Hello. I'm evaluating the TMS FMX UI Pack for RAD Studio 10.2
(3.6.6.0). When I place a TTMSFMXGrid on a form and attempt to live
bind it, I can never find that existing control in the LiveBindings
Wizard. But when I try a TTMSFMXLiveGrid, I find it there. The
documentation states that a TTMSFMXBindDBGridLink component is
registered for this use. I've uninstalled/reinstalled the trial to no
avail. Is there an issue here or have I missed something? Thanks.
For livebindings, we specifically designed the TTMSFMXLiveGrid so we recommend to use this one. There are two demos in the distribution that demonstrate this.
Thank you for the super fast reply. My need is to have the entire
dataset in the grid for sorting, grouping, etc. The LiveBindings demo
starting on page 122 of the documentation talks about working with a
TTMSFMSGrid. Are you saying that binding to this grid is not really
supported and I should just use the live grid anyway? Or is there some
way to make it work? Thanks.
Hi,
When using LiveBindings, the TTMSFMXLiveGrid is the one to use. Sorting and grouping can be performed on dataset level, or on grid level after disconnecting with LoadAllDataAndDisconnect. There is currently no support for Sorting and grouping from within the grid directly on dataset level
