Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2005 7:46 am Post subject: [ANN] Component Bar Expert (CompBAR) v.1.0.5 beta 1 availabl |
|
|
Hello delphians,
CompBAR v1.0.5 beta 1 with D2005-D2006 support is now available.
Get it from http://www.compbar.org
--
The wide array of already installed components offered by delphi/builder, as
well as the plethora of components available for download (one of the
strength of delphi) simultaneously creates a usability issue: The component
palette provided by delphi has not managed to offer users the ability to
locate components quickly and easily. The solution: CompBAR has arrived to
make using the existing component palette obsolete by offering a wide range
of organizational and search capabilities.

Hello dageek,
I have sent you two year's ago an enhanced version of CompBar but got never
an answer.
I have added a TreeView to your component bar.
Shall I upload the code and component to borland.public.attachements ?
Regards,
Sam

Hello Samuel,

Subject: Re: ComponentBAR Improvements
Hello Herzog,
Thanx for your time improving compbar ...
A treeview mode is an interresting alternate view ... keep on
improving your idea and if you need help feel free to contact me
again.
PS: CompBar will be part of GEXperts so let me first know about your
final changes. I will implement them as soon as possible and I will
release a new version if till then Erik has not finished the merging
or releasing CompBAR with GExperts ...
Thanx again

Well, since then the reports that I have got is that the power of CompBAR is
that there are no categories (or at least no *raw* treeview categories ot
tabs) visible so the users can filter their selections having . I am thing
of a smarter way to handle categories ... you are welcome to make your
proposals (or anyone else).
For the time beeing it is faster to locate a category by showing them in a
popup menu and clicking once instead of scrolling down the listbox. Please
take in account that many CompBAR users do *not* have their CompBAR occupied
the maximiun size as you, me or others have.

dageek

Thank you for your answer.
So something went wrong on my side.
I will not distribute my TreeView Version to the public then. I think it
would create confusion for the users if there
are two compBar packages around.

That's great news. I just installed it and am grateful to have
wildcard searches back.
One thing that I've noticed missing as compared to the BCB6 version is
the "configure palette" item in the category list. Since you used
Borland's configuration dialog before and it is no longer available I
can understand why it's missing.
However, as Borland does no longer provide a reasonable way of
organizing components I, for one, would like to see you implement
something like the old Borland configure palette feature.

Although the component palette in D2006 is better than the classic, I
think this is much better. Thanks!!!!!!
