Examples of tiOPF logging in the wild

Are there some examples of using tiOPF logging besides those in the demos?

I want to use tiLogToGUI, but I am not happy with the amount of screen space it takes. Is there some way it can be adapted or themed to be tidier or smaller?

The code gives the impression that it can be embedded or extended in another form or is
that a misconception on my part?

Simply edit the tiLogToGUI unit for your chosen toolkit (VCL, LCL or fpGUI), and edit the CreateForm() method to suite your needs.

That is indeed true, and hence the reason for the FormParent property. I have heard of other developer that used this in Delphi, but I have never tried to embedded in inside another form myself.

Seeing that you posted here, I'll assume you are using LCL. The next question would be: "Does LCL support reparenting of components or forms?" I have no idea.

Tip:
In future I suggest you post tiOPF related questions in the tiOPF support newsgroups. You will find more tiOPF experienced users there, and probably a better change of getting answers.

Yes it does.
