DBAwareLabeledComponents

An extended TDBGrid plus classic Delphi-VCL Editors with Boundary-Label (DB-Aware and Standard) including NumberBox

Actual official version 1.2.2 (VCL)

An advanced TDbGrid component:

TLabeledDbGrid is an advanced version of classic TDbGrid with a boundary Label, plus some extra features:

ShowSortOrder: shows an indicator of sorting column
Embedeed CheckBox for boolean fields
Incremental search, when typing into a ReadOnly DbGrid
Alternate row-color
Custom row-colors
Show sort order
Incremental search
Lines per Rows (to show memo fields with multiple lines)
RowMargin (to enlarge heigh of any row)

*Example of a TLabeledDbGrid (with some extended functionality like inplace checkbox and sorting) with the label aligned TopCenter (inside the client area of the grid aligned alClient).

This library contains also the classic VCL editors (standard and data-aware) with the addition of a "label" attached to the component itself (like the native component TLabeledEdit).

It is no longer necessary to keep the Label "connected" and "aligned" by hand to the editor: on every component you can specify 3 simple properties:

BoundCaption
BoundLabel.Labelposition (default lpTopLeft)
BoundLabel.LabelSpacing (default 1)

The label can be positioned with 12 alignements: lpTopLeft, lpTopCenter, lpTopRight, lpBottomLeft, lpBottomCenter, lpBottomRight, lpLeftTop, lpLeftMiddle, lpLeftBottom, lpRightTop, lpRightMiddle, lpRightBottom

TLabeledButtonEdit:

Also available for D10.3 to latest, TLabeledButtonEdit and TLabeledDBButtonEdit are a classic editors with a button inside (on the right). For Date Fields the button opens automatically a Popup-Calendar.

Look at those examples, showing all the components with different Label alignments: the demo is available into Demo Folder

	Example of LabeledDbGrid with LinesPerRow = 3 to show multiline content of memo fields
	Example of LabeledDbGrid with RowMargin = 15 to to change height of grid Row. Fully compatible with Styles (light and dark)
