使用椭圆形状进行重点文档审阅

9月 19, 2025
椭圆批注提供了一种非侵入式方式来标记或注释 PDF 文档区域，从而支持可自定义的边框和填充。

Ellipse annotations in PDF viewer components are shape‑based markups that allow users to draw oval or circular outlines (or filled ellipses) on PDF pages. Such annotations are valuable in highlighting regions, drawing attention to content, or visually marking up documents for review without altering the underlying text. They generally include settings for border color, line width, fill color or transparency, and may offer popup notes, captions, or comments associated with the ellipse shape. The feature supports both interactive use and programmatic control in many viewers.

Several React PDF viewer controls offer support for ellipse annotations including:

  • Document Solutions for PDF by MESCIUS provides a CircleAnnotation class allowing users to place an ellipse on a page and configure its position.
  • Syncfusion PDF Viewer (part of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise) supports ellipse shape annotations and customize stroke and fill color, thickness and opacity.
  • PrizmDoc Viewer by Accusoft allows users to draw, edit, or delete ellipse annotations, add comments, and control the display settings of those annotations.

用 Sankey 系列图表跟踪数据流

TeeChart Pro VCL/FMX 2025.45.250910 添加对 Sankey 系列的支持，以更清晰地映射复杂的数据关系和流量分布。

TeeChart Pro VCL/FMX by Steema Software is a comprehensive charting library designed for Embarcadero's Delphi and C++Builder environments, supporting both the VCL (Visual Component Library) and FMX (FireMonkey) frameworks. It provides developers with a rich set of chart types, advanced data visualization tools, and interactive features to build visually compelling and data-intensive applications across Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. With support for real-time charting, custom drawing, statistical functions, and export capabilities, TeeChart Pro is tailored for high-performance applications that demand precise and dynamic chart displays.

The TeeChart Pro VCL/FMX 2025 (Build 2025.45.250910) update introduces the Sankey Series chart type, which gives developers a new tool for visualizing flows and relationships in data (e.g. movement of quantities between states, split‑paths, or aggregations). It enables rendering of nodes and links whose thickness is proportional to the magnitude of the flow, allowing you to more directly see how values distribute and split across paths. This enhances insight into complex datasets in ways that standard bar, line, or pie charts cannot, helping in diagnosing bottlenecks, tracing resource paths, or modelling multi‑stage processes with clarity.

To see a full list of what's new in 2025 (Build 2025.45.250910), see our release notes.

TeeChart Pro VCL/FMX is licensed per developer and includes a one year subscription for minor and major updates plus access to technical support. Priority support is also available. See our TeeChart Pro VCL/FMX licensing page for full details.

用交互式关系图可视化数据

9月 18, 2025
将组织结构图和工作流等复杂结构转换为易于更新和理解的清晰、动态的视觉效果。

Diagrams in UI toolkits help turn complex data into easy-to-understand visuals that teams can interact with. For example, organizational charts show company structures and reporting lines in a layout that can be updated automatically from HR data. These charts can be expanded, collapsed, or reorganized with drag-and-drop tools, making it easier to understand team relationships and keep information up to date. Diagrams can also be used for workflows, decision trees, and network maps, giving teams a clear, flexible way to present and manage information.

Several React UI suites offer diagram controls including:

  • DevExtreme Complete by DevExpress lets you build interactive diagrams, including organizational charts, process flows, and network structures, with responsive layouts.
  • SmartClient by Isomorphic Software facilitates advanced diagramming, supporting hierarchical org charts, decision trees, and workflow visualizations.
  • Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise allows you to create rich diagrams with data binding, automatic layouts, and interactive editing for diverse enterprise applications.
