I am testing the edit component in firemonkey compared to edits in other applications. I placed an edit control as close as possible with a firemonkey app and compared it to a edit controls in a FedEx application. The smallest I can make this in my app is 32. The FedEx app is smaller. My question is how can my edit boxes the same size as that in the FedEx application at design time and run time?

  1. Christen Blom-Dahl Is that really the answer? I mean is there going to be a 32px invisible box around my input that could interfere with another tedit? How much work will dig out to learn enough about styles to fix this so that my tedit can be smaller than 32px? Lets say I want a min limit of 22 instead

  2. Check this video tutorial by Sarina, she demonstrated using the bitmap style editor really well: https://youtu.be/V7g9EDPDPcQ

  3. You can change the "Height" property of each "TEdit", but to be sure that this property is not influenced by the Style of your app, you need change to "False" the member "Size" of the property "StyledSetting" on the same TEdit component.

    This method works for almost all FMX components and for the groups of properties indicated on StyledSetting: Family, Size, Style, FontColor, Other.

    Good luck!
