What's New

NEW

• RadWebCam - allows you to display the stream provided by a web camera device. You can easily start recording or take snapshots of the stream and save it to a file.
• RadSparkline - mainly used to outline trends, also flexible in terms of data points generation and can contain from just a few points, to as many as thousands of data points, characterized with excellent performance.
• RadBreadCrumb - significantly improved elements hierarchy and introduced a richer set of functionalities.
• File Dialogs - integrated the new RadBreadCrumb. With its powerful data-binding mechanism, the control lets you display hierarchical structures, such as directories and relational data. With its auto-complete functionality and other advanced capabilities, RadBreadCrumb significantly improves the navigation and performance of your application.
• File Dialogs - Custom Places can now be defined on the left side of the Explorer Control’s main pane. It is also possible to add multiple custom places like favorites and libraries nodes.
• File Dialogs - introduced Environment Variables, providing out of the box support for the most common system environment variables that refer to well-known directories in the Windows file system, as well as to any user defined variables.
• RadRichTextEditor - similar to MS Word, RadRichTextEditor now introduces different options for pasting: keep formatting, merge formatting, use destination styles. When you paste text into the document, a Paste Options menu will pop up allowing you to decide whether to preserve the look of the original text or change the formatting.
