ich habe jetzt eine Weile diverse Links durchsucht, aber ich werde einfach nicht schlau aus alldem.
Ich hätte gerne eine gedockte Version von Lazarus, aber ich blicke nicht durch, was ich machen muss, um die zu installieren.
Ist das so zu verstehen, dass die aktuelle Lazarus-Version 1.6.4 überhaupt kein Docking unterstützt?Lazarus release notes hat geschrieben: The package implementing a docked form editor can be found in components/sparta/dockedformeditor/sparta_dockedformeditor.lpk. It makes the most sense with AnchorDocking but can be used also without it.
IMPORTANT: the docked form editor is included in 1.6 but is not stable there and has known bugs that affect its usage. Please do not report issues based on your 1.6 experience but always check against the current trunk where the designer has been improved further. Docked editor bug fixes won't be merged into 1.6 since a lot of them were OS/WS dependent and the LCL code had to be changed as well.
If you want to use the docked form editor, you have to use complete Lazarus trunk. Copying the sparta packages from trunk into your 1.6 fixes won't work.
