                       Hi,
  I use TImageEnVect for a diagram editor with potentially large diagrams (multiple thousand pixels in each direction), thus I have to avoid assigning a bitmap this big to the canvas (layer 0) or I get an out of resources error, obviously. Problem is, the scroll bars for navigating the imageen view always seem to use the layer 0 bitmap size, not the actual layer size. Otherwise I could simply use a small white bitmap and stretch it to any size I want to save resources. So, is there any way to enable the imageen scroll bars without using a huge canvas bitmap? |

                       Hi, with current version it is not possible. From next minor release a new pixel format has been added (ieVirtual), which allow to create a big virtual bitmap (which does not allocate memory). This will solve your problem, using following code:
    ImageEnView1.LegacyBitmap := false;   ImageEnView1.IEBitmap.Allocate(100000, 100000, ieVirtual);   ImageEnView1.CurrentLayer.Transparency := 0;   ImageEnView1.Update();
