.NET 5.0 support

Data Grid

Virtual scrolling cell placeholder support

This feature helps improve the visualization experience while scrolling by showing a placeholder in grid cells until the data operation is completed.

Searching support for foreign key columns

This feature allows users to search values in foreign key columns. Users can have multiple foreign key columns with individual data sources, and these columns can be searched with values or criteria to reduce the view of data.

Data aggregation support for DynamicObject/ExpandoObject data binding

Users can apply various types of aggregations such as sum, average, min, max, etc. to row data while using the DynamicObject/ExpandoObjects data binding.

Multiple primary key column support

This feature allows users to have a composite key or compound key in the Data Grid. Every primary key-based action such as edit, delete, selection persistence, and more will be done in a row if and only if all the key columns match.

Diagram

Line distribution

Decide whether or not the segment of each connector from a single parent node is automatically distributed.

Document Editor

Footnotes

This feature allows users to add and edit footnotes in a Word document.

Excel Library

Slicer

Create a Slicer in Excel to filter data in a table or PivotTable.

Excel to PDF enhancement

Convert gradient fill styles in cells and shapes to PDF.

Kanban

Workflow restriction

This feature allows users to restrict the card drop actions based on columns. For example, they can restrict cards from moving directly from the backlog to the completed state.

Hamburger menu support

This feature allows users to perform menu actions based on columns such as sorting cards and adding a card. Custom menu options can be added.

RichTextEditor

Paste from Microsoft Excel

Paste the content from Microsoft Excel to the RichTextEditor with all the formatting intact.

Merge table cells

Merge the cells of table rows and columns. This helps create a larger cell in a table without changing the height and width of a cell.

Browse the images from FileManager

Browse the local and server path image files using the Syncfusion FileManager component and insert the image in the RichTextEditor.

Scheduler

Drag-and-drop support in timeline year view

TreeGrid

Lazy loading with child data in remote data binding

Provides support to load or fetch the current page parent rows with their corresponding child rows from a remote service in the expanded state while binding remote data.
