Nevron User Interface Suite for .NET
What is new in version Q4 2007
NtreeList
The Q4 2007 release of Nevron User Interface for .NET introduces a powerful
new control named NTreeList. This control combines the functionality of a
tree-view and list-view and allows the display of tabular data with
hierarchical relations . Supported are features like data-binding,
multi-level grouping, sorting, clickable and resizable column and row
headers, best fitting for both nodes and columns, column header
drag-and-drop, etc. The control derives from the NTreeViewEx and inherits
its speed, memory optimization and instant painting. Each row in the
component is represented by an NTreeListNode which stores a collection of
NTreeListNodeSubItem instances. Each sub-item may be attached to a desired
column dynamically. Five predefined sub-items are provided:
NTreeListNodeStringSubItem - represents a node that displays simple text
NTreeListNodeImageSubItem - represents a node that displays a raster image
NTreeListNodeBooleanSubItem - represents a node that displays a Boolean
value in the form of a check-box
NTreeListNodeNumericSubItem - represents a node that displays a formatted
numeric value such as integer, float or double
NTreeListNodeDateTimeSubItem - represents a node that displays a formatted
date-time value
Complete set of appearance formatting properties are provides allowing you
to adjust the look-and-feel to your specific needs. Further more you may
plug custom renderers and achieve virtually any specific visual requirement.
NfileExplorer
The NFileExplorer is a predefined NTreeList which may be used to browse the
file system on the current machine. Each node is populated on demand, when
expanded. The control retrieves the images used by the system for each
drive, folder or file. An optional "Open file on activate" feature is
provided enabling you to use shell execute of the selected file (open the
file with the application associated with it).
Skinning - Individual Controls
The Nevron skinning support has been further improved and now you may assign
a local skin to each INSkinnableControl instance. This gives you the freedom
to combine different skins in one GUI layer.
ToolStrip Skin Renderer
An NToolStripSkinRenderer component is provided which allows you to make
your .NET 2.0 tool-strips use the Nevron Skinning Logic. The renderer is
applicable at either global or local level. It may be assigned different
local skins or inherit the global skin from the NSkinManager.
Masked TextBox
The NMaskedTextBox control is an override of the standard .NET 2.0
MaskedTextBox and extends its appearance to match the Nevron one.
NTreeViewEx - added sorting, filtering and searching functionality
The NTreeViewEx has been extended with new useful functionality. The control
can now be assigned a valid INFilter value which controls the visibility of
the nodes. If a node becomes hidden by a filter it continues to exist in its
parent collection but is no longer displayed. An NTreeNodeCollection can now
be sorted, optionally recursively (all nested collections will also be
sorted). A collection can be searched for specific nodes using filters
logic. Provided are the predefined FindByText and FindByName methods.
Gallery panel - system images
The NSystemImages helper class can now retrieve an image from the system's
cache. The NGalleryPanel provides two special methods that can be used to
load and display all the system images - either the small (16x16 pixels) or
the large (32x32 pixels) ones.
