Based on the new great TRealTimeMarquee I did another neobook-plugin (after TSimpleGraph)

It was just released here:

Thanks to Kambiz for this Component!

So fast and so great!

I added a link to your page on the RealTimeMarquee page.

Hello Kambiz,

Might it be possible to add an IMG tag to the HTML to show for example a small Icon-like image in front of a text?

Yeah, the only thing is missing is IMG tag. It's quite easy to add the image tag and I already implemented it in my mind.

I am working in a project now that would be finished maximum in two weeks. After that, the first thing I will do is releasing the next version of TRealTimeMarquee.

Sounds promising!
So keep on.

When you get into it, maybe you can also think about:

IMG supports LoadFromStream
IMG can also be a link

Just some more ideas.

The idea is using an event for getting the image, something like:

Code: Select all

TMarqueeImageEvent = procedure(Sender: TObject; const URI: String; Picture: TPicture) of object;

This is more flexible and gives freedom to the application to interpret URI as it wishes.

The new release is ready.

I guess it needs lot of work to upgrade hpwRealTimeMarquee to the new release. Sorry!

Why Sorry?
The new demo looks very interesting. Nice weather marquee.
Great work again.
I will have a look at it when time permits to upgrade the plugin to 2.0!

Based on the new great TRealTimeMarquee 2.0 I did update the neobook-plugin:

http://www.neosoftware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16887

This release does support the base set of features of TRealTimeMarquee.
There stays room for improvement with transparency and image-loading from streams etc.

>IMG can also be a link

Would this be possible with 2.0 ?

The SRC attribute of IMG tag can be anything. It's your application that should translate the src attribute in to an image using OnImage event.

Only if you do not specify an event handler for OnImage event, the component will suppose the src is a file and tries to load the image from file.

Regarding transparency, I don't know how to have transparency without loosing performance. Unfortunately layer API of Windows works only on windows without parent.

I understand your implementation of the OnImage-event.
So I know how it should work with my own event.

>IMG can also be a link

My question here was, if I can use a IMG as hypertext-link like a web-adress.
And then it would fire the OnLink-event.

It doesn't matter what is the value of src attribute, the OnImage event is always fired.

However, the OnLink event fires only when user clicks on a hyperlink (A tag). The content of hyperlink tag can be text or image.

Based on the new TRealTimeMarquee 2.2 I did update the neobook-plugin:

Based on the latest TRealTimeMarquee 2.4 I did update the neobook-plugin:

I was asked if it possible to add a OnEndLoop-event when the NumLoops value is reached and the last pass is ended?
The user want to show an text a limited number and then wants to update the text and restart.
