Ribbons, editors, file upload controls, and more

Create stunning line-of-business Silverlight applications with a wide range of components, including a high-performance grid, docking manager, chart, gauge, scheduler, and more.

Ribbon Control

The ribbon control enables developers to add an Office 2007-like ribbon interface to Silverlight applications. It also ships with several Office 2007 themes.

Tabs

The TabControlAdv control enables users to display the content of multiple pages within a limited area. It ships with a rich feature set, including multiple tab-strip placements, automatic text rotation on vertical placements, drag-and-drop tab items, item-header images with multiple alignments, in-place editing of headers, tab-list context menus, and scrolling support.

Tree View

The TreeViewAdv control implements a tree UI with advanced customization capabilities. Its feature set includes dragging and dropping, multi-node selection, and in-line editing support. It supports adding images--such as left, right, expand, and collapse images. It also provides built-in support for sorting and searching tree nodes.

Group Bar

The group bar is a UI for grouping a collection of commands within categories. It displays these categories within collapsible panels. The group bar lets you recreate the popular Microsoft Outlook bar interface in applications. Each panel in a group bar can host a number of commands or any other control, such as a calendar.

Taskbar

A taskbar is similar to a group bar in its ability to host a collection of grouped command items. The look and feel, however, is closer to the Windows XP Taskbar. Just like the group bar, taskbar boxes can be expanded and collapsed.

Checked List Box

The check list box control is a list box with check boxes. It includes list box items and allows multiple items to be selected.

Uploading Files

The file upload control is used to upload multiple files simultaneously. With the auto-upload feature, file uploading can be performed automatically upon selection, eliminating the need to click the Upload button. Other features of this control include asynchronous file uploading, a thumbnail view of uploaded images, size limits on files to be uploaded, and restrictions on file types.

Editors

All editor controls have been architected to provide a simple and powerful means for capturing data input, and validating and displaying data with the appropriate formatting. They include the integer text box, double text box, AutoComplete, masked text box, percent text box, currency text box, numeric up-down, and domain up-down controls.

Calendar Edit

The calendar edit control implements a classic calendar control with certain advanced features. Any date ranging from year 0 to year 9999 A.D. can be displayed. The control displays a calendar that users can utilize to navigate to any day of any year.

Date-Time Edit

The date-time edit control enables users to capture date-time input in a Silverlight application. It ships with a variety of built-in features, including custom date-time formats, different cultures, a built-in calendar to navigate through dates, empty date options, and customizable carets.

Heat Map

A heat map is a graphical representation of data where the values taken by a variable in a two-dimensional map are represented as colors.

Range Slider

Range Slider is a slider control with two thumbs showing a selected range. It lets users input two values, typically an upper and a lower bound for two thumbs, thus providing enhanced feature support for a standard slider control.

Menu Package

The Menu package contains three controls--menu, toolbar, and context menu controls. These controls enable users to choose from a list of commands or options.

Panels

The fish-eye panel is a toolbar-like control that magnifies a child element when the pointer hovers over it.

HTML Host

The HTML host acts as a container for hosting HTML content inside a Silverlight environment. It has the ability to navigate to any Web URL, parse HTML tags, and display them in Silverlight.

Skin Manager

The skin manager can easily change the appearance of both framework and Syncfusion controls during run time.

Color Picker

The color picker control provides a rich visual interface for color selection. The structure of the control represents a palette with ToolTip support and a More Colors option.

Brush Selector

The brush selector control is a UI control similar to the color picker control used in graphics software. It has a sub-control, named Brush Edit, with similar properties.
