Outline...

In this. One of a kind tutorial series.
I hope to go through some advanced ideas and concepts.
Well... advanced...
Advanced for me at least.
LOL...

Going over old ground.
And a few new things.
Like how to work with colors and fonts.

A very detailed tutorial.
Going in depth.

Deeper than anything I have done before.
Lots of videos.
Lots of instructions.
Lots of things to learn and to do.

I will be going into thomasgrant_2.psc
Ohh dear... finally figured much of what I wanted to do with that code.
Works better now. Better than I expected.
Still a few things to tidy up.
But geez. Take a look at the previous videos.

I will also be attempting to do Roulette Bandit.
And applying that to my interface.

The interface is the easy part.

It that dam code that get most people stuck.

Hope to keep you entertained.

Where we you two weeks ago?
LOL...

Thank you for your kind offer.

I know that you have your point of view regarding RSS Pro.
And I have tried to code with Delphi. I really have.

However...
Just found it to difficult to get my code to work.
RSS Pro, despite it only being an emulator.
For me... it is very easy to code with.
And to understand.
Plus, I can get my code to work.
It may be the poor mans alternative.
But for me.
It does what I tell it to.

Explaining Unit4 and Unit5 again.
Going to get back to these and show you how they work in action.

[ThomasGrant]

Just a quick note.
The download has 2 memos on form2
Memo_Results
and
Memo2

Remove Memo2
Don't know how that got there.
I may have duplicated it somehow.

Tom's RSS Pro: Tutorial V6 (Advanced) Part 6 (Dialogs, OpenDialog)

Code Select Expand

procedure open_file(Title,FileName);
begin
OpenDialog1.Title:=Title; {The Titles of the Dialog Window}
   OpenDialog1.InitialDir:='C:\Users';
   OpenDialog1.DefaultExt:='.txt';  
   OpenDialog1.FileName:=FileName;
   OpenDialog1.Filter:='Txt files (*.txt)|*.txt';
   OpenDialog1.Execute(false);
   if OpenDialog1.FileName='' then
   begin
       ShowMessage('Open file was cancelled');{If you press cancel, this message will appear}
   end;
end;

Code Select Expand

procedure save_file(Title,FileName);
begin
 SaveDialog1.Title:=Title; {The Titles of the Dialog Window}
   SaveDialog1.InitialDir:='C:\Users';
   SaveDialog1.DefaultExt:='.txt';  
   SaveDialog1.FileName:=FileName;
   SaveDialog1.Filter:='Txt files (*.txt)|*.txt';
   SaveDialog1.Execute(false);
   if SaveDialog1.FileName='' then
   begin
       ShowMessage('Save file was cancelled');{If you press cancel, this message will appear}
   end;
end;

Code Select Expand

procedure MainMenu1_LoadSettingsClick(Sender: TObject);
begin              
  open_file('Open my file','My_file.txt');        
end;

procedure MainMenu1_SaveSettingsClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
 save_file('Save My Files','My_file.txt');
end;

This comes in handy later on.
Or anywhere in your script.
Now you can send the Title. The IntialDir, The FileName to these procedures.
And these procedures can now be used anywhere.
Or copied for later projects.
All you now need to do is change the variables that come in.

Example.

We have

save_file('Save My Files','My_file.txt');

Well, you can put in.

save_file('Save my Docment','My_document.txt');

Makes sense?

Tom's RSS Pro: Tutorial V6 (Advanced) Part 7 (Dialogs, FontDialog)
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

FontDialog1.Execute(false); {Opens the font requester}

Object Name: Font, Font Style, Font Color, Font Size

Memo1.Font:=FontDialog1.Font;

Using the .Font on Objects and the FontDialog1.Font will affect the Object with all the font elements.
If you want to be more specific and just change certain Object elements.
Like the font style or color.
It would look like this.

Memo1.Font.Color:=FontDialog1.Font.Color;

Memo1.Font.Style:=FontDialog1.Font.Style;

Memo1.Font.Size:=FontDialog1.Font.Size;

This process can be used for many of the objects.
