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.

ExSuite/JS, 3.4
*NEW: Ability to change the focused link between two elements through drag and drop (exontrol.surface, exontrol.swimlane)
*Added: exPatternF2Diagonal(13), exPatternB2Diagonal(14) new flags for exontrol.PatternEnum type, that defines new patterns similar with exPatternFDiagonal(5) and exPatternB2Diagonal(6) flags (exontrol.common)
*Added: The exontrol.L.cSCL.min field specifies the ratio by which the link's width is multiplied to determine the minimum size required for the cross point to be displayed. If the cross point is too close to the line's margins, it may not appear. Setting the min value to 0 ensures that cross points are always shown. The visibility of these cross points can be adjusted using both the ext and min fields (exontrol.common)
*Added: The exontrol.L.cSCL.ext field field specifies the additional distance to add to the link's width in order to determine the size of the cross point. In brief, the ext field determines the size of the cross point, which appears where a horizontal line intersects a vertical line, forming a cross-shaped rectangle or triangle. The visibility of these cross points can be controlled using the ext and min fields (exontrol.common)
*Added: exAllowChangeFrom(0x20) flag of exontrol.Surface.LinkControlPointEnum type, allows the user to adjust the link's from element by dragging and dropping the start control point (requires the exStartControlPoint flag) (exontrol.surface, exontrol.swimlane)
*Added: exAllowChangeTo(0x40) flag of exontrol.Surface.LinkControlPointEnum type, indicates that the user can adjust the link's to element by dragging and dropping the end control point (requires the exEndControlPoint flag)

(Column.FormatColumn property)
*Added: The Column.SortType property supports exSortByState (0x20) (the column gets sorted by cell's state (checked, unchecked) rather than cell's caption). For instance, Column.SortType =
exSortByState(0x20), sorts the column based on the cell's state. The Items.CellState property specifies the cell's state.
*Added: The Column.SortType property supports exSortByImage (0x30), the column gets sorted by cell's image rather than cell's caption. For instance, Column.SortType =
exSortByImage(0x30), sorts the column based on the cell's image. The Items.CellImage property retrieves or sets a value that indicates the index of icon to display in the cell.

yy, yyy, yyyy (year represented only by the last digits, by a full four or five digits, depending on the calendar used)
literals. For instance, the "date(value) format `mmm d, yyyy`" gets the value in MMM d, YYYY format using the current locale, such as "Jan 12, 2023"
*Added: The ExecuteTemplate() method can return the value of a variable. For instance, the eXSurface's PointToPosition method uses variables by reference which is not supported in
PowerBuilder. For that you can use a code like ExecuteTemplate("dim
x,y;x=-1;y=-1;PointToPosition(x,y);x") that returns the x-position (surface's coordinates) of the current mouse pointer. In the same manner you can use
ExecuteTemplate("dim x,y;x=-1;y=-1;PointToPosition(x,y);y") to return the y-position.
*Added: The ToolTipMargin property defines the size of the control's tooltip margins. By default, the size of the tooltip margin is "4" (horizontal and vertical).

(exontrol.tree, exontrol.gantt, exontrol.pivot)
*Added: GroupBars(oItemBarA, startA, oItemBarB, startB, groupBarsOptions, options), groups two bars, allowing you to associate a starting or ending point of one bar with any starting or ending point of another bar. For example, to move both bars together, you need to group the starting point of bar A with the starting point of bar B, and the ending point of bar A with the ending point of bar B. Use the GroupBars method to manage or control the distance between two bars. When bars are grouped, resizing or moving one bar in the group will resize or move the other bars in the group accordingly. Similarly, all related groups will also be adjusted when one group is resized or moved. You can group bars from different items. The GroupBars method can preserve the length of the bars, restrict the interval between bars, and perform other adjustments when changes occur in the group (exontrol.gantt)
*Added: UngroupBars(oItemBarA, oItemBarB), ungroups two or more item-bars (exontrol.gantt)

solidline, and dotline, now support 150 named colors, such as <fgcolor red>, as well as RGB format specifications like <fgcolor
rgb(255,0,0)>. This enhancement offers more flexibility in defining colors within ex-HTML tags
*Added: The ExecuteTemplate() method can return the value of a variable. For instance, the eXSurface's PointToPosition method uses variables by reference which is not supported in
PowerBuilder. For that you can use a code like ExecuteTemplate("dim
x,y;x=-1;y=-1;PointToPosition(x,y);x") that returns the x-position (surface's coordinates) of the current mouse pointer. In the same manner you can use
ExecuteTemplate("dim x,y;x=-1;y=-1;PointToPosition(x,y);y") to return the y-position.
*Added: Minimize unnecessary invalidation calls during drag and drop operations

ExGantt, 19.0.0.8
*Added: The 0x200(exGridLinesGeometric) flag draws the grid lines using a geometric pen (geometric pens are generally slower than cosmetic pens)
*Added: The option "Roll the mouse wheel to scroll" of Window's mouse & touchpad settings specifies the number of items to vertically scroll. Previously, scrolling vertical with the mouse wheel takes 3 items at a time
*Fixed: Scrolling is slower if the control displays grid-lines (DrawGridLines property)

ExSlider, 21.0.0.5
*Added: The control's tooltip is shown when the cursor hovers it no matter if the window that hosts the control is activated
*Added: The <solidline> and <dotline> HTML tags support color in RGB format using the <solidline
RRGGBB> or <dotline RRGGBB> syntax, which indicates the color to show the solid or dotted line
*Fixed: The expropertieslist/com fails if the user is trying to spy the control (x64 version only, AllowSpy property, browses the object by drag and drop)
