Reports - All Platforms
Barcode - Supports Function Control (FNC) symbols
Code-128 barcodes now support FNC1-4 symbols. FNC (Function Control) symbols provide additional information to the scanner. Use the following properties to specify a symbol (or set of symbols) in the barcode text:
- FNC1Substitute
- FNC2Substitute
- FNC3Substitute
- FNC4Substitute
Barcode - GS1 QRCode
The XRBarCode report control can now generate GS1 QR codes, which are variants of QR code symbols that comply with the GS1 specification, which is widely used in various industries such as retail, healthcare and logistics.
chart positioning
The Localization Editor in the Report Designer component allows you to localize the following chart elements/properties:
- title(legend, panel, series, constant row)
- small chart text
- empty chart text
- text note
- Legend text (bars, constant lines, indicators)
- Series Legend Text Pattern
- Bar axis label text
- custom legend
Click on the Property column header to modify the filter and select chart properties.
Chart bindable properties
Users can now easily set constant line values, bar axis values, chart titles, and other UI elements using expression bindings. This enhancement reduces the amount of code required to customize charts and simplifies the reporting process.
Carryover/Total Carryover
You can now calculate carryforward and accrual totals (useful in accounting), place XRLabel controls in repeating report bands (for example, group headers and footers with the RepeatEveryPage option enabled), and set the Summary property to is CarryoverSum.
SqlDataSource - configuration session
You can establish a SQL connection session before querying the database:
- Use ConnectionOptions to set the transaction isolation level of SqlDataSource, IsolationLevel property (use SqlQuery.IsolationLevel property for SQL query).
- Implement IDBCommandInterceptor or IDBConnectionInterceptor to intercept, modify and/or suppress MS SQL operations, this includes low-level database operations such as executing commands or setting key-value pairs in session context. You can store the value in the session context and perform any request after opening the connection.
Font substitution for PDF export engine
The PDF export engine now supports font substitution, if the font used in the report does not contain a glyph for a character, the PDF export engine will use the glyph from an alternate font (to display that character in the exported PDF file). The engine first looks for a font designed specifically for a fallback, and if a fallback isn't available, the engine looks for a font that's similar to the source font. End users will not lose text data when exporting reports to PDF, even if fonts are not installed on the destination computer.
Word Export (DOCX) - HTML-inspired text formatting support
XRLabel controls or XRCrossTab cells with HTML content ( AllowMarkupText ) are now exported to DOCX as text (in previous versions we exported HTML content as images), this enhancement allows users to edit labels and cell content.
XRPictureBox - EXIF orientation support
Support EXIF Orientation value in XRPictureBox report control, enable UseImageMetadata property to fix EXIF orientation when loading images, and automatically rotate images to make them vertical.
