I'm encountering some problems over here. One, I can't seem to get Demeanor to appear in the Delphi IDE.
I've Delphi 8 Architect, and Demeanor has been installed. I've checked the BDS 2.0 key, and I've added $(BDS)\Bin\demeanoride71.bpl to the Known IDE Packages with Value of (Untitled), but it still doesn't appear and it appears!Would any of you know how to enable this? On C#Builder Architect, Demeanor appears under the Tools menu, but not on Delphi 8. Turns out I was using HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, not HKEY_CURRENT_USER initially when it's not working.
