TIconFontsImageListFMX component

TIconFontsImageListFMX is an FMX component for Delphi derived from TCustomImageList component, that auto-build icons using a collection of TIconFontsSourceItem (derived from TCustomSourceItem) that uses a special TIconFontMultiResBitmap (derived from TMultiResBitmap) to build bitmaps using Icon Fonts.

The Component is available at "Ethea" page, after installing the run-time and design-time Packages located in \Packages\DXXX\IconFontsImageListFMX.dpk and \Packages\DXXX\dclIconFontsImageListFMX.dpk

At component TIconFontsImageListFMX you can define:

  • AutoSizeBitmaps (true/false) to obtain "dynamic" Bitmaps scaled for the requested components. If AutoSizeBitmaps is false it's possibile to build "static" Bitmaps with different Scale factors, as a normal ImageList that uses bitmap files.

At TIconFontsSourceItem level you can define, for each source item of then ImageList:

  • FontName
  • FontColor
  • Opacity
  • FontIconDec: Character value in decimal (stored into dfm)
  • Character: Character value (not stored)
  • FontIconHex: Character value in hexadecimal (not stored)
  • Name (optional)

Implicit Methods:

Image Editor

Actually there isn't a specific component editor: to define the ImageList properties you must use the object inspector and the Structure Editor do Add TIconFontsSourceItem, TIconFontMultiResBitmap and TIconFontBitmapItem.
