What's New for Essential Studio 2012 Volume 1
Essential Chart for ASP.NET now features a high-performance, lightweight charting component that is built on the HTML 5 CANVAS element. One of the most impressive features of the HTML 5-enhanced chart control is that charts created with it can be exported as vector images, guaranteeing your end users the clearest, sharpest charts no matter where they need them.
The AJAX Grid control allows you to increase grid performance. It has two modes: server and JSON. The JSON mode can be enabled to handle paging, sorting, grouping, and filtering.

Digital Gauge—Dot Matrix DisplayA rolling gauge has also been added to the ASP.NET HTML 5 gauge. Rolling gauges can be used to display numeric and alphabetic text in a UI that is similar to analog odometers. The gauge is animated to roll over, and the roll direction can be set as clockwise or counterclockwise. An automatic segment count feature is included to automatically set the number of spaces present in the gauge. Fourteen built-in themes are available, and the outer frame border, text color, and segment background colors are all customizable.
Rolling Gauge with Numeric and Alphabetic CharacterUpdates to circular and linear gauges have also been added. Circular gauges can now be configured to have quarter and half-circle displays, and the starts and end angles inside the gauge can be customized. Linear gauges now offer three types of frames: rectangular, rounded rectangular, and cropped rectangular. Fourteen different types of points are also now available for linear gauges.
All HTML 5 gauges for ASP.NET are built on the HTML 5 CANVAS element. They render purely on the client-side to provide extremely fast performance and lightweight deployment.
Circular Gauge—Half-Circular FrameThe Schedule control provides a secondary pane that allows you to navigate between decades, individual years, months, and days. When a selection is made, the primary pane will display the selected month, allowing you to drill down to a detailed view of any given week or day.
