Could someone help me installing the “BGRAControls”. I have already
tried a lot, but I am not able to install it properly.

BGRAControls link: http://wiki.freepascal.org/BGRAControls

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi Student043,

Welcome to the forum.
1. Download "bgrabitmap8.7.zip" from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazpaint/files/src/
2. Unzip to Component directory
3. Open then compile bgrabitmappack.lpk
4. Create/Open a project. Go to Menu-->Project-->Project
Inspector-->Required packages-->Right Click-->Add-->Package
Name-->type BGRABitmapPack-->Create new Requirement
5. Add  BGRABitmap to the uses clauses

regards,
GetMem

Dear GetMem,

Thank you very much for you fast and clear response, but it doesn't
seem to work for me. I think something went wrong with "Add-->Package
Name-->type BGRABitmapPack". Which file do I have to choose?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Hi
If you download the following 2 zip files and extract them to wherever
you have your thirdparty components folder

My Folder Structure is very simple one
Main Folder is called 'My_Projects_And_Components' and within this
folder I have folders called 'Projects' and another called
'Components'.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazpaint/files/src/bgrabitmap8.7.zip/d
ownload

http://sourceforge.net/projects/bgra-controls/files/bgra-
controls-3.0/bgracontrols-3.6-2015-05-02.zip/download

Once you have extracted these 2 files, install the bgrabitmappack.lpk
package ( there are others if you are using fpgui opengl etc).
Once this has compiled, you can now compile and install the
bgracontrols.lpk package. (you will get a prompt saying it will
install bgrabitmap 8.7; just click ok).
When it has finished the install, it wil prompt you to rebuild
lazarus. Click Yes, when it has finished you will see the BGRAcontrol
tab with all the controls in your pallette at the top.

Note the BGRABITMAP does not have a any visual controls.

Hope that helps in getting you going.

Josh.
