在 WPF 資料網格中輸入非拉丁字母

對輸入法編輯器（IME）的支援允許 WPF 應用程式直接在可編輯的網格元件中處理複雜字集的文本輸入。

Input Method Editor (IME) support refers to the capability of an application or control to correctly handle complex text input, particularly for languages that require composition, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. IME enables users to enter characters that are not directly available on a physical keyboard by converting sequences of keystrokes into the correct script, improving accessibility and usability for multilingual input. When applied to a data grid within an application, this capability ensures that users can reliably enter and edit multilingual text directly within grid cells without input loss or formatting issues. IME support in a data grid is especially valuable for applications that manage structured data across regions, as it allows accurate entry of names, descriptions, and other localized content while preserving normal grid behaviors such as editing, validation, and navigation.

Several WPF grid components include Input Method Editor support, including:

  • DevExpress WPF Data Grid (part of DevExpress WPF) supports multilingual input in grid cells, allowing users to enter complex characters as needed.
  • ComponentOne WPF FlexGrid (part of ComponentOne Studio WPF by MESCIUS) accommodates composed character entry for languages requiring input composition.
  • Infragistics Ultimate UI for WPF Data Grid (part of Infragistics Ultimate UI for WPF) facilitates complex script input within grid cells for multilingual data entry.

在 WPF 中組織複雜的使用者介面

1月 19, 2026
利用具備停靠功能的 UI 套件，讓使用者掌控 WPF 應用程式中的版面排列、浮動面板及持久工作區。

Docking controls are a key element of user interface design that enhance the usability of complex applications. They allow users to rearrange windows or panels within the main application window, making it easier to create personalized, efficient layouts. These controls typically support drag-and-drop interactions and automatic alignment, which help users maintain a tidy and organized workspace while working with multiple tools or data views. Docking frameworks often include features like tabbed documents, floating windows, and layout persistence, all of which contribute to a more flexible and user-driven application environment. This makes docking especially useful in professional software environments that involve large volumes of information or tool-based workflows.

Several WPF UI suites provide you with docking support, including:

  • DevExpress WPF offers a comprehensive docking system with advanced layout persistence, tabbed document interfaces, and runtime customization.
  • ComponentOne Studio WPF by MESCIUS provides a docking control that supports auto-hide, floating windows, and full integration with its theme and layout systems.
  • Telerik UI for WPF supports dockable and floatable panes, tabbed documents, nested docking, layout saving/loading, and other docking behaviors suitable for complex UIs.
  • Infragistics Ultimate UI for WPF features a flexible docking framework with rich layout options, including nested panes and content serialization for saving and restoring layouts.

用 AI 提示控制應用程式的行為

1月 13, 2026
DevExpress Universal 25.2 新增一個 API，允許應用程式在運行時解讀使用者意圖並直接對 UI 元件和邏輯進行更改。

DevExpress Universal is a comprehensive suite of UI components and developer tools that supports the creation of feature-rich applications across web, desktop, and mobile platforms, including .NET, JavaScript, Blazor, ASP.NET, WinForms, WPF, and MAUI. It focuses on delivering consistent user interfaces, advanced data visualization, reporting, dashboards, and productivity features that help teams design, build, and maintain complex applications using a unified set of technologies and patterns.

DevExpress Universal v25.2 introduces AI Tool Calling (Natural Language Control for UI Components), a cross-platform feature that extends Microsoft.Extensions.AI tool-calling to enable natural-language interaction with application UI and logic. Developers can expose UI components, ViewModels, and business services as AI-invokable tools, grouped into dynamic toolsets that adapt to the application’s current context. When users interact through the DevExpress AI Chat Control, the language model interprets their request, selects the appropriate tool, resolves the target instance, and executes the action in real time, making applications easier to use while giving developers full control over what the AI can see and do.

DevExpress Universal is licensed per developer and is available as a Perpetual License with a 12 month support and maintenance subscription. See our DevExpress Universal licensing page for full details.

更改頁面順序以改進文件結構，支援合規需求，更高效地管理複雜的 PDF。

Moving pages in a PDF file refers to the ability to change the order of individual pages within the document. This is typically done by dragging and dropping pages into a new sequence or by specifying where a page should be relocated. The main benefit of this feature is improved document organization, especially in cases where content needs to be restructured for clarity, relevance, or compliance with formatting requirements. It also simplifies tasks such as compiling reports, merging multiple sources, or preparing documents for printing and distribution, making it easier to manage large or complex PDF files efficiently.

Several WPF PDF components allow you to move pages in a PDF, including:

  • Telerik UI for WPF PdfProcessing (part of Telerik UI for WPF) lets you reorder PDF pages programmatically, enabling the dynamic restructuring of documents in WPF apps.
  • IronPDF for .NET by Iron Software allows you to reposition pages inside PDFs via code, helping developers customize document flow and prepare files for output or review.
  • XFINIUM.PDF WPF/UWP EDITION enables page movement within PDFs, giving UWP and WPF applications precise control over document layout and sequence adjustments.
  • Syncfusion WPF PDF (part of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise) lets you reorder pages in PDF files through its API, supporting document editing and structured presentation.
