Skinning VCL Applications
Ray Konopka, Raize Software
RAD Studio XE2 offers support for skinning - the ability to dynamically change the appearance of UI elements without coding changes. This session provides a detailed look at how a developer can leverage skinning in their apps, and how to identify potential issues. In addition, this session pays particular attention to adding skinning support to custom VCL controls.
Effectively Using CodeSite Express in RAD Studio XE2
Ray Konopka, Raize Software
CodeSite Express first appeared in RAD Studio XE. With the release of RAD Studio XE2, a new version of CodeSite Express is available. This session will highlight the the new features of CodeSite Express 5 and how RAD Studio developers can leverage them.
Creating Custom FireMonkey Controls
Ray Konopka. Raize Software
RAD Studio XE2 includes the brand new FireMonkey user interface framework. Like the VCL, FireMonkey is component-based, but unlike the VCL, FireMonkey is designed to be cross-platform. This session will provide you with what you need to get started building custom FireMonkey controls. Specific topics will include presentation mechanisms, user interactions, designer functionality, and deployment.
