Updated Microsoft .NET 5 targets to .NET 6 since .NET 5 is out of support. Users can continue to use Microsoft .NET Core 3.1 targets for .NET 5 applications.
Updated Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2 and 4.6.1 targets to .NET Framework 4.6.2 since it is the most recent supported version of .NET Framework.
Updated SyntaxEditor-related NuGet packages to properly support cross-platform .NET 6.0.
Updated all assemblies to be code-signed.
Bars
Added a new Bars product, which implements advanced fluent ribbons, toolbars, menus and related controls.
The Ribbon control has the latest Microsoft Office appearance and includes the use of subtle animations throughout all controls.
Ribbon can instantly switch between Classic (taller) and Simplified (single-row) layout modes, allowing for configuration of the variant resizing behavior in both modes.
Complex galleries can appear in the Ribbon, as well as in any popup and context menu. It's simple to create new galleries with rich visualizations for any need.
The StandaloneToolBar control can be used as an app's primary toolbar, or alternatively within tool windows. It can host any control that can be used in Ribbon and overflows items to a popup as needed.
Three user interface density options can be chosen, letting your application select whether to better support a large number of controls, or focus more on touch-friendliness.
Controls inherit similar native WPF controls wherever possible.
UI accessbility peers are implemented for the entire control hierarchy.
The entire control hierarchy can be built using MVVM (preferred), or alternatively directly in XAML.
An optional MVVM library is available that makes it easy to configure the Bars controls with MVVM techniques.
Docking
Improved docking window images to support monochrome vector image adaptation via ImageProvider.
Editors
Added the CanSnapToChangePrecision property to DoubleEditBox and SingleEditBox controls, which determines if the value should be snapped to the precision of the incremental change value prior to applying the increment.
Updated ByteEditBox, Int16EditBox, Int32EditBox, and SingleEditBox so out of range values (up to Int64 or Double) are trimmed to the allowed minimum/maximum range of the control instead of being treated as invalid input.
Themes
Updated the WindowChrome template so its AdornerDecorator only surrounds the window's content area instead of the entire chrome, which prevents adorners from showing on top of WindowChrome overlays.
Shared
Added the EmbeddedTextBox.CanSelectAllOnFocus property that if enabled, selects all text when the control receives focus.
Added the ImageProviderRequest.Source property and updated DynamicImage to pass itself as the source when making requests.
Updated EmbeddedTextBox when read-only to disable the Paste command.
Updated ImageProvider to support adaptation of DrawingImages nested within other DrawingImages.
