Platform Enhancements - ASP.NET MVC

• New controls! TabPanel and Dashboard Layout; see above.
• Material Theme Designer Sample
  • This interactive sample allows you to select primary and accent colors for your app, and produces the CSS you'll need to implement the styles for a Material Design app.
• FlexGrid Multi-line editing
  • By setting a column's multiline property to true, you can implement multi-line editing in a single FlexGrid cell. The control now recognizes a newline character (/n), and ALT+ENTER now acts as a line break, as in Excel.
• FlexSheet support for Excel-like tables
  • ASP.NET MVC's lightweight spreadsheet, FlexSheet, now supports Excel-like tables for selected ranges of cells. You can bind data directly to the table in the data source.
• Microsoft SSAS Cube support in OLAP
  • Wijmo's support for SSAS Cubes has come to ASP.NET MVC! The ASP.NET MVC PivotEngine now allows you to connect directly to OLAP cubes provided by SSAS servers. Previously, a DataEngine WebAPI was required to connect to SSAS Cubes, and now that's built directly into the OLAP control. You can continue to use DataEngine WebAPI to analyze very large datasets from varied sources. OLAP control is included in ComponentOne Studio Enterprise.
• FlexViewer supports ActiveReports
  • ASP.NET MVC FlexViewer now supports ActiveReports. Set the ActiveReports ServiceURL, FilePath, and ReportName properties in FlexViewer to view ActiveReports. In addition, PdfDocumentSource now supports CFF Fonts. If you have PDF Files that use CFF Fonts, these files will now load correctly in FlexViewer in all platforms.
