by Marco Cantù
Originally written on August 18, 1998
Here are a few undocumented Registry settings of Delphi 4, which are actually very useful. Other settings will be in my Mastering Delphi 4 book.
All settigns are under HKEY_CURRENTUSER\Software\Borland\Delphi
shortened as HKCU\...\Delphi .
- Automatically Changing Palette page (as you hoover with the mouse over a
tab). Set to string with value "1":
HKCU\...\Delphi\4.0\Extras\AutoPaletteSelect
- Automatically Scrolling Palette (when icons don't fit in a page - move over
the side arrows). Set to string with value "1":
HKCU\...\Delphi\4.0\Extras\AutoPaletteScroll
- Default Editor Size. Set to DWARD value
HKCU\...\Delphi\4.0\Editor\DefaultHeight
HKCU\...\Delphi\4.0\Editor\DefaultWidth
- Show Code Insight Errors in Message pane (must be already open).
Set to string with value "1":
HKCU\...\Delphi\4.0\Compiling\ShowCodeInsiteErrors
