RELEASE HISTORY
Hightlights
TileList (Official Release)
The RadTileList control that enables easy viewing and scrolling through data via tiles (similar to Windows 8) goes official! With this release, we’ve added grouping, so you can arrange your tiles in pre-defined groups making it easy to navigate and locate exactly what you need, fast.
Spreadsheet (Beta Release)
RadSpreadsheet allows MS-Excel-like editing of tabular data using a variety of cell formatting options, styles and themes. In Q2 2013, an enriched set of built-in formulas, Find and Replace functionality and Hyperlink support round out this control and document processing tool for XLSX files.
