Hello @GaNacereddine

Yes, there is! I'm preparing to do this, but takes a lot of time because there are many changes in FMX scenario.

Thanks and let's keep on touch.

Problems to solve:

• [x] Directive to define platform
• [x] Use OnFontChanged in VCL and remove CMFontChanged (not possible)
• [x] Review FMX default published properties
• [x] TDHVisualItem_ImageResource.Picture
• [x] TDHVisualItem_ImageResource.Load (PNG)
• [x] OnPaint: TDHVisualItem_ImageResource
• [x] ParamToColor function
• [x] Tag_Color_ProcValue
• [x] OnPaint: TDHVisualItem_Image
• [x] Review Cursor Changed behavior (can't use CMCursorchanged in FMX)
• [x] Click: ShellExecute and others platforms
• [x] DoTextAndRelated: Kind ttImage

Changed behaviors (to write in README):

• [x] Now color notation supports # or $ with 6 or 8 digits
• [x] Now supports transparent background using clNone (VCL) or Null (FMX) color
• [x] Now supports any image format in Resource when using FMX
• [x] When Delphi below XE8, there is no ImageList capability
• [x] Using only first ImageList Layer for now
• [x] Others platforms than Windows and Linux, like Android, iOS and MacOS doesn't open links directly

To do list:

• [x] Add VCL prefix in VCL unit
• [x] Old FMX Delphi have different FMX uses (needs directive)
• [x] Change version to 3.0
• [x] Readme change log info
• [x] Readme review
• [x] Missing Alpha when using transparent background in old Delphis using FMX

Testing:

• [x] Delphi XE3
• [x] Delphi XE4
• [x] Delphi XE5
• [x] Delphi XE6
• [x] Delphi XE7
• [x] Delphi XE8
• [x] Delphi 10 Seattle
• [x] Delphi 10.1 Berlin
• [x] Delphi 10.2 Tokyo
• [x] Delphi 10.3 Rio
• [x] Delphi 10.4 Sydney
• [x] Lazarus 2.0.10

There is a release candidate version available in this branch: https://github.com/digao-dalpiaz/DzHTMLText/tree/fmx-support

Please let me know if you are testing on a version of Delphi that I have not yet tested according to the previous list.

[GaNacereddine]

Unfortunately, I only own 10.3 and 10.4. the ones you already tested. I used to have 10.2 but I lost the license.

Even so, if you can, do tests on the versions you have to see if the features are as expected.

[GaNacereddine]

Okay will definitely do that I have a small project where I could test this control in the real world.

[digao-dalpiaz]

I finished a last commit just now. I believe everything is already ok, just missing to make it work in XE2.

The project list has been updated in the comment above.

FMX Windows - isOk FMX Android - is not working (There is no formatting. Just text. I'll try to figure out when the time will be)

[GaNacereddine]

Sure I'm setting up 10.4.1 on my dev pc, I will update you once the setup is done (damn patches :) )

I discovered the problem on Android. I'm going to upload adjustments right now.

[HemulGM]

FMX Android - isOk, but I found a bug on android. Its nature is clear - there is no MouseMove event.

Click on the spoiler and then just click anywhere. A spoiler click will be triggered.
