The 2022 Volume 2 release makes many improvements to our ASP.NET Core suite: support for server-side validation of data annotation during CRUD operations in the DataGrid control, the ability to prevent tracked changes from being accepted or rejected in the Word Processor control, and improvements to the Charts control.
The ASP.NET Core Carousel control have been developed to meet industry standards. The control is now marked as production-ready for ASP.NET Core.
This feature allows users to play or pause the slides when hovering the mouse pointer over the Carousel element.
This feature allows users to use the keyboard to navigate through interactive elements such as title, data points, and legends on the chart and also zoom and pan the chart.
This feature allows users to highlight and select data points based on the range and point color mapping.
Select only the selectable rows along with the checkboxes when clicking the header checkbox of the data grid. Disable the checkboxes in specific rows based on the application needs.
Customize the exported Data Grid’s header styles in the server side (PDF, Excel, and CSV) and in the client side (Excel and CSV), such as changing the text orientation, font color, width of the header text, and much more.
This feature provides data annotation support for server-side validation during CRUD operations. Displays custom server-side validation messages in client-side using a tooltip in edit form.
Data annotation support when rendering the Data Grid control through HTML Helper(@Html.EJS().Grid<OrderDetails>("Grid").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Render()
) already exists, now support has been provided for TagHelper (<ejs-grid id="Grid" dataSource="ViewBag.DataSource"> </ejs-grid>
) rendering also.
Display the clear icon in the search box of the Data Grid control. A single click of the clear icon clears the text in the search box as well as the search results in the Data grid.
This feature allows users to adjust the curve of the bezier connector using multiple intermediate control points. Also, users can control the visibility of all the bezier control points.
This feature allows users to limit the maximum segments count of an orthogonal connector to a specified value when editing connector segments at runtime.
This feature allows users to split the connector when dropping a new node onto an existing connector and create a connection between the new node and existing nodes.
This feature allows users to customize the shape, stroke-color, stroke-width, and fill of orthogonal connector segments’ thumb.
This feature restricts users from accepting or rejecting tracked changes, while editing a Word document without any limitation. All reviewers are allowed to view the document and do their corrections, but they cannot accept or reject any tracked changes in the document. Later, the author can view their corrections and accept or reject the changes.
This feature allows users to add borders to the paragraphs in a Word document. Using borders, decorate paragraphs to set them apart from other paragraphs in the document.
The Syncfusion Word Processor includes the following enhancements to preserve RTL text in a Word document.
This gives users Microsoft Word-like experience when working with RTL languages.
Highlights a single task or a chain of linked tasks that has a direct impact on the project’s end date. If a task in a critical path is delayed, then the entire project will be delayed.
Retain the state of a Gantt Chart using the local storage on browser reload. The state can also be saved and restored manually.
The ASP.NET Core Maps now supports rendering GeoJSON files with “MultiLineString”, “MultiPoint”, and “GeometryCollection” geometry types. The geometry type “MultiLineString” represents an array of two or more geographic points. The geometry type “MultiPoint” represents an array of points that renders circle markers. The geometry type “GeometryCollection” is a special type that contains various geometries as members.
The ASP.NET Core Maps supports online map providers such as ESRI, TomTom, and Mapbox. Markers, marker clusters, navigation lines, zooming, panning, and other essential options can be rendered over online maps.
Legend support is provided for markers rendered over online map providers such as OSM, Bing, Mapbox, and others. Additionally, a legend for layers and markers on sublayers over online map providers is supported.
PDF/A-4 is the latest edition of the PDF/A conformance series based on ISO 32000-2 (PDF 2.0). This new format allows non-static content in PDF documents in the form of JavaScript, so the logic of an interactive form can be stored and archived. Additionally, it simplifies the handling of digital signatures.
PDF/A-4 has the following conformance levels:
Now the Syncfusion .NET PDF Library supports the creation of PDF/A-4 conformance documents and the conversion of existing PDF documents to PDF/A-4 conformance.
RichMedia annotations can be used to embed videos and sound files in PDF documents. The user can play the media content as part of the page content by just clicking on the video or audio. This annotation is newly introduced in PDF 2.0 to replace sound and movie annotations, which are deprecated in PDF 2.0.
The .NET PDF Library now supports the watermark annotation, which is used to show text, images, and shapes as watermark content in page graphics with a fixed size and position. It supports the following features:
