Formatieren von Datenrastern als Karten in .NET-Anwendungen

August 28, 2025
Die Verwendung der Kartenansicht ermöglicht es Entwicklern, Rasterdaten in einem strukturierten visuellen Layout anzuzeigen, was die Lesbarkeit und die Benutzerbindung verbessert.

Card view is a grid layout option that displays data as a series of individual cards arranged in rows and columns, rather than as traditional table rows. Each card encapsulates related fields, often with custom formatting and embedded controls, allowing for more visual and flexible presentation of complex data. This format is especially beneficial in scenarios where users need to review, interact with, or compare structured records involving rich content or media in a more engaging and user-friendly layout.

Several .NET grid components allow you to use card view, including:

  • DevExpress WPF Data Grid (part of DevExpress WPF) allows developers to present data in an adaptive, visually organized card‑style grid layout in WPF applications.
  • Xceed DataGrid for WPF by Xceed Software includes feature-rich 2D and 3D card modes that organize tabular data into flexible and responsive card views.
  • Wisej.NET DataGridView (part of Wisej.NET) delivers responsive card layout capabilities for modern HTML5 applications using .NET and C#/VB.NET instead of HTML and JavaScript.
  • Infragistics WinDataGrid (part of Infragistics Ultimate UI for Windows Forms) supports card view, enabling developers to present grouped fields in a card-style layout.

Document Solutions for PDF v8.2 bietet eine nahtlose KI-Integration mit OpenAI, um unstrukturierte PDFs in nutzbare Daten umzuwandeln.

Document Solutions for PDF (DsPdf) by MESCIUS is a software development toolkit that provides .NET Core libraries and a JavaScript PDF viewer for manipulating and displaying PDFs. DsPdf enables developers to create, edit, annotate, and redact PDF documents directly within web applications. The included DsPdfViewer component offers a feature-rich, cross-platform solution for viewing and interacting with PDFs in modern browsers on various operating systems, including mobile devices.

The Document Solutions for PDF v8.2 update introduces a new AI-powered capability to extract tables from documents, enabling developers to convert unstructured tabular data in PDFs into structured, machine-readable formats with ease. By leveraging natural language prompts through OpenAI or Azure OpenAI services, this feature eliminates the need for manual parsing or coordinate-based extraction, reducing development effort. It provides reliable output even from PDFs with complex layouts or inconsistent formatting.

To see a full list of what's new in version 8.2, see our release notes.

Document Solutions for PDF is licensed per developer and is available in several license options for differing distribution needs. Team licenses are also available for multiple developers within the same organization. See our Document Solutions for PDF licensing page for full details.

Document Solutions for PDF is available to buy individually or as part of Document Solutions .NET Bundle.

Wiederherstellen der Arbeit nach Fehlern in der Entwicklungsumgebung

August 28, 2025
Mit CodeCanvas 2025.3 können Sie auf nicht gepushte Änderungen zugreifen, indem Sie eine Wiederherstellungsumgebung erstellen, die das ursprüngliche Volumen aus dem fehlgeschlagenen Setup verwendet.

CodeCanvas is JetBrains’ answer to the growing need for scalable, cloud-based development setups that don’t compromise on control or tooling preferences. As a cloud development environment (CDE) orchestrator, it allows teams to spin up consistent and fully configured development environments using their favorite JetBrains IDEs - all within their own infrastructure. This setup significantly reduces the overhead of environment mismatches and local setup time, making it easier for developers to start writing code immediately, no matter where they’re working from.

The CodeCanvas 2025.3 release adds the ability to recover data from failed development environments. If an environment fails to start - whether due to configuration errors, system issues, or other problems - you can now create a dedicated recovery environment that retains the volume of the original setup. This means that any unpushed code or unsaved data left behind can still be accessed, reviewed, and preserved. It's a practical safeguard for developers working in cloud-based workflows, helping to reduce the risk of lost work and ensuring continuity across development sessions.

To see a full list of what's new in version 2025.3, see our release notes.

CodeCanvas is available as an annual subscription license. It uses a floating license model governed by Daily Active Users (DAU). Any user can access CodeCanvas as long as the number of users active on any single day does not exceed the total licenses purchased. The license pool resets every 24 hours, enabling different team members to rotate access. See our CodeCanvas licensing page for full details.

Einbetten der PDF-Konvertierung in JavaScript-Apps

August 27, 2025
Die Integration von PDF-Komponenten mit einer Konvertierungsunterstützung in JavaScript-Apps ermöglicht es Benutzern, Dokumente zwischen PDF und anderen Dateiformaten zu konvertieren.

JavaScript PDF components that support format conversion play a critical role in modern web and enterprise applications, allowing developers to programmatically generate, manipulate, and transform documents within the browser or on the server. These tools simplify workflows that require format interoperability, such as generating printable reports from web content, archiving dynamic documents, or extracting data for analysis. Their ability to convert between PDF and other widely used formats ensures compatibility across systems, supports digital transformation goals, and enhances document handling efficiency.

Common conversions include:

  • HTML to PDF: Render entire web pages or fragments into paginated PDF documents while preserving layout, styles, and interactive elements.
  • PDF to Excel: Extract tabular data from PDFs, converting it into XLS or XLSX files for data analysis or re-use in spreadsheet applications.
  • PDF to Image: Convert each page of a PDF into image formats such as PNG or JPEG, useful for previews, thumbnails, or annotations.
  • RTF to PDF: Convert Rich Text Format files into PDFs to preserve text styling and document structure in a widely accepted format.
  • PDF to PowerPoint: Convert PDF content into PPT or PPTX format, enabling slide-based presentation of document content.
  • PDF to SVG: Translate PDF pages into scalable vector graphics, ideal for embedding high-quality visuals in web pages.
  • Word to PDF: Transform DOC or DOCX files into PDFs, retaining formatting, tables, and images for standardized sharing and storage.

Darstellen von QR-Codes und Barcodes in React-Apps

August 27, 2025
React-UI-Pakete enthalten robuste Barcode-Tools, mit denen Entwickler Formate, Größen, Symbole und Exportoptionen mit minimaler Konfiguration anpassen können.

Barcode components in React UI suites deliver a easy way to integrate machine-readable encoding directly into modern web applications. These components offer a high-level interface for rendering both one-dimensional and two-dimensional barcodes, with customizable options for type (symbology), dimensions, styling, and export formats. They enable developers to choose between vector-based (SVG) or bitmap (Canvas) rendering, and often support direct exports to PNG, PDF, or SVG formats. Such features make barcodes a flexible integration point for inventory systems, shipping labels, ticketing, and other use cases requiring reliable, visual encoding of data within React environments.

Several React UI suites offer Barcode components including:

  • KendoReact by Telerik supports a wide range of one-dimensional (1D) symbologies as well as QR codes, configurable via props for size, color, border, and text.
  • Wijmo by MESCIUS provides React wrappers for numerous barcode controls, including Code128, Codabar, Code39, Ean8, Ean13, GS1-128, QR Code and UPC variants.
  • Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise offers React barcode generator components that support both 1D and 2D encoding, including Codabar, QR code, DataMatrix, and UPC-A.
  • jQWidgets includes both barcode and QR Code components among its widget set, making barcode generation available in its comprehensive suite of UI elements.
