    Hi all.. Ive loved the DPF components. I am however concerned that its days are over. There has been little to no discussion for 2 months.. If its progression is over, that's fine, im still using them with great success.. Babak, can you let us know your feelings about the future of the components etc? Let us in on your thoughts?

    I hope they continue to be developed too. Maybe Babak should make the components a paid component set. I wouldn't mind paying for them. I have already donated.

    Has anyone used or looked at TMS IOS controls? I started with them, and they had issues. now, many versions later, Im wondering if they are stable?
    Only 99 dollars and still being updated.. Just curious your opinions..

    I also loved the DPF components and it seems that babak is no longer active. I wanted to buy the TMS components but i am not sure how good it is too Gordon. Have you tried the latest version from TMS?

    Just started playing with it.. It looks very similar. I think the way babak deals with frames is more elegant.. if you want to divide up your code into multi pages, it seems like you need to use forms, not frames.. Im still learning about it all.. it seems pretty stable at this point..
    There are also a few components in TMS that DPF doesnt have.. Im thinking a guy could use functions from each.. Im also starting to question whether I should just use plain old firemonkey to write my apps.. Wondering how much difference it really makes anyway..
    I think for 130 bucks USD, the TMS components are worth a try..

    I am still wondering should i try to modify some of babak codes as i have problems with version 8.9.1 on table views. Not sure why as i did not receive any reply from babak.
    I am also looking at the corebluetooth library as well. It is not easy programming with Xcode although it is really fully Object oriented. Should i modify babak libraries?

    Hi Gordon
    Which version of DPF are you using? The latest version seems to have problem in the view is overlaying the status bar.
