DemoCLX (ID #18564)

Giuseppe Madaffari

This package contains two demo CLX components for Delphi 6, with full source and free to use in you applications.

TCalcEdit CLX Component
-----------------------
The component you have just installed is an enhanced editbox able to dropdown a basic calculator that also acts like a currency converter.
Simply select the small button on the rigth edge and a Calculator form will show, helping you to do some basic operations.
You can also set the following properties for TCalcEdit:

- ForeignCurSymbol: the symbol for the foreign currency of the converter
- DecimalDigits: the number of useful decimals to retrieve after conversion
- ConversionRatio: the conversion ratio between the local and foreign currency.

Example:
--------
say you live in Italy and want to allow your users to convert Italian Lira to/from Euro. You will set the properties as follows:

- ForeignCurSymbol = 'Eur'
- DecimalDigits = 2
- ConversionRatio = 1936,27

doing so, the calculator will enable two buttons [-> Eur] and [Eur ->] that allow your users to convert the value on the display to/from the appropriate currency.
While setting "ForeignCurSymbol" keep in mind that specific locale characters may not display properly with customers' own configuration!

THintListBox CLX Component
--------------------------
The component you have just installed is an enhanced ListBox able to display "long items", i.e. items that do not fit into list width, as floating hints.
New properties include:

- ShowPartialHint: if set to True, an hint will be displayed for items partially hidden
- HintHidePause: specify, in milliseconds, the time interval to wait before hiding the hint
