    Hi!

    I'm using AS 7.20 and QuickReport 3.0 on Delphi Enterprise.

    I'm having 2 problems with AS 7.20. The first one is this: My aplication has 2 forms, First I show the Form1 (main form) to set some parameters like user, pasword, etc. After I close the form and I show de Form2. The application was working very good until AS 7.2. Now afer that I minimize the application, when I restore, the program raise a exception of memory acces. I was looking for the real trouble and is the onMinimize effect. Some times the program crashes or show again the form1 when I restore.

    The second trouble is using QuickReport. When I call to the Preview Method it shows a black band on the toolbar. I tried to change the sking, change the configurations of third party components, even I delete the AS manager and AS provider and put new components again but the problem continues. I fixed the problem setting the Skining Fomr as false but I lose the skin on the form.

    Another thing. The color for selected item on the combobox is not good. You shoud have more contrast in colors like older versions of As

    Dude, I want the 6.49 version again, plase!!!

    Thank's for your support.

    Could you show me an example program where I can debug this problem?

    You can solve this problem temporary if disable sSkinManager1.AnimEffects.Minimizing.Active property.

    Maybe you haven't added standard controls to the ThirdParty list? Like TToolBar, TComboBox, etc…

    Can you show a screenshot please? You have updated skins (*.asz-files)?

    Hi.

    I'm very glad for answer me.

    1. Right now I don't have the source file. But its something like this.

    (Note: form1 is the main form of the project)

    … //Event onClick of start button

    procedure Tform1.startClick(sender : Tobject)

    begin

    (…)

    {Connect to DB, Verify user acount…}

    Form2.show;

    form1.close;

    end;

    Now, If I minimize the form2 don't minize all the application, just the form. So I added an event listener to the onMinize event and the listener sends a Message to minize the applicacion. All works ok untils this point. I minimize the application, after that, I make click on the taskbar of windows to restore my application and I got a Memory Access Exception. The application crashes.

    I've fixed the program as you suggested me, disabling the OnMinimize animation.

    2. About QR3. Yes I've added the QuickReport control set to the thirdparty components. After thant the program doesn't show the black bar on the toolbar of the QRpreview. Now throws an exception for wrong access memory. I've fixed this situation removing all the components in the thirdparty list and adding only the Tbutton component. But It is weird, don't you think so?

    3. About the bad contrast in the combobox controls here is a picture. I'm using the Office 2007 blue. But I've tried with all the skins and the result is almost same.

    My Skins are up to date. The problem begun at the AS 7.10 version. With older version the selected item was marked with blue background and white text. I hope you improve the constast of the colors.

    Thak's for your support. I'like a lot your components.

    by the way I'm uplading a suggestion for a new skin

    “Access violation” error will be fixed in the nearest release and I'll try to improve a drawing of ComboBox selection soon.
