Intégrez des données JSON dans vos rapports de ASP.NET Core

Février 12, 2024
Le choix d’un composant de création de rapports, avec prise en charge du format JSON, permet une interopérabilité et un traitement dynamique des données pour obtenir des rapports adaptables.

Février 12, 2024
Les composants PDF, avec prise en charge de la navigation par vignettes, offrent aux utilisateurs une interface familière pour explorer avec fluidité des documents dans votre application WPF.

Several PDF components for WPF offer thumbnail navigation including:

  • Telerik UI PDF for WPF (part of Telerik UI for WPF) allows you to display thumbnails for intuitive page navigation within your WPF apps.
  • ComponentOne Studio WPF PDF (part of ComponentOne Studio WPF by MESCIUS) enhances the user experience with easy-to-implement thumbnail navigation for quick document browsing in WPF projects.
