What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF V4.3?

• Improved performance during horizontal scrolling with a large number of columns
• Improved responsiveness and efficiency in auto-filtering when there are changes in the data source
• Initial loading and vertical scrolling have been improved
• Scrolling performance improved while dragging a column over the edges of the datagrid
• Developers now have access to several command-related methods

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF V4.2?
Xceed DataGrid for WPF version 4.2 features performance improvements to its Cardflow 3D view. This version takes better advantage of the computer’s video card to help render card animation, providing a vastly smoother scrolling experience. The more cards there are, and the bigger they are, the more pronounced the improvements will be. And because this takes the computation burden off the computer’s CPU, the application’s performance can improve in general.

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 4.1?
This version features improved support of the MVVM architectural pattern, which will make it easier for designers and developers to work together concurrently on a project, thanks to a better separation of the View from the rest of the architecture. This translates to better apps, faster. The ability to sort based on the results of statistical functions has also been added. Improvements have also been made to how the datagrid interacts with its items source, and styling cell content alignment for specific columns has been simplified.

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 4?
Xceed DataGrid for WPF now includes two installers, Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 4 for .NET framework 4 / Visual Studio 2010 and Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.7 for previous editions of the .NET Framework.

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.7?

• A new continuous insertion mode property lets programmers deliver improved data entry to end-users, removing the need to manually go to the first editable cell after entering a row’s data.
• New events give programmers control over how the data grid reacts when the current visual row is changing or has changed, and allows the change to be canceled in certain situations.
• Column cells can now be non-focusable when read-only.
• Notifications for auto-filter value changes are now provided.
• Unicode is now enabled in the grid’s clipboard exporters for enhanced character support.

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.6 Edition?

• Windows 7 and Xceed Live Explorer themes
• Print Preview
• Multi-Select when using data virtualization
• Group Navigation control
• Improved performance for scenarios of 100,000 rows and up
• Cell Selection

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.5 Edition?
Xceed DataGrid for WPF Professional Edition v3.5 features a beautiful new view called Tableflow. This view offers fast animated smooth scrolling with inertia for impressive UI performance (works with data virtualization), sticky group headers and master-detail master row and headers, full-column animated drag and drop reordering. Also new is filtering and status indicator glyphs for datagrids bound to a virtualizing collection.

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.2 Edition?
Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.2 Professional Edition features improvements to the datagrid's data virtualization capabilities (grouping, support for data sources implementing IQueryable (LINQ), support for inserting and deleting items with InsertionRow and DeleteCommand), support for Entity Framework data sources, and the ability to customize the contents of the AutoFilterControl. Both the Professional Edition and the Standard Edition v3.2 feature a ComboBox editor (combo boxes can now easily be used as cell editors now without the need to write code to fill the combo box) and unbound columns.

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.1 Edition?
Features asynchronous data virtualization that supports caching, pre-emptive loading, and delayed triggering of events to avoid needless querying during scrolling. Vastly improving performance and reducing memory usage, especially when working with large data sources, it also means the UI is decoupled from the data source, which keeps the application responsive while data is being retrieved. Also new are Excel export, persist/restore of user settings, context menu column chooser, and UI automation to enable script-based testing and assistive technology, and more.

What's new in Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.0 Edition?

Xceed DataGrid for WPF Version 3.0 Professional Edition features a 3D view. Xceed's Cardflow 3D view, with multiple card layouts and transitions, gives developers and end-users complete control over aspects such as card offsets, spacing, and angles; camera position and angle; and field of view. Further views will be added for the foreseeable future as they become available. A choice of four multi-surface themes is provided: Three Outlook look-alike themes (Elemental Blue, Elemental Black, Elemental Silver), and Chameleon, which lets you choose the gradient colors. End-users can even switch between any 2D and 3D view on the fly, while the datagrid retains its state.
