start after first full drawing of main form

I would like to call some methods after the application finished
starting and displays already the first form.

Many thanks already in advance for your help

Set a global variable FirstActivate to true, then in the FormActivate handler
enclose your calling code in a . . .

if FirstActivate then begin
FirstActivate := false;
{what you want to call}
end;

. . . wrapper.

If you just want to call some methods after the main form has finished
displaying, put the method calls in the project source after the main form
is created and shown. Of course, the application wouldn't have actually
"started" yet...
