Add the capability to track Find Panel visibility changes

created 10 years ago

Hi,

I need to implement toolbar and menu options to toggle the visibility of the FindPanel whilst still retaining the close button.

I could work out a solution using a boolean variable and setting the displaymode to always or never, followed by setting back to manual again (to show the close button).  But then I have no idea when the user closes the find panel via the close button and so cannot synchronise the variable & toolbar buttons etc.

Can we have something like the following for the FindPanel class?

property Visible : boolean;
property OnShow;
property OnHide;   // or just OnVisibilityChanged?

Thanks,
Stuart

    Nice idea. We will possibly implement this functionality with future versions of our controls.

      Thanks :)

      We have implemented the functionality described in this ticket. It will be included in our next update(s).

      Please check back and leave a comment to this response to let us know whether or not this solution addresses your concerns.

      Additional information:

      With VCL 15.1, you can handle the new View's OnFindPanelVisibilityChanged event, which fires after the Find Panel visibility is changed. Use the AVisible event parameter to determine if the Find Panel is made visible.
