Syncfusion adds XMLA support to OLAP controls

Wed, 11 May 2011 17:18:00 GMT

Report builder samples in Syncfusion Essential Studio Business Intelligence Edition.

Syncfusion Essential Studio Business Intelligence Edition 2011 Vol 2 OLAP controls now support XML for Analysis (XMLA).

Syncfusion Essential Studio Business Intelligence Edition includes OLAP aware grid, client, chart and gauge controls. You can also build reports interactively with the included Report Designer. Syncfusion Essential Studio Business Intelligence Edition includes the following individual products: Essential BI OLAP Grid WPF, Essential BI OLAP Grid ASP.NET, Essential BI OLAP Grid Silverlight, Essential BI OLAP Chart WPF, Essential BI OLAP Chart ASP.NET, Essential BI OLAP Chart Silverlight, Essential BI Client for WPF, and Essential BI Client for ASP.NET, an ad-hoc analysis tool and report builder that can be easily bound to any OLAP database.

Updates in 2011 Vol 2

All OLAP Controls

Connecting a Mondrian Server through XMLA - Now, OLAP controls support XML for Analysis (XMLA) as a standard for client applications to talk to multidimensional or OLAP data sources available in a Mondrian server. Messages are communicated back and forth using web standards - HTTP, SOAP, and XML - and the query language is MDX, most widely supported for reporting from multidimensional data stores

ASP.NET

Grid Paging Support - Essential BI Grid supports paging by way of the Pager control. With this control, larger amounts of data can be rendered with optimum performance and both CSS and child control arrangement can be fully customized
Chart Paging Support - Essential BI Chart supports paging by way of the Pager control, which optimizes performance when rendering a large amount of data. It also supports customized CSS and fully customizable child-control arrangements
Cell Selection - Essential BI Grid supports cell selection, allowing end-users to select specific value cells by performing a drag operation and display the selected cells in simple UI controls - such as a chart - through a single event

WPF

XAML Configuration Support for Grids, Charts, and Gauges - XAML configuration support provides an easier way to pass data and report-related information to a control. Just drag the control from the toolbox and give the connection string and OLAP report-related information in the XAML file itself; there is no need to define data and report-related information in code, such as C# or VB

Silverlight

Drill-through Support - Each value cell in an OLAP grid is an aggregation of fact-table values. Drill-through support allows you to view fact data contributing to the formation of each cell
Drill-Replace Support - The drill-replace feature allows you to see only an immediate child or the parent members of a selected child. This is useful when you only want to view data you're interested in and don't want to be distracted by the results of other nodes

Stimulsoft Reports adds format import utilities

Fri, 08 Apr 2011 17:17:00 GMT

Creating reports using Stimulsoft Reports.Ultimate.

Version 2011.1 includes import utilities for RDL, Active Reports, XtraReports, and FastReport.Net report formats.

Stimulsoft Reports is a comprehensive solution that allows you to render reports in .NET. The product includes a complete set of tools to build reports under WinForms, ASP.NET and WPF environments. Stimulsoft Reports includes report designers, which can be run at design time and run time. It also includes viewers for displaying reports. You can use the system to export reports, in a number of different types of formats. One of the basic principles of using Stimulsoft Reports is different technologies but common approaches in creating reports. So when you need to migrate applications to new technologies the principles of working with reports remain unchanged.

The following editions are available:

Updates in 2011.1

Highlight Styles - The selected style is now stored and when style parameters are changed, design parameters and conditions are automatically updated.
Applying Parameters in Styles - In the new version of the condition editor, it is possible to specify which appearance parameters to use, and which not to use.
Improved the RequestFromUser option for variables - Now, using this option, the process of data request from the user can be greatly extended. It is possible to request not only simple values but nullable values, lists of values and value ranges.
Condition - Data Bar - Added a new Data Bar condition type to increase the quality of visual presentation of information. When using this condition, the reporting tool analysis all values in the specified data column. This information is used to display color bands in the output. This type of condition is very convenient to display the dynamics of changing data in the report. The Data Bar can only be used in text components.
Condition - Color Scale - Another new type of condition is the Color Scale. It is designed to display the dynamics of changing data. It is displayed by changing the background color of the component. This condition can only be used for text components.
Condition - Icons Set - Icon Set is a new type of condition to display graphical information in the text component. When using this condition, the report generator analyzes values in this column. The data is divided into ranges. Each range has its own icon. This condition is perfect for graphic reflection of the trends, the criteria of growth and decline, performance of various indicators. This condition can be used only for text components.
New Utilities for Converting Reports - Import utilities for RDL, Active Reports, XtraReports, and FastReport.Net.
New Types of Bar-codes - QR code, code 128 Auto and EAN 128 Auto.
MS Access Data - Added a separate type of connection for data connection to MS Access databases.
Connecting to EffiProz Data - The new version of our product supports connection to EffiProz databases.
Wizard for Placing Components - Added to simplify the placement of components in a band. If, when dragging a component, its border crosses the band border, then you will be prompted to automatically dock the component to the left or right side of the band. The size of components already placed in the band will be taken into account.
Wizard for Replacing Components - If you drag any field from the data dictionary to an existing component on a page, a replacement component wizard will be invoked. It offers options for adding or replacing the content of an existing component on data from the data dictionary.
Report Wizards in Silverlight - The previous version of the report designer for Silverlight, did not provide the ability to create reports using the Report Wizards. In the new version this omission was corrected. The following Report Wizards are added: Standard Report, Master-Detail Report and Label Report.
Styles in Dialogs - All controls now have the ComponentStyle property which is used for indicating a style. New styles can be created in the editor style.
Rotating Charts in a Report - The property allows rotating of a chart 90 degrees clockwise or anticlockwise; rotating a chart 180 degrees and flipping a chart either horizontally or vertically.
The Text in Cells Component in Stimulsoft Reports.Silverlight and Report Designer for Web - Added a new component to the reporting tool for Silverlight and Web - Text in Cells. The component is used to display text information in cells. It is typically used for printed forms.
Business Objects and Cross-Tab Component - Now you can select data including the category of Business Objects

XBAP Mode for Viewing Reports in WPF - This special version of the WPF viewer is designed to display reports in XBAP applications.
System Variables in Silverlight - Added display of system variables in the data dictionary. System variables are used to display various system information of a report - page number, current date and time, number of lines, etc.
CheckBox Component and Report Designer for Web - Support for the CheckBox component in Reports Designer.Web has been added. The component is used to display the flags of states.
Context Menu in Stimulsoft Reports Designer.Web - Added support for context menus. The menu is available for each report page.
