Key Features

Complete Set Of Charting Types
AJAX Support for Web Forms
Powerful Extensions
Unique Rendering System
Consistent Model
Extensive Documentation and Examples

Nevron Chart for .NET Q3 2007 introduces:

Improved AJAX Support for Web Forms (VS 2005 Specific)

Improved browser compatibility.
Extended client side JavaScript class interfaces.
The Nevron Instant Callback technology was added as an alternative to the MS AJAX Callback, which greatly improves the performance of the web controls.
Configurable event queuing at client side makes mixing of mouse move, mouse click events and auto refresh possible and native to the web site visitors.
Improved behavior of the web controls on communication breakdown; a wait message is displayed and the server is queried periodically for availability; when the connection with the server is reestablished, the web controls continue normal operation.

Improved Web Controls in Postback Mode (VS 2005 Specific)

HttpHandler image generation was added as an alternative to the traditional temporary image files used by Nevron web components. Now Nevron web components register an *.AXD virtual file in web.config and stream on demand images to the client through it.

New Charting Types

Kagi is a type of financial chart that illustrates the forces of supply and demand on a security. It is focused on price action and disregards the passage of time.
Renko is a type of financial chart that is very effective for traders to identify key support and resistance levels. It filters minor price movements and emphasizes on general trends.
Point and Figure - Point and Figure is a type of financial chart that is designed to filter non-significant price changes and to focus on the main price trends. Point and Figure charts are usually used for longer term price movements.
Three Line Break is a price change financial chart that is similar in concept to Kagi, Renko and Point and Figure.

Ability to Drag Gauge Indicators

Added is the ability to drag gauge indicators with the mouse as well as to protect gauge indicators from dragging. You can also use the new Value Snapping to snap gauge indicators to certain values when dragging.

Improved Performance

The chart axis zoning and calculation is optimized. The conversion from logical to scale units and vice versa is optimized.

Improved Value Snapping

All objects that reference an axis value can now snap in variety of ways including: snap to major ticks, snap to minor ticks, numeric snapping (based on an origin value and step), date time snapping (based on an origin date and date/time step) and ruler min max snapping.

Improved Data Zooming

You can now set how the axis scrollbar treats the reset button – by resetting the axis view range to it’s default state or by reverting the state to the last valid zoom in operation thus enabling you to perform better data drilldown.

Ability to export images in EMF file format

The component can save images in EMF file format as well as to copy EMF images to the clipboard.

Nevron Diagram for .NET is a fully managed, extensible and powerful diagramming framework, which can help you create feature rich diagramming solutions in WinForms and WebForms. The product is built on top of the Nevron Presentation Framework and thus provides you with advanced capabilities for stunning visual impact, which you will not find in any other product - including commercial standalone diagramming applications. Nevron Diagram for .NET has been carefully designed to meet a vast amount of customization requests.

Data Binding with Custom Data Sources
The chart now supports data binding with custom data sources that implement the IBindingList and (optionally) the ITypedList interfaces.

Gauges for .NET
The component introduces new linear and radial gauge panels allowing you to display virtually any linear or radial gauge. Gauge features include multiple indicators, multiple gauge axes, intelligent gauge scale decorations and many more. The gauges in Nevron Chart for .NET use extensively the Nevron Smart Shape technology as well as the Nevron Scale technology.

Q2 2007 introduces:

Gallery Panel
The NGalleryPanel is an item-container control which mimics the Microsoft® Office 2007 galleries. 4 different types of item layout are provided so that the panel may be used as an extended list-box or list-view. Based on the Nevron generic UI element, the NGalleryItem component is highly customizable in each aspect of visual representation, including rich texts, alpha-blended images, custom item size, etc.

ListView
The NListView extends the standard Windows Forms ListView control and adds missing features like complete control over header and header items, alternating rows, column sorting, sorted column glyph, sorted column shading, custom scrollbars, etc.

Rotator
The NRotator is a very useful control which brings the popular "Rotator" feature from ASP.NET to your Windows Forms. The control contains a collection of frames where each frame is described by a generic UI element providing complete control over visual appearance, image and text. The well-designed set of properties will enable you with fine-tune control over frame duration, animation speed, animation direction plus much more.

Command Bars – ImageTextRelation
Provides complete control over the image and text entities of an NCommand object by specifying the ImageTextRelation property of its parent.

Task Dialog - Radio Buttons
The NTaskDialog is further extended and now it supports a set of radio-buttons for richer user experience. The radio buttons are layouted just below the Content section of the dialog.

Docking Panels - Sizing Restrictions
Nevron Docking Panels are now enabled with sizing restrictions in floating state. You may alter the MinimumSize, MaximumSize and Sizable properties of a floating container directly.

Docking Panels - Visual Tab Navigation
Nevron Docking Panels are the only Docking Library which enables you with the advanced CTRL+TAB visual navigation found in Microsoft® Visual Studio 2005. Pressing Ctrl+Tab will display a NPopup containing two gallery panels - one containing all active docking panels and one containing all active documents. Optionally this feature may be turned on and off via the VisualTabNavigation property of an NDockManager. You may also change the shortcut which triggers the pop-up.

Navigation Pane - Expand/Collapse
The NNavigationPane is extended with the Collapse/Expand feature found in Microsoft® Office 2007. By clicking the button on the caption of the pane you toggle its state. When the pane is collapsed you may display the currently active band by clicking in the area below the caption and above the buttons stack.
