What's New R3 2022

New Xamarin DataGrid Feature: Aggregates

The Xamarin Data Grid control is now upgraded with Aggregates support. It allows you to display aggregate information for the data in a column footer or in a group header/footer by adding a single property. Take advantage of the built-in support for the most popular aggregate functions: Average, Count, Sum, Min, Max and Count. If you need to accommodate more complex scenarios, you have the option to create custom aggregate functions as well.

See the Xamarin Data Grid docs: Aggregates

New Xamarin DataGrid Feature: Column and Group Footers

With R3 2022, the Xamarin DataGrid control also gets new Column Footers and Group Footers functionality. Now you can display individual footer cells for each column that contain additional information about the column. We’ve also added the option to render a group footer and easily display group summaries. Footers are type object, so you are not limited to just using plain text.

See the Xamarin Data Grid docs: Footers

New Xamarin Pickers Feature: IsLooping Property

With this new feature, you can easily stop the looping functionality in the Date, Time, DateTime, Time and TimeSpan Pickers for Xamarin using just a single property—IsLooping. This feature is enabled by default, which means that the items of each spinner can loop infinitely unless that spinner is restricted to showing only a subset of the available values.

See the Xamarin DatePicker docs: IsLooping

New WordsProcessing Features: Page Numbering Fields & Shapes Support

With R3 2022, we’ve released new features across all Document Processing Libraries to support you better navigate your document formats. The new WordsProcessing features you can use are page numbering fields and shapes support. While field codes have been supported, now we’ve added functionality that allows you to update the PAGE, PAGEREF, NUMPAGES and SECTIONPAGES fields and easily calculate their result—Page Numbering fields.

The Shapes support feature allows you to easily insert or interact with existing shapes like circles, boxes, arrows and many others directly in your documents. You can style the inserted shapes by using gradient fills and various pattern outlines, as well as change the size of the shapes and rotate them. 

See the Document Processing LIbraries (DPL) docs for WordsProcessing Page Numbering Fields

See the DPL docs for WordsProcessing Shapes support

New PdfProcessing features: Signature Flags Support & Export PDF Pages to Images

With the new PdfProcessing Signatureflags support functionality, you can specify that there is a signature even if the signature itself does not have a visual representation. With R3 2022, we’ve also added the ability to convert the pages of a .pdf document to images. Export PDF pages to images will work with the .NET Standard version and does not depend on any Windows libraries.

New SpreadProcessing Feature: Repeat Specific Rows or Columns on Every Printed Page

This new feature enables you to specify a row or a column that will be repeated on every printed page.  

See the docs for SpreadProcessing: Repeat specific rows or columns on every printed page

New SpreadStreamProcessing Feature: SpreadStreamProcessing Import

With R3 2022, we’ve added SpreadStreamProcessing import functionality. It allows you to read large XLSX or CSV files without loading the entire document in memory. This improves performance and the memory footprint compared to the RadSpreadProcessing library.
