[Linux 64] Cannot open a file about hex HOT 10 CLOSED

Please test.

from hex.

By the way, why do you provide another OMultiPanel.pas? Shall we replace the original file from the package?

Ah, this is a left-over from a previous version where I had tried to create all the subpanels at runtime (which would not force me to install this package which I don't use for anything else) - but I did not get it to work and finally switched to designtime-creation of the MultiPanel. I'll do some more tests and then delete the unit here.

I would like to announce your project on this website. Could you please tell me what needs to be said about the project, according to you? What would you think of creating a little README? When you have time, of course.

Nice. But let me first write the README in the next days.

Now I looked at it again and was able to create the OMultiPanel at runtime. Therefore, it is no longer required to install this package into Lazarus since its only unit is contained in the source folder.

Changed the filter mask to contain also the '*'. Should work always now.

It works now. Thank you.

OK. Thanks.

Thank you for the README. After reading it I could better understand the (very powerful) features of the application. Congratulations for that beautiful software!

Announcement made.

Bis bald!

Found a last small issue. On Linux, I can't open a file which hasn't an extension in its name, because of the value of the filter (*.*).

The simplest solution (if I may suggest) would be to remove these lines, which (I believe) are not needed:

procedure TMainForm.acFileOpenExecute(Sender: TObject);
var
  i : integer;
begin
  with OpenDialog do begin
    FileName := '*.*'; // <----
    Filter := 'All files (*.*)|*.*'; // <----
    DefaultExt := ''; // <----
