Improve Document Loading Speeds with Long Polling

May 13, 2024
TX Text Control .NET Server for ASP.NET 32.0 SP3 implements real-time server push for newly generated pages, accelerating client-side loading.

TX Text Control .NET Server for ASP.NET is a server-side component that equips your web applications with a powerful, MS Word-compatible document editor. This allows you to develop applications that generate and edit various document formats (RTF, DOCX, PDF, etc.) on the fly, using data from databases or files. It also boasts features like PDF generation and a browser-based editor with a familiar MS Word-inspired interface, ultimately enhancing the document processing capabilities of your ASP.NET web applications.

TX Text Control .NET Server's Document Viewer now utilizes long polling for asynchronous document loading. Instead of waiting for the entire document to be processed, the server starts sending generated pages as a stream. Using JavaScript, the client continuously consumes this stream, displaying each page as it arrives. Long polling eliminates the wait time typically associated with loading large documents, enhancing overall user satisfaction.

Export Charts to Image Formats with ASP.NET Core

April 25, 2024
Provide flexibility for users by giving your applications the ability to export charts to image formats such as PNG, JPG and more.

Exporting charts as images offers several advantages. It allows for easy sharing in documents, presentations, and social media without relying on the recipient having the original software. Popular formats include JPEG, PNG, and SVG. JPEGs offer small sizes for low bandwidth scenarios, while PNGs are ideal for charts with sharp lines and flat colors. SVGs are vector-based, enabling infinite scaling without quality loss, making them perfect for charts that may be resized frequently.

Several ASP.NET Core chart controls offer the ability to export charts to images including:

  • DevExpress ASP.NET Core Chart (Part of DevExpress ASP.NET and Blazor) empowers you to export charts as images for effortless sharing in reports and presentations.
  • Telerik ASP.NET Core Chart (part of Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core) lets you export charts to image formats such as PNG and JPEG, ensuring wider usability across platforms.
  • Syncfusion ASP.NET Core Chart (part of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise) facilitates seamless image export to JPEG, PNG, and SVG, promoting clear data visualization sharing.
