Please help - how to remove this yellow line in C++Builder: Community Edition?
It's pretty distracting in this cozy dark interface :) I've googled this line, but failed to find.. And tried bunch of options, but failed to find this line.. :(
I'm not sure if you can remove the yellow bar, as it is integrated into the Code Editor. However, you can change its color to mesh better with your dark theme, at least.
Per the Code Editor documentation:
Change Bars
The left margin of the Code Editor displays a green change bar to indicate lines that have not been changed in the current editing session. A yellow change bar indicates that changes have been made since the last File > Save operation.
You can, however, customize the change bars to display in colors other than the default green and yellow. Select Tools > Options > User Interface > Editor Options > Color. In the Element drop-down menu, select Modified Line then change the foreground and the background colors.

I want to implement a bar at the bottom of the screen with the home button - exactly like in Instagram or Messanger apps. I was trying to use a tab bar (https://developer.apple.com/ios/human-interface-guidelines/bars/tab-bars/)
And I would like to utilize system home icon for the tab bar button/item (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiapplicationshortcuticontype/1623374-home)
Is there any simple and straight forward way to set this home icon for the tab bar item?
Some icons can be selected directly from the list in the button/item properties in Xcode, but this home icon is not among them.
I also saved the png from the link above, resized it to 30x30 and added as a picture for the button/item, but it's just showing a grey rectangle.
Apple may or may not provide you with some images. In general no one uses stock images but provide their own. You should do the same.
So "Adding home icon to the tab bar" is pretty much the same as for any other tab bar item. You can add your image and/or text that represents your "home" button. Some images may already be at your disposal but others must be made/bought/stolen by you.
The image you use in tab bar item is only used as a mask and not as an explicit image. What that means is that only alpha component of the image will be taken. In your case you have a black icon on white background which from alpha perspective means you have a rectangle. You will need to remove the white background and make it transparent or use another image that already has these properties.
I am not sure for tab bar but you might also try to open your assets, select your image and then in options on the right find "Render as" and set it to "Original image". Even if this will work the results will not be as you desire (at least in most cases) due to a white background on the image.
In general this option is used to set it to "template" which means whenever you use this image on your components such as UIImageView it will use it's tint color and image alpha component instead of the actual colors from the image. It is a very useful tool but again I am not sure it will work on tab bar item.
You should stop wondering if Xcode is designed to be overcomplicated. Putting aside numerous amount of bugs (and there is really a lot of them) and it being slow (it really used to be faster) it is designed very nicely. But tab bar view controller is extremely high level component. If you don't like it the way it is then simply create your own. All you need is a bottom view with your N buttons which may be shaped any way you can possibly imagine and a container view on which you set a new view controller when one of those buttons is pressed.
Please be kind, I did my best with google, and found some guidance (also on StackOverflow), but none of it works for me.
FMX form with FMX Progressbar;
I only want to change the progressbar color from ugly yellow to cool skyBlue.
So far I've dropped a stylebook on the form;
I've added "progresscellstyle.htrack.hindicator" to the stylesheet designer;
It's the only one that even provides me with a color option (vs everything in "progressbarstyle treeitem") and that color does not influence my progressbar colour.
Please, a next step to decoding this problem if you could be so kind
Drop a TProgressBar on the form. Right click it and select Edit Custom Style. It should give you the style designer with a ProgressBar1Style1 object which contains htrack and vtrack.
htrack contains hindicator. Drop a TRectangle on the hindicator. Set the TRectangle to align Client. Change the Fill color as desired. Change the Stroke Kind to None.
vtrack contains vindicator. Drop a TRectangle on the vindicator. Set the TRectangle to align Client. Change the Fill color as desired. Change the Stroke Kind to None.
Close the style designer and save when it asks. This is one way to do it.
This may be a title old question, but the content about this is so rare that I think will be useful to future generations to have some info here.
To simply put, to change the color that will fill your bar you have to select a area in your BitmapLinks. To do that double click in the SourceLink property in the hindicator (a child of htrack in the tree view).
Then select a are that you will want to use as the filling, if none of the option pleases you, you may add a new BitMap to your StyleBook.
For the background color, just insert a rectangle inside htrack with a Client Alignment
I have really weird problem with colors in interface builder. I set a color on one UI element, for example UIView, and then I want the same color on UIButton...but when I try to do so, colors are often different - I mean little bit different tone, not absolutely different color. How is this even possible ??? I've tried to use RGB sliders, and other sliders, also that color picker tool... Only thing that helps me sometimes is, when I create new UI element. Anybody had the same problem and knows what's going on ?
Interface Builder filters colors through your monitor's current color space by default. You can change this in Xcode4 IB by bringing up a Colors dialog, clicking the Sliders tab, then clicking the little dropdown button under the magnifying glass that looks like a color spectrum. This will bring up a list of available color spaces -- select Generic RGB and adjust the sliders as necessary to get the correct color.
See this question for more information, especially the comments on the accepted answer.
I solved this issue using "Device RGB" instead "Generic RGB".
See the image:
Unfortunately, fiddling with color spaces didn't work for me. What did work was editing the raw xml of the .xib (right click .xib, Open As > Source Code) and changing the RGB decimal values there.
The currently selected item in interface builder will be slightly different to its actual colour - it has a darkened mask applied to it to highlight the fact that it is selected. You need to click somewhere else in the window to unselect the item, it's real colour will then be shown. I've fallen into this trap myself.
I have 2 problems with a VCL TRibbon. I am using C++ Builder XE3.
Extra bar along the top. There is an extra bar along the top which i cant remove. I don't see any options which effect it.
Is there a way to remove just the tab. I only have 1 ribbon page and there is no need for the tab with the text.
I am trying to get the icons flush against the App border.
I'm trying to figure out how the books draw a box perhaps with different background around a digression/example? Preferably how this would be accomplished in lyx, but latex solution would be welcomed as well :D
The color package should allow you to use the \colorbox command.
Examples (cited from this page, where you will find more details):
\colorbox{red}{Black text on red background}
\fcolorbox{blue}{red}%
{Black text, red background, blue frame}
If you need just a border and no background color, the built-in \fbox{text} command should do fine.
In Lyx you can do Insert -> Box. This creates a Box (Minipage) and you can put your content inside it. When you right click the Box (Minipage) and go to Settings, you can select type of the border or even drop shadow or shaded background via 'Decoration'. (This should be accessible directly through the right click menu as well.)
Hope this helps :)
