Wijmo 5 adds Angular 2 Beta 1 support

Wijmo 5 is a new generation of JavaScript controls which introduces a new HTML5/JavaScript product that takes full advantage of all the latest and greatest web technologies without making compromises to support legacy browsers. With touch-first design and full Angular support, these highly performant, lightweight controls allow you to deliver next-generation HTML5 applications.

Wijmo 5 is also available as part of:

• ComponentOne Ultimate
• Wijmo Enterprise

Updates in 2015 v3.5 Build 117

• Added Angular 2 Explorer sample with components for core Wijmo controls. The sample uses Beta.1 version of Angular 2. Read the Angular 2 blog
• Added a wijmo.input.DropDown.dropDownCssClass property to make it easier to style the drop-down elements of the controls (this applies to all controls that extend DropDown, including ComboBox, MultiSelect, InputDate, InputTime, etc).
• Added a wijmo.grid.Column.dropDownCssClass property to make it easier to style the drop-down list used to edit cells in columns that have dataMaps.
• Added a wijmo.collections.CollectionView.useStableSort property that causes the CollectionView class to use a stable sort algorithm which is 30 to 50% slower than the native sort but maintains the relative order of records with equal keys.
• Added a new InputDateTime control to enter/edit date and time values using a single control (as opposed to using an InputDate and an InputTime).
• Added a new FlexGrid.imeEnbled property to support IME modes while the grid is not in edit mode. This property benefits sites and applications in Japanese, Chinese, Korean and other languages that require IME support.
• Improved FlexGrid.focus() implementation to prevent the browser from scrolling the grid's hostElement into view when the grid gets focus.
• Improved allowAddNew to work better with childItemsPath.
• Improved IE9 polyfill to support drag/drop in modal dialogs (TFS 140812)
• wijmo.xlsx added support for several new functions.
• wijmo.xlsx added support for importing shared formulas.
• wijmo.xlsx improved performance.
• wijmo.grid.sheet added support for user-provided custom functions, see the FlexSheet.addCustomFunction method.
• wijmo.grid.sheet added FlexSheet.unknownFunction event that allows processing non-supported functions found in cell expressions.
• wijmo.grid.sheet added Sheet.itemsSource property that allows changing the items source for data bound sheets.
