This major update combines our core products for Delphi and Lazarus into a single ecosystem.
What does it mean?
One installation system with online authorization—install and update all your products at once.
Shared release system—major releases are a shared release of all products.
Shared library for all products—fixes and new functions are available in several products.
The Recompile utility has been removed. The functions of package rebuilding are now performed by the installer.
❗️To download the update, we recommend you uninstall all products through the old installer and then use the new one (installer). ❗️
Core library
There are new Core, Core Graphics, and Core Localization packages combining products into one ecosystem.
The product localization system has been changed. Now it does not require rebuilding packages: it is enough to install language packs during installation, add the TfrLocalizationController component, and select the desired language.
FastReport VCL
The system for editing and using styles in the report designer has been revised. The new mode allows you to: create, edit and assign styles during report design.
The created styles copy the formatting of the object by default. Changing a style affects all objects that have been assigned this style.
The new Style Table tool allows you to customize the appearance of a report using styles and switch between them on the fly.
You can:
Select style table mode;
Create new custom styles and color schemes that would fit your report;
Change already created styles of report objects to your taste;
Switch almost instantly between ready-made solutions.
Style tables are supported in a rendered report and allow you to change the report style without rebuilding. These styles are saved to the rendered report file to allow report distribution to other users. Each user can choose their style.
Composite barcodes
We have added a new container object for composite barcodes. The object has ready-made settings for composite barcodes: EAN 8+2, EAN 8+5, EAN 13+2, and EAN 13+5. The object editor offers functionality for quick compilation of your compound barcodes.
An example of barcodes used when printing price tags.
Powerful tools for your reports
For the efficient work of multi-threaded applications, we have added the ability to print in multiple threads. Each thread can print to the printer without blocking others. This approach is efficient for applications running in print service mode.
We have improved the digital signature object for PDF export. Now you can supplement the signature with the current signed date, name, and other additional information.
The ability to override and replace the standard export dialog has been added to export filters without changes in the FastReport source codes.
Example:
uses frxExportPDFDialog;
type
TfrxCustomPDFExportDialog = class(TfrxPDFExportDialog)
protected
procedure InitControlsFromFilter(ExportFilter: TfrxBaseDialogExportFilter); override;
end;
procedure TfrxCustomPDFExportDialog.InitControlsFromFilter(ExportFilter: TfrxBaseDialogExportFilter);
begin
inherited;
SignaturePage.TabVisible := False;
end;
procedure SetDialogClass;
begin
frxPDFExport1.CustomExportDialogClass := TfrxCustomPDFExportDialog;
end;
We have improved and fixed the bugs in export filters. PDF export has received support for handling translucent SVG images.
Report compatibility between Lazarus and Delphi versions has been improved. The transfer of report variables between versions has been fixed.
FastCube VCL and FastCube FMX
For FastCube VCL and FastCube FMX products, we have added integration with FastScript, which we moved to a separate package. For FastScript support, it is enough to install one additional package and not rebuild all the others. We also paid attention to fixing errors in highlighting and editors.
FastCube VCL gets HiDPI support for high-resolution monitors. It supports all available RAD Studio development environment modes.
FastQueryBuilder gets package support for the latest RAD Studio versions.
RAD Studio 11 compatibility bugs have been fixed in FastReport FMX. Product optimization and performance have been improved, and internal architectural changes have been made.
