well, I may be once again the only one. I may have purchased a broken copy
after all <g>
Images list in large projects: adding images takes AGES for Delphi to
re-link the resource of the form and add the image. I can provide just
another avi video for the unbelievers.
I don't want to talk about the 9 years old problem when adding an image to
the list places it in the wrong order (I have no hope for this to be fixed
no more...) |

The way imageList works is just increadibly cumbersome. There were
some attempts to implement a proper custom component designer,
but with very little success.
imageList just barely cuts it for the purpose it was designed for.
Here is what I would like to so:
- ability to add and delete images at any index
- link images to actual files on the drive so that when the file
changes, selecting an update, will update all the images in the
imageList from their source.
- full blown image editor
Thanks!

While a video may prove your point it isn't an entry in QC
(http://qc.borland.com/) which IMO would go a lot further towards
getting resources here to investigate the problem.
Please, log this in QC if you haven't done so already.

For various reasons, I have all TImageLIst components in a global object
(a data-module) containing NOTHING else. No code, and no other
components. This makes life better in so many ways.
