Here is a list of the more important changes we have done in CT2:
- Improved cascading styles
- Added CSS-like stylesheets that represent a set of global styles, which are applied to report items that match a given pattern:
- Matches item's type (TypeSelector)
- Matches item's property value (AttributeSelector)
- Matches ReportItemBase.StyleName (StyleSelector)
- Matches item's relationship with other items in the hierarcy (DescendantSelector)
- Export to PDF.
- The following events have been added:
- ReportItemBase.ItemDataBinding - fired before the item is databound
- ReportItemBase.ItemDataBound - fired after the item is databound
- ReportItemBase.PreRender - fired before the item is rendered
- Report.NewPage - fired when a new page begins rendering (valid only for rendering formats that support paging - PDF/Image/HTML)
- Design-time improvements:
