The following movie illustrates how to insert, code and use any component using Delphi 12:
The video demonstrates how to insert, code, and utilize the exg2antt control within the RAD Studio 12 IDE. The process is similar for any other Exontrol components. If you are running the RAD Studio 12 IDE on a 64-bit Windows machine, please ensure you install the x64 version of the control. Otherwise, you will need to use the x86 (32-bit) version of the component.
The movie illustrates how the ExGantt/JS can manage and adjust resource usage:
For instance, when a task necessitates the allocation of particular resources, the target control can be configured to display detailed information about how these resources are being utilized. To ensure that the resource data remains consistent across different parts of the system, you can employ the PutRes method to synchronize the source control with the target control. This synchronization mechanism ensures that any modifications made in the source control--such as updates to resource data, allocation adjustments, or changes in status--are automatically reflected in the target control. Conversely, any alterations made in the target control will also be communicated back to the source control, maintaining an up-to-date and accurate representation of resource usage in both controls.
The following movie shows the first look of the newly eXGraph/COM component
The Exontrol's ExGraph component is a versatile tool designed to meet the diverse needs of data visualization. With support for numerous chart types, it empowers users to represent their data in various formats, from simple line charts to complex radar charts, all within the same view. In addition to its extensive charting capabilities, our graph control offers seamless printing and print preview functionality, ensuring that users can easily generate hard copies of their charts with precision and clarity. The exGraph library lets the user changes its visual appearance using skins, each one providing an additional visual experience that enhances viewing pleasure.
The following movie shows the first look of the newly eXGraph/JS component
ExGraph/JS is a component that offers excellent graphical data visualization. It has many different types and styles of charts. Easy to use, zoom, resize, scroll, overview, legend, cursor view, owner-draw, numerous chart types to different axes in the same view, multiple views, and much more are features of the ExGraph/JS package. The ExGraph/JS is a HTML standalone-component, written in JavaScript, that uses no third-party libraries. The version of eXGraph for /COM, /NET and /WPF will be available in the near future.
The following movie shows the Predecessor/Successor feature
Tasks may have multiple predecessors or multiple successors. Before you begin establishing dependencies, it's important to understand that there are four types: Finish to Start (FS), the predecessor ends before the successor can begin, Start to Start (SS), the predecessor begins before the successor can begin, Finish to Finish (FF), the predecessor ends before the successor can end, Start to Finish (SF), the predecessor begins before the successor can end. The Predecessor/Successor columns show the bar's predecessor/successor based on its incoming/outgoing links. The control allows you to highlight the selected link, to add or remove the links based on the dependencies you type.

*Added: Ability to use or load PNG, TIFF or WMF picture on the control's background ( Picture property for /COM version ) , using the LoadPicture predefined function of the Template property. For instance, the [.Template = "Picture =
LoadPicture(`E:\picture.png`)"] OR [.Picture = .ExecuteTemplate("loadpicture(`E:\picture.png`)")] loads the PNG picture on the control's background.
*Fixed: Removes the tooltip's shadow if time to show the tooltip is less than 250 ms, as on Windows 7, the tooltip may be displayed slower.

*Fixed: "Error executing code: FormActiveXControl (data source), method ... called with invalid parameters" on Dynamics AX environment is fired, if the application handles events with parameters passed by reference. On X++ you should use the Event event and EventParams method to handle this exception. The X++ is not able to handle the events with parameters passed by reference.
*Fixed: In MS Access, the control loses its data once the Visible property is set on False or when the control is hosted to a tab control, and user changes the pages.

ExComboBox, 6.2.0.9
*NEW: Support for 'array' or 'split' operators in formatting/computed expressions

"month(value)-1 array ('J','F','M','A','M','Jun','J','A','S','O','N','D')" returns the initials of the months.
*Added: The 'A split B' binary operator splits the A using the B as separator, and returns the array of values being found. For instance, the
"weekday(value) array 'Sun Mon Thu Wed Thu Fri Sat' split ' '" gets the weekday as string.
*Added: Increases performances by optimization the expression. For instance, the -1 + 2/1.3, gets directly the result instead computing at runtime.
*Fixed: Any + or - operation after a 'case' statement into a formatting/computing expression fails. Properties such as
Column.FormatColumn, Column.FormatedColumn, and so on.

*Added: (Builder) Background\Picture\Vertical Stretch. Stretches vertically the picture on the object's background, and tiles horizontally the rest. ( EBN 1002 )
*Added: (Builder) Colorable button. The selected object is colorable, which means that the EBN color is applied to this part when the color is applied to the entire EBN object. For instance, at runtime the identifier 0x1FF0000 applies blue color to all parts that compose the EBN object, including the selected object. ( EBN 1002 )
*Added: (Builder) Not-colorable button. The selected object is not-colorable, which means that the EBN color is not applied to this part when the color is applied to the entire EBN object. For instance, at runtime the identifier 0x1FF0000 applies blue color to all parts that compose the EBN object, excluding the selected object. ( EBN 1002 )

The following movie shows the new implementation of eXAgent/eXDialog
component:
Exontrol's Agent component lets you add personalities to your application, similar with the Microsoft Agent or Microsoft Office Assistant. All you need is the file that stores the animated character, ( such as ACS/ACF files ), and a call like Play("peedy.acs","Congratulate","repeat") which shows the "Congratulate" animation from "peedy.acs" file. ACS/ACF is a file extension for an animated character file used by Microsoft Agent. The Exontrol's Agent component requires no third party libraries, so no Microsoft Agent Server, Microsoft Agent Control components are required.

*Added: The 'format' binary operator gets the value as formatted number. For instance "value format '2|.|3|," displays the value with 2 digits, the decimal separator being the . character, and the integer part is grouping by 3 digits, while the separator for grouping is , character. The
Column.FormatColumn, Column.ComputedField , Items.FormatCell,
ConditionalFormat.Expression, Bar.ShowHistogramValues, Chart.CondInsideZoom,
Items.ItemNonworkingUnits, Level.FormatLabel can use the 'format' operator.

For instance, the Editor.DropDownAlignment on 33, indicates that the drop down portion of the field shows aligned to the left, and the inside items shows the caption aligned in center.
*Added: Editor.Option(exDropDownBackColor) and
Editor.Option(exDropDownForeColor) specify the background and foreground colors to show items in a drop down editor.
*Fixed: The Editor.DropDownAlignment property specifies the alignment of the days in a DateType editor
