Juli 10, 2025
DevExpress Reporting v25.1 integriert einen neuen Berichtassistenten, der Eingaben in natürlicher Sprache für die automatische Erstellung von Berichtlayouts verwendet.

DevExpress Reporting is a comprehensive suite of reporting tools that empowers developers to create visually stunning and highly customizable reports for various applications. With its rich feature set, including data binding, layout design, printing, and exporting capabilities, DevExpress Reporting enables the efficient creation of reports that meet the most demanding business requirements.

The DevExpress Reporting v25.1 update introduces a new AI-powered Report Wizard (currently in Community Technology Preview), bringing natural language capabilities directly into the report design workflow. By allowing users to describe the report they need in plain text, the wizard interprets this input and automatically generates a matching report layout. This greatly reduces the time and expertise required to design reports, particularly for users who may not be familiar with the underlying report schema or expression syntax. It’s especially useful for quickly prototyping reports or enabling non-technical users to contribute to report design without writing code or manually configuring elements.

To see a full list of what's new in version 25.1, see our release notes.

DevExpress Reporting is licensed per developer and is available as a Perpetual License with a 12 month support and maintenance subscription. See our DevExpress Reporting licensing page for full details.

Visualisieren Sie Trends mit Compact Sparklines

Juli 7, 2025
Sparklines in Rastern liefern schnelle visuelle Einblicke, indem sie Datentrends innerhalb von Zellen anzeigen und so die Klarheit, den Vergleich und die Entscheidungsfindung verbessern.

Sparklines are small embedded charts displayed within individual cells of a data grid or table, offering a compact and intuitive way to visualize trends, patterns and variations in data. Unlike traditional charts, sparklines are designed to fit alongside text or numerical values, providing immediate visual context without taking up additional space. This makes them ideal for high density dashboards and reports where space efficiency and quick interpretation are important. By enabling users to scan and compare trends across multiple rows at a glance, sparklines support faster decision making and improved data comprehension. Common use cases include tracking stock performance over time, visualizing monthly sales trends, monitoring temperature fluctuations or comparing website traffic across multiple pages directly within the grid.

Several .NET Winforms grid controls offer support for sparklines including:

  • NOV Grid for .NET lets you embed sparklines directly into grid cells, enabling real-time trend visualization and compact data analysis.
  • Infragistics WinDataGrid (part of Infragistics Ultimate UI for Windows Forms) allows you to present performance trends within rows using sparklines, improving clarity and insight.
  • FlexGrid for WinForms (part of ComponentOne Studio WinForms by MESCIUS) facilitates data interpretation by integrating sparklines into each row for immediate visual context.
  • DevExpress WinForms Data Grid (part of DevExpress WinForms) enables compact graphical summaries with sparklines, allowing users to easily detect patterns.

Juli 3, 2025
Mit Telerik UI für WinForms können Sie Copyright-Beschriftungen direkt zur Kartenoberfläche hinzuzufügen, was die Compliance vereinfacht und das Vertrauen in Kartografieanwendungen steigert.

Telerik UI for WinForms is a comprehensive UI library offering over 160 versatile controls designed to streamline the development of modern, data-rich desktop applications. With features like built-in High DPI support, extensive customization options, and components ranging from grids and charts to schedulers and rich text boxes, it empowers developers to craft visually appealing and feature-packed Windows Forms applications.

Telerik UI for WinForms includes a customizable copyright label UI element in the RadMap control. This feature enables the display of information such as source attribution or licensing directly on the map surface. This creates trust and supports legal and ethical use of third-party map providers by making attribution visible to end users. Such support enables compliance with common mapping data usage requirements for commercial applications, which is often mandated by services like OpenStreetMap or Bing Maps. By integrating this element into the visual layer of the map, applications can ensure that attribution remains persistent and clearly associated with the displayed geographic content without requiring additional layout adjustments.

Telerik UI for WinForms is licensed per developer and has two licensing models: an annual Subscription License and a Perpetual License. The Subscription license provides access to the latest product updates, technical support, and exclusive benefits for a flat annual fee, and must be renewed to continue using the software.
