TDateTimeEdit lazarus / 31-LCL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- fpcoder · 2014-01-24 15:36 I was looking for a DateTime Picker, but couldnt find one installed in Lazarus. After some searching I found a very good one: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/ZVDateTimeControls_Package Delphi used to have a DateTime Picker on the win32 tab. Perhaps Lazarus should have one too, as default? Could be under the common controls tab. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BigChimp · 2014-01-24 15:40 The licenses are compatible, so you could ask the devs for this by raising an item in the bugtracker... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- exdatis · 2014-01-24 16:24 After install, ZVDateTime is on "Date and Times Ctrls" tab and there is (default) TDateEdit on "Misc" tab. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BigChimp · 2014-01-24 19:23 @Exdatis: are you sure? And which Laz version? I just checked Laz 1.2RC2, right click component palette, view all search for date, & only find TDateEdit, TDateTimeIntervalChartSource and TPSImportDateUtils. There's no Date and Times Ctrls tab there either... Perhaps you're talking about CodeTyphon? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- JanRoza · 2014-01-24 20:42 BigChimp, ExDatis is correct. After installation in Lazarus (snapshot 1.3 in my case) there really is a tab 'Date and Times Ctrls'. I've been using this component since Lazarus 0.9 and it always installed correctly and gave me good service ever since. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- exdatis · 2014-01-24 22:04 Thank you, JanRoza, you're right.  BigChimp, maybe I did not clearly wrote, I thought after installing ZVDateTime there is 'Date and Time Ctrls' tab. I use Lazarus 1.0.14, not CodeTyphon(long time ago) and eagerly waiting for  1.2. Best regards! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BigChimp · 2014-01-25 09:15 Ah ok, now it's clear even to me Thanks. So, the point I was making is that the zvdatetime license is compatible with the one Lazarus uses, so perhaps it is possible to get some controls into regular Lazarus (because they're useful and apparently Delphi has a similar control).... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- JuhaManninen · 2014-01-25 09:58 Quote from: BigChimp on January 25, 2014, 10:15:10 amSo, the point I was making is that the zvdatetime license is compatible with the one Lazarus uses, so perhaps it is possible to get some controls into regular Lazarus (because they're useful and apparently Delphi has a similar control).... That is the plan indeed. I asked from the component't author at this forum for permission to include it in LCL. He agreed. Component's name will become compatible with Delphi. Then I became busy with my new work and the plan was delayed. Now I must fix some issues for Lazarus 1.2. I will return to this later. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BigChimp · 2014-01-25 10:26 Thanks Juha. Sorry for repeating the obvious then ---------------------------------------------------------------------- exdatis · 2014-01-25 11:07 Great news for all! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- fpcoder · 2014-01-25 20:40 Thanks for the response guys! When its pre-installed it also means one less tab on the component palette.
