Managing displays with the Multi-Screen Window Placement API
With the release of Google Chrome 100 came the new Multi-Screen Window Placement API. This API allows you to enumerate the displays connected to your machine and to place windows on specific screens. We've wrapped this API with TMS WEB Core, so that you can use this inside your Web Applications with minimal effort.
Extend TMS WEB Core with JS Libraries with Andrew: FontAwesome
This time out, we are exploring FontAwesome, another wildly popular JS library. Like Bootstrap last week, FontAwesome requires no JavaScript coding knowledge and very little in the way of HTML or CSS knowledge either. And while it does have a lot to do with fonts, and is indeed truly awesome, the main benefit we're going to get from FontAwesome in terms of our TMS WEB Core projects is its enormous icon library.
TMS WEB Core is a framework that allows the user to write JavaScript applications with the Pascal language. Therefore the Pascal code is transpiled to JavaScript.
TMS WEB Core supports the three IDEs Embarcadero RAD Studio with Delphi, Microsoft Visual Studio Code and Lazarus.
This article is primarily concerned with the Delphi IDE and shows how to use hidden features to accelerate the work with the IDE.
