Warning 🚨

This release introduces changes that break the compatibility of projects in this version with older versions. The upgrade to 1.19.0.0 is irreversible. Therefore, before opening your old projects, it is NECESSARY to make a backup copy in case you need to temporarily revert to previous versions.

• All resource names used in the form components (xfm file) are automatically converted to a new format using ":" as the separator of the theme name.

• Automatically, new theme entities are generated in the "Project" -> "FGX Assets Manager" resources based on the availability of themes in your application. Determining whether a folder is a theme is performed based on the presence of the word "Theme" in the folder name. If you do not use the word "Theme" in the names of the theme folders, then you need to convert such a folder manually through the context menu of the resource designer tree.

• All programmatic access to resources via the Assets.Consts file must be manually reviewed and updated step by step in the next section.

Usage Assets.Consts

(1) The fields of individual resource types have been renamed for a uniform approach using numerals:

• R.Fonts -> R.Font

• R.Images -> R.Image

• R.LottieAnimations -> R.LottieAnimation

• R.Files -> R.&File.

If you use programmatic access to these resources, rename them according to the scheme above.

(2) The logic of using R.Theme has been changed. Now it contains not the resources of the current theme, but all the themes of the application, with the ability to access the resources of each theme. If you use R.Theme in the project, you need to replace it with R.CurrentTheme.

• Migration guide.

New ✨

Application-level theme support

In this release, the work with themes in the application has been completely updated, opening up new possibilities for customizing the appearance of your application:

• Universal theme assignment/switching for the entire application (Without having to specify the theme at the form level);

• Easy switching of the dark theme;

• Full control of the theme application at the component level;

• and much more.

The full guide about themes - Guide.

Form designer

Switching Light / Dark themes

Now you can see how your app looks in light and dark themes. To do this, you need:

1. Create light and dark themes in the assets designer

2. Specify them in the project settings Project -> FGX Options... -> Application -> Themes

3. Switch the theme through the new buttons on the toolbar of the form designer.

Please note that if the theme is redefined at the form level, then this switching functionality will not work.

Component selection

Added a new display mode for the name and size of the component when the component is highlighted on the form designer. If you do not want this information to be displayed, you can disable this mode in the library settings Tools -> Options -> Third Party -> FGX Native -> Form Designer.

Improvements 🙌

Assets designer

Improved stability of the assets designer.

Assets configuration file

Now the Assets\config.json file is automatically formatted for easy viewing of changes.

Bug Fixes 🐛

• The canvas was not drawn with a brush that has Color = Null specified and uses a color asset.

Release date:
13 August 2025

New ✨

TfgCanvas

Save state

The approach to managing the canvas state has been redesigned, namely the SaveState / RestoreState methods. Previously, when saving a state, you received a state object, which later had to be used for restoration in the RestoreState method. This approach turned out to be redundant, since the rendering commands are executed sequentially and the state is also managed sequentially (restoring to the previous state).

Now, when a state is saved, it is automatically saved to the canvas internal state stack. Added a new paired method RestoreState(), which retrieves the last state from the stack and restores it.

Now the template for working with the canvas state looks like this:

ACanvas.SaveState;
try
  // Painting
finally 
  ACanvas.RestoreState;
end;

Warning: Now you can't restore any state, only the last one. This is also due to the principle of how native canvas works in Android/iOS, which do not provide for such a feature.

Clip by path

Added support for cropping the display area along the specified path. The new TfgCanvas.ClipPath method allows you to add a new one to the current clipping area.

For example, drawing a red circle clipped by a central circle inscribed in the TfgPaintBox area:

procedure TFormMain.fgPaintBoxPaint(Sender: TObject; const ACanvas: TfgCanvas);
var
  CirclePath: TfgPath;
begin
  ACanvas.SaveState;
  CirclePath := TfgPath.Create(nil);
  try
    CirclePath.AddArc(fgPaintBox.LocalBounds, 0, 360)
              .ClosePath;
    ACanvas.ClipPath(CirclePath);

    ACanvas.Fill.Kind := TfgBrushKind.Solid;
    ACanvas.Fill.Color := TAlphaColorRec.Red;
    ACanvas.FillCircle(TPointF.Create(0, fgPaintBox.Height / 2), fgPaintBox.Height / 2);
  finally
    CirclePath.Free;
  end;
  ACanvas.RestoreState;
end;

The clipping area is restored only by restoring the state of the SaveState / RestoreState canvas.

Warning: This functionality is not supported in the designer.

Fill path rule

Added the ability to control the way paths are filled Canvas.FillPathRule.

• Details.

Warning: This functionality is not supported in the designer.

Custom stroke dash

Added the ability to use a custom stroke template in the TfgBrushStroke brush. The user stroke is set using the method:

procedure SetCustomDash(const ADash: TDashArray; const AOffset: Single); 

TfgSvgPath

The new property FillRule (NonZero, EvenOdd) was added.

• Details.

Form designer

The new designer was added for gradient brush.

• Details.

New service IFGXApplicationMetaDataService

Added a new service for getting application metadata. To read the value of a variable named test_value you can use the code

var value: string;
value := Application.MetaData.Values['test_value'];

For iOS metadata is stored in the info.plist file, for Android in the AndroidManifest.xml manifest in the meta-data tags.

