.NET Assembly Source | VCL

This sheet is visible if the assebly file has been created using Delphi and VCL.NET.

Options

Specifies how VCL forms are localized. Possible options are:

Value

Description

Set BiDiMode property

If checked Sisulizer changes the BiDiMode property when creating Middle Eastern forms. If the original value is bdLeftToRight, Sisulizer changes this to bdRightToLeft. This is applied only if ParentBiDiMode property of the same component is False.

Mirror forms

If checked Sisulizer mirrors the form and its sub components when creating a Middle Eastern form. Uncheck this if you call TForm.FlipChildren method before showing the form. This is because FlipChildren automatically mirrors the form.

Scan only forms from RcData If checked only form data is scanned from RcData resources.
Separate lines If checked each line of a Lines.Strings (e.g. TMemo.Lines) property is handled as a separate item. If unchecked the whole content of the List property is handled as a single item.

Form scaling

Specifies how the localized forms are scaled. VCL has a build-in form scaling. It works like this: When VCL loads a form it checks if the runtime height of the font is different to the design time height of the form. If it is VCL scales the components on the form. Unfortunately it does not scale the width and height of the form if the BorderStyle property is set to bsDialog. As a result some of the components may be cut off. To fix this Sisulizer has a form scaling option. Possible values are:

Value

Description

Disable scaling

If checked Sisulizer sets the TForm.Scaled property to False. This disables the build-in form scaling of VCL.

Scale forms

If checked Sisulizer scales the width and height of the form. This scaling is done properly for every form no matter what are the property settings. Unfortunately the build-in VCL scaling is always based runtime fonts of the OS where the application is running. When Sisulizer does the scaling on the developers computer this might be different than the actual runtime scaling.

Ignore If checked Sisulizer does not change the Scaled, Width or Height properties
