將新式 Outlook 導航帶到 WPF 功能區

1月 9, 2026
DevExpress WPF 25.2 添加功能區頁頭按鈕，用於切換功能窗格，從而呼應了 Microsoft Outlook 熟悉的使用者體驗。

DevExpress WPF is a powerful suite of controls that enhances your WPF development toolkit. It offers data grids, ribbon menus, rich text editors, spreadsheets, charts, and more, all with beautiful themes and touch-friendly interfaces. DevExpress WPF helps you to build professional-looking, responsive applications that meet modern user expectations, saving you time and effort while adding polish and functionality.

The DevExpress WPF 25.2 update introduces support for a Page Header Button positioned directly in the ribbon’s page header area. This new UI element allows developers to replicate the toggle behavior seen in recent versions of Microsoft Outlook, where users can expand or collapse navigation panes with a single click. It is a simple yet effective way to enhance usability in complex applications, particularly those that rely on dynamic side panels or menus. This new functionality brings a modern and intuitive interaction model to WPF-based interfaces, aligning with common user expectations.

To see a full list of what's new in version 25.2, see our release notes.

DevExpress WPF is licensed per developer and is available as a Perpetual License with a 12 month support and maintenance subscription. We can supply new subscriptions, subscription renewals, and additional licenses. See our DevExpress WPF licensing page for full details.

應用動態篩選和使用者自定義條件來提供針對特定場景定制的更相關、準確且可操作的報表。

Report parameters allow users to customize and control how data is displayed by filtering results or supplying specific values at runtime. This enables more personalized, relevant reporting without the need to create multiple versions of the same report. By using parameters, organizations can improve data accuracy, improve report management, and help users to explore insights independently. Common use cases include filtering reports by date range, region, department, or product, setting thresholds or targets for performance analysis, and dynamically updating dashboards based on user-selected criteria.

Several .NET reporting components include support for parameters:

  • Telerik Reporting facilitates parameterized reporting to customize data views, reuse reports efficiently, and support interactive decision-making for diverse audiences.
  • DevExpress Reporting lets you define parameters to filter data, personalize layouts, and deliver interactive, context-aware reports across applications and dashboards.
  • List & Label Enterprise Reporting Edition by combit lets developers use parameters to tailor output and reduce duplication.
  • Stimulsoft Reports.NET allows runtime parameters for dynamic filtering, user-driven input, and adaptable reports that respond instantly to changing business requirements.

透過原地直接編輯記錄，無需離開資料視圖即可快速更新。

Forms in grids combine tabular data display with built-in form editing, allowing users to view and update records directly within the grid instead of switching to separate edit screens. This approach improves efficiency by keeping users in context, reducing navigation, and providing immediate validation and feedback. Forms in grids are commonly used in administrative dashboards, configuration screens, and data-heavy business applications where users need to edit multiple records quickly while maintaining visibility of related data.

Several .NET grid components enable form-based editing within grids, including:

  • DevExpress WinForms Data Grid (part of DevExpress WinForms) lets you embed forms within rows for fast editing and validation in complex application scenarios.
  • Telerik UI for WPF DataGrid (part of Telerik UI for WPF) allows you to combine grid-based forms with native styling for efficient in-place data editing.
  • Wisej.NET facilitates form-driven editing directly inside grids, enabling responsive web-like experiences with server-side logic for enterprise applications and rapid development.
  • NOV Grid for .NET allows you to manage complex datasets using integrated grid forms that support validation, customization, and scalability.

用範圍圖清晰比較數值

透過能視覺化兩個資料點之間價帶的範圍區域圖獲得財務見解，從而揭示價格區間、預測和趨勢。

Range charts visualize financial data based on fixed price movements rather than time intervals, grouping activity into consistent ranges to highlight meaningful price action. By filtering out minor fluctuations and market noise, they make trends, volatility, support, and resistance levels easier to identify, especially in fast-moving or irregular markets. Common use cases include technical analysis for trading platforms, monitoring price volatility in equities or cryptocurrencies, and analyzing high-frequency financial data where understanding true market behavior is more important than tracking time-based changes.

Several React charting components provide you with range charts, including:

  • DevExtreme React Chart (part of DevExtreme Complete by Devexpress) lets you build financial range charts that emphasize price movement and support precise trend analysis.
  • amCharts 5: Charts facilitates creating interactive range charts that filter minor fluctuations and clearly expose underlying price trends effectively visually.
  • AnyChart JS lets you implement flexible range charts for financial dashboards, improving volatility analysis, pattern recognition, and decision-making accuracy speed.
  • Infragistics Ignite UI for React Chart (part of Infragistics Ignite UI) allows you to visualize range charts for volatile markets, revealing momentum and insights.
