Home of ElasticForm and much more!

 

Q-Systems Engineering is an Engineering consulting firm specializing in the development and application of Finite Elements techniques in Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineering.  Q-Systems has developed the Finite Element system software FEMsys.  FEMsys is written in Delphi.  It was during the interface development of this software that our components ElasticForm, QSWorldGraph, QSRulers, and QSLabel were developed.

Your overwhelming interest to these components has generated an independent division within Q-Systems that is now dedicated in component development for Delphi and C++Builder.  All our components have been written in Object Pascal.

A brief description of  Q-Systems' components for Delphi and C++Builder is presented here:

ElasticForm

Download

This is Q-Systems' top selling component that adds the following capabilities to your form: 1) Resizes all visual components (buttons, labels, tables, panels, etc.) as you resize your form. 2) Keeps the initial size of your form constant as you change screen resolution or font size. 3) Sets limits to the smallest and largest size your form can take during resizing and maximizing. 4). Sets the default position of your form when maximized. 5) Tiles a bitmap to the background of the form. This applies to ALL forms, including MDIforms where direct access to the form's background is not possible. 6) Automatic INI file support; 7) Sizing of run time added controls; 8) Run time creation of ElasticForm (for dynamically created forms). 9) Multiple options for grid resizing. 10) Option to enable or disable resolution independence.

The component is compatible with all versions of Delphi (including 7)  and C++Builder and sells in a complete (with source) version for US$ 70.00 or in a registered (no source) version for US$35.00.  ...more

QSWorldGraph

Download

CB only  Delphi only

Example 1  Example 2

This is a user-defined world coordinates canvas. Just set the desired ranges and draw using the component's world-coordinate-drawing commands, or load a bitmap, a metafile, or a JPEG file. It features horizontal and vertical rulers, zooming capabilities, 100 levels of zoom nesting, and other goodies.

The component is compatible with all versions (up to 5) of Delphi and C++Builder and sells in a complete (with source) version for US$ 70.00 or in a registered (no source) version for US$30.00.

QSRulers

Download

QSRulers includes a horizontal and a vertical ruler. Both components provide the programmer with excellent control over the range that they cover (i.e. Minimum and Maximum range values), how they cover it, i.e. using actual inches or mm or using any custom range, the way they divide and label their range and place the divisions (i.e. which side of the ruler), the number of decimals, the orientation of increase (i.e. Left to Right or Right to Left, Top to Bottom or Bottom to Top), and the way they print.  Finally QSRulers provide a user specified 2-D or 3-D look.

The component is compatible with all versions of Delphi (up to 5) and C++Builder and sells in a complete (with source) version for US$ 50.00 or in a registered (no source) version for US$25.00.

QSLabel

Download

QSLabel is an improved label component that supports subscripts and superscripts; mixed use of English and Greek characters (great for scientific applications); and horizontal and vertical orientation. QSLabel works with Delphi 3, 4 or, 5  and C++Builder 3 or newer and sells in a complete (with source) version for US$ 30.00 or in a registered (no source) version for US$15.00.
Transparent Desktop

Download

Transparent Desktop is a Windows utility program. If you are bothered by the colored background block of the icon-labels on your desktop, then this utility is for you. Especially useful if your desktop wallpaper is defined by anything but a solid color background (i.e. texture, picture, theme etc.) Transparent Desktop will work well only if you turn off the Active Desktop.

The use of the program on your computer is free. The Object Pascal source is for sale for a fee of US$25.00
