hi
i'm guessing you are working on XE6 compatibility, and there is a lot of hard work on it, but any chance that old problems will be fixed in the next release please?
some of them are :
* alignment(right and center align) of item and panel caption in TIWExchangeBar and TIWSidenavBar
* AlignWithMargins of TIWAdvWebGrid (and other components)
* akRight Anchor
of TIWAdvEdit (and some others)
* hiding panels and items in TIWExchangeBar, TIWSidenavBar and IWOutlookBar
* visibility of the bottom-bar in the TIWExchangeBar (Hide/Show, Visible:=True/False)
Thanks
Hi,
There's indeed been a workload increase caused by the release of XE6.
However, we do try to fix most if not all reported bugs when a new version of a product is released whenever possible.
The points you mentioned are feature requests for functionality that is currently not supported in the controls rather than bugs. Please note that feature requests generally take more time to implement as these require more research, testing and sometimes non-trivial changes where bug fixes generally only require changes in existing code.
The points you mentioned have been added to our feature-request and we'll investigate if they can be implemented in a future version when we have been able to allocate sufficient development time.

Is there a timeline for an XE6 release? We really need your grids!
We aim for a release next week.
Hi Bart
(sorry for the delay)
the thing is that not all of the points i mentioned are feature requests.
i can understand about hiding the panels and the visibility of the bottom-bar.
but the first 3 points (alignment, AlignWithMargins and akRight Anchor) are actual bugs, because the basic behavior of these objects is derived from their parents in intraweb, and even farther in Delphi (even if these components didn't inharit from an existing IW or Delphi components).
so the tms components actually changed the way IW and Delphi behave.
again, i'm sure you have A LOT of work on MANY things (not only on the IW component pack), but it's only logical that the first 3 points are really bugs needs to be fixed.
thank you for your great components and hard work (and sorry for my english)
is there a new date for the next update?
last update date says June 10
i still use XE2/IW12, and i can't move to the XE6 that i have now, since TMS doesn't support a higher version then IW14.0.0
Thanks
Please note that that unfortunately there is no confirmation that support for non-default IW 14 version will be added in the next release.
However, we are planning to add support for non-default IW 14 versions for Delphi XE6 in a future version of the TMS IntraWeb Component Pack.
sorry for nagging about this, but i don't fully understand (and need TMS IW in XE6...).
in the install.txt of 5.5.0.0 it says :
"
TMS IntraWeb Components for
- Delphi 2009/2010/XE/XE2/XE3/XE4/XE5/XE6
- C++Builder 2009/2010/XE/XE2/XE3/XE4/XE5/XE6
-----------------------------------------------------------------
TMS IntraWeb Components for IntraWeb 10.0.x, 11.0.x, 12.x, 14.0.x
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"
and in the "important notes" section at the bottom, it says :
"For IntraWeb 14 as delivered standard with Delphi XE3/XE4/XE5, "
so i'm confused because i see it support XE6, and also IW 14.0.x and the beggining,
but on the other hand it also talks about the "delivered standard" versions, which if i understand it correctly means 14.0.0 ?
again, sorry for nagging about this.
just want to fully understand, and start working on XE6/14.0.x as soon as possible
Thanks!
At this time, we support for XE6 with the built-in IntraWeb version v14.0.0
It is on our todolist to provide support for a newer IntraWeb versions shortly, but at this time, there is not yet a fixed date set.
Unfortunately, most people will have upgraded from the default IW14 with XE6 because they need IE11 compatibility and to solve a number of other bugs. So, while it is understandable that you can't set a fixed date, it would be good to know an approximate timeframe (days, weeks or months) for an XE6 version that works with IW14.0.32 - simply so that we can tell clients and/or evaluate other solutions. Thanks!
Timeframe is in the order of weeks.
