft Office 2003. A week later he/she may upgrade to Microsoft Office 2007. Then we he/she open the document, will see icon of old ...

>> but can this be done at any point in the document by an enduser?
One of the most important advantages of TRichView is that you could insert component in every position of the document. Actually all component derived from TControls can add to TRichView. These controls could easily save into ...

I forgot to mention that Compnent Paint method should paint corresponding file icon in regard to FileType property and the FileName.

Actually for my use it should not show a picture to end user. But Yes you could inherit the component from TGraphicControl. I think in your case the component should named TRVAttachedDoc. This TRVAttachedDoc should has 3 property

1- FileName: String
2- Content: TFileStream
3- FileType: TRVFileType ...

Andrew, I think there is more easier and flexible way. You could write a small component that derived from TControl and named TDocRepository. It should has a property named Attachments: TOwnedCollectionItem. "Attachments" class TCollectionItem should be another class named "Attachment" with a ...

Could you please make this available in next version? I need it urgently for my project.

Thank you
