RELEASE HISTORY
New Controls
PivotGrid (Official Release)
The official version of our powerful RadPivotGrid comes out with a lot of new and exciting features, including Sorting, Report Filter and Total Formats support for OLAP. We also introduce Data Annotations support alongside with the full set of our themes and many other enhancements which you can check in our demo application.
Spreadsheet (CTP Release)
RadSpreadsheet allows MS-Excel-like editing of tabular data using a variety of cell formatting options, styles and themes. The new control is a fine-tuned blend of clean, elegant UI and exceptionally fast performance. While spreadsheet component does not have a broad range of predefined formulas, it can be extended by creating and plugging in supplementary ones. Using the control is extremely simple because of the exposed commands that can be easily bound to the full integration with RadRibbonView and the many dialogs that come out of the box.
TileList (Beta Release)
RadTileList is a control that displays tiles in a mosaic manner allowing you to represent a small amount of data in the form of tiles that the end-user is able to smoothly scroll left or right with a gesture, as is the case in Windows 8. The tiles can also be reordered by drag-and-drop. With RadTileList you can have a Modern UI experience in your next XAML application.
BarcodeReader (Beta Release)
RadBarcodeReader is the newest addition to Telerik’s Barcode suite. In its present beta version the control is capable of decoding most of the one–dimensional codes offered by Telerik, such as Code128 and code 11. In the next installment of the product RadBarcodeReader will be capable of decoding two-dimensional codes, such as PDF417 and QR.