Yandex Maps Tile Provider

A new Yandex Maps tile provider TfgYandexMapTileProvider has been added for TfgMap. The tile provider supports appearance customization within the API.
To use, you need to get a free API key. Details at link.

Drag & Drop

For all controls (except for some composite controls like TfgDrawerLayout, TfgBottomSheetLayout, etc.), the ability to drag onto other controls using Long Tap has been added. The DragEnabled property is responsible for the ability to drag. To find out whether a control is currently in the dragging state, refer to the IsDragged property. Also, during the dragging process, the control fires the OnDragStarted (at the beginning) and OnDragFinished (at the end of dragging) events.

The AcceptDropMode property has been added to be able to accept draggable controls. By default, accepting draggable controls is prohibited (TfgAcceptDropMode.Restricted). However, you can allow acceptance of all controls (TfgAcceptDropMode.AcceptAll), or control acceptance at runtime using the OnCanAcceptDrop event (TfgAcceptDropMode.AcceptByEvent mode).

The main event OnDragDrop notifies about dropping the dragged control on the receiving control. OnDragEntered - the dragged control has appeared above the receiving control, OnDragExited - the dragged control has left the receiving control. The OnDragOver event occurs when the dragged control moves over the receiving control.

A typical example of handling a component drop:

procedure TFrameDrop.fgFrameDragDrop(Sender: TObject; const AData: TfgDragObject; const APoint: TPointF);
var
  LTarget: TfgControl;
  LDragged: TfgControl;
begin
  LTarget := Sender as TfgControl;
  LDragged := AData.Control as TfgControl;

  LDragged.Position.SetPointF(APoint - AData.DragPoint);
  LTarget.InsertControl(LDragged);
end;

Added new demo project "Drag and Drop" -> "Basic Example".

Improvements 🙌

SVG

The supporting followed attributes were added: stroke-dasharray, stroke-dashoffset, stroke-linecap, stroke-linejoin, fill-rule.

• Related question.

TfgMap

The new method TfgMap.FindVisibleMarkersRegion was added for determination visible region on map, which covers all visible markers on the map. One of the ways to use the display of the visible region of all markers:

var VisibleMarkerRegion: TfgMapRect;
if fgMap1.FindVisibleMarkersRegion(VisibleMarkerRegion) then
  fgMap1.MoveCameraToVisibleRegion(VisibleMarkerRegion, 20);

An additional Animate parameter has been added to the MoveCameraToVisibleRegion method, which allows you to control the application of animation when moving the camera.

TfgControl

The new method TfgControl.LocalTo was added. It allows to convert point in local coordinate system of control to the cooridnate system of specified control ATo.

Android Api

The new type android.app.ActivityManager was added to Android.Api.ActivityAndView. Now you can find out the running processes and the memory they consume.

Miscellaneous

Now all library windows use a themed title like other IDE windows.

New ✨

TfgScratchOverlay

The new component TfgScratchOverlay was added. It allows to implement interactive content cleaning to realize the effect of erasing the protective layer in lottery tickets.

By default, the component is completely filled in with the current brush of the Fill component. When a component is touched, it becomes transparent at the touch points, showing the contents of the components placed behind it.

Useful properties and methods of the component:

• Fill - the initial filling of the component.

• BrushSize - specifies the size of the cleaning area when touched.

• Clear - resets the cleared areas and returns the component to its original state.

Other:

• The new demo sample was added: "Components" -> "TfgScratchOverlay" -> "Basic sample"

Blend mode for Canvas

Added the ability to specify the color mixing mode for the canvas TfgCanvas.BlendMode. With this property, you can clean the contents of the canvas and make them transparent.

• Description modes.

Improvements 🙌

Localization component

The TfgTranslator component has been redesigned, including the translation editor.

• Now translations are stored in text form in form resources (xfm, dfm, etc.), which simplifies work in version control systems (svn, git, etc.).

• Translations in the editor are now displayed as a vertical stack of multi-line text editors, which allows you to see all the translations at once.

• Added flexible exception settings (based on regular expressions) for the mechanism for collecting text properties of controls that do not require localization. For example, properties Name, TAction.Category, etc.

• The order of the keys is now preserved as it was specified by the user.

• Fixed the operation of the key filter.

We still do not recommend using it in mobile applications and deliver it on an "as-is" basis, however, these qualitative changes may be useful for you if you do use this component.

TfgRadioButton/TfgCheckBox

A new Appearance property has been added for the TfgRadioButton/TfgCheckBox components, which allows you to change the hue of Checked/Unchecked component states, which allows you to better adapt the appearance of components to a dark theme.

Improved the display of these components in the designer for iOS and Android styles.

The display of the Unchecked status of these components for iOS has also been changed. Instead of the accent color, it now uses the system gray color.

Unfortunately, Android doesn't let to change such colors in runtime. So you should change them via styles.xml file.

• FGX-332 TfgDateEdit/TfgTimeEdit Add BorderStyle property.

TfgTimer

Now, when setting the value of the Interval property, the designer automatically sets the same value for the Delay property (if the value of Delay coincided with Interval). By default, Delay was set to 0, and often customers could not understand why the first timer was triggered immediately after startup.
