POLL - who needs WPTools FMX (firemonkey)

support · May 8, 2013 at 2:13 PM Official Post

With quite an effort it would be possible to create a word processor for FireMonkey.

Due to technical reasons the license is only thinkable as "pro" edition and only as 12 month subscription. Is that Interesting for anybody?

2.6.2013 - 156 views, 12 votes, 5 would probably license WPTools FMX.

If WpTools + WpReporter + wPdf FMX can be used on mobile devices, i think it may be an impressive reporting solution for mobile apps who work disconnected.

Yes, I see your point. Unlike many reporting solutions WPReporter allows reformatting/repagination after the report creation. That's essential for different screen sizes of zoom values.

wPDF on mobile is problematic though - it depends a lot on metafiles and ttf fonts.

Any news of a firemonkey Version of WPTools. I can't vote here. We would license it.

I would also license it, given it is released within the next 12 months.

Also this would be a killer component as there is no such thing like an rtfedit in firemonkey! I am sure it would have big demand!

Wee need a solution to move our product for Windows and Mac, using Firemonkey.
So yes we need WPTools for FMX.

Hello;

I think now is really necessary to have a WPTools version for working with Firemonkey, as today we have to work for diferent OS and it is only possible by using FMX.

Best regards!

How is Wptools FMX progressing?

Multi-platform deployment can only be a good thing for all developers.

As mentioned before, users can enter the Firemonkey group on this form to view this part of the forum. Only very few did.

The link you posted gives access denied even when logged in and there is no visible forum for fmx so maybe that is why there are no takers. I have had a need for firemonkey word processor for years as most development is now cross platform and not VCL. Your competitors don't do proper rtf tables and printing was all wrong so I am using a very poor but working one I wrote myself. Money waiting for a better one which I'm sure yours would be ...
