FMXInno - Final Release [2024-Mar-20]


What's new:

* This update will extend from FMXInno Dev [2023-Mar-15].

- Make sure to refer to the last previous changelog to check out the new changes.

* Added a new Fluent Form (FluentBlendedColor).

- This is also a standard Fluent Form, but this new form will blend with the Windows colors (Accent or Desktop Image) along with standard Fluent colors.
- The reason for this new form is for Fluent forms to have a more realistic and modern look.
- Supports both Dark/Light modes and custom color mode.
- Also supports some possible customizations.
- Check out the screenshots to see the differences between standard Fluent forms at standard opacity level (Opacity = 0.56).

* Added built-in SVG image support.

- Rendering engine: Image32

* Windows title bar is now more customizable.

- Custom Application Icon instead of the default one.
- Titlebar Color.
- Button Colors.
- Titlebar Background Effects, and so on.

* SKIA and Blend2D are now optional.

- SKIA and Blend2D are optional from now on because they require external dependencies (sk4d.dll, blend2d_win32.dll).
- You can still have them, but you have to download them manually.

* Added Image32 - 2D Graphic Library.

- Image32 will take the place of SKIA and Blend2d from now on, especially because it does not require external dependencies and has average performance compared to SKIA and Direct2D.
- Image32 is not enabled by default for public use; for now, it's for my personal use only (because i'm pretty sure no one will use it directly in their projects. )
- More info about Image32: Image32 is a 2D graphics library

* Added new properties for classes.

* More bug fixes and improvements.

* Plugin folder has been cleaned up.

- Removed unwanted plugins from the directory.
- Re-compiled all the plugins to make sure everything is up to date.

* All the examples have been revised.

- Now the default compression will be 'lzma2/ultra64'.

* Also, added new examples.

* Extended support for Windows 11 24H2.

  CtrlClr: TAlphaColor;
begin
  CtrlClr := AClrBx.GetColor;

    AText.Color(ALBlack)
