Janvier 6, 2026
Spread.NET v19 ajoute un moteur de table croisée dynamique qui permet aux utilisateurs de résumer, d’analyser et d’explorer de grands ensembles de données directement dans le tableau.

Spread.NET by MESCIUS is a tool for building Excel-like applications in your .NET projects. It lets you create interactive spreadsheets, grids, dashboards, and even forms within WinForms, ASP.NET, and WPF applications. With its rich feature set, including a robust calculation engine, formula support, and Excel compatibility, Spread.NET helps developers to build data analysis tools, budgeting apps, scientific dashboards, and more, all within the familiar .NET environment.

The Spread.NET v19 update introduces a new pivot table engine that enables software developers to summarize, analyze, and explore large datasets directly within WinForms applications. This built-in capability supports interactive grouping, filtering, and multidimensional analysis inside the spreadsheet, allowing users to work with complex data without exporting it to external reporting or business intelligence tools. By delivering Excel-like pivot table functionality with high performance and programmatic control, the pivot engine helps developers simplify application architecture, reduce dependencies, and provide a more integrated and responsive data analysis experience for end users.

Activez l’annotation PDF dans les applications WinForms

Décembre 19, 2025
Les lecteurs PDF avec outils d’annotation intégrés permettent aux utilisateurs de relire, commenter et collaborer sur les documents sans modifier le contenu original.

PDF annotation in .NET WinForms PDF viewer components refers to the ability to add visual and textual markup directly onto PDF documents without altering the original content. These tools allow users to draw shapes, highlight text, insert comments, and place notes within the viewing interface, supporting workflows such as document review, feedback, and approval. This functionality improves collaboration and clarity in document handling, making it well-suited for document processing tasks in WinForms applications.

Common features include:

  • Freehand Draw (Ink Annotation) allows users to sketch, underline, or handwrite directly on the page using a mouse, stylus, or touch input, making it ideal for markups and signatures.
  • Lines provide a simple way to connect points or emphasize linear elements within a document, often with configurable thickness, color, and opacity.
  • Rectangles enable users to highlight or frame areas of interest, supporting both outlined and filled styles for visual emphasis.
  • Ellipses offer a similar highlighting function to rectangles but with a rounded shape, useful for circling content or marking irregular regions.
  • Arrows are commonly used to direct attention to specific content, combining line styling with arrowheads to clearly indicate focus or flow.
  • Sticky Note annotations allow users to attach comments to precise locations in the document, typically displayed as icons that reveal text on interaction.
  • Free Text enables direct placement of typed text onto the page with control over font, size, color, and alignment, supporting clear, visible commentary without pop-ups.

Optimisez les entrées de rapports avec des dialogues conçus spécialement

Décembre 11, 2025
Créez des rapports plus propres et plus cohérents avec des formes de paramètres de dialogue, en garantissant des entrées fiables et précises pour les filtres, regroupements et calculs.

Dialog forms for parameters in reporting provide a structured and user friendly way to collect the inputs needed for accurate, relevant reports. Instead of relying on manual entry or remembered criteria, users are guided through fields that ensure consistent and valid information. This improves report quality and reduces errors in scenarios such as choosing date ranges, product categories, regions, or departments. By centralizing parameter entry in a clean interface, dialog forms let users focus on interpreting results rather than managing input details.

Several .NET WinForms reporting components allow you to create dialog forms for parameters, including:

  • DevExpress Reporting lets you create guided parameter dialogs that collect accurate user inputs, improving report precision, usability, and efficiency across applications.
  • Telerik Reporting allows you to build intuitive parameter dialogs that improve data selection, ensuring users generate consistent, reliable reports with minimal effort.
  • FastReport .NET WinForms facilitates customizable parameter dialogs that validate user input, enhancing report accuracy and simplifying complex filtering and configuration tasks.
  • Stimulsoft Reports.NET enables structured parameter dialog creation that helps users supply correct reporting criteria, delivering clearer insights and more dependable results.
