Changes from the Previous Maintenance Release

  • Get merged cells - The GetMergeCell and GetMergeCells methods allow you to get a merged cell range (similar to GetSpanCell method which returns a spanned range).
  • Customize style of the focus rectangle border - The FocusRectangleBorderColor and FocusRectangleBorderStyle properties allow you to set the border color and style for the focus rectangle (when ShowFocusRectangle is True).
  • Customize grouping bar style - The FpSpread.DragColumnCssClass and GroupColumnHeaderCssClass properties allow you to set the style for group bar headers and transparent column headers (for display during a drag operation).
  • Allow more grouping flexibility - A user can cancel the grouping by dragging and dropping a column back from the group bar to the column headers,
  • and a user can swap the column on the group bar with a drag and drop.
  • Reset the sort order - With SheetView.ResetViewColumnIndexes and SheetView.ResetViewRowIndexes methods, you can reset (or re-initialize) the sort order of rows.
  • Option to import/export data only to/from Excel - Ability to import/export only cell's data. ExcelOpenFlags enumeration already has a ¡°DataOnly¡± parameter; now the ExcelSaveFlags enumeration has one too.
  • Conditional format a range of cells - Ability to set conditional format to a cell range.
  • New events on client-side scripting, onColumnDragMove and onColumnDragMoveCompleted, have been added.
  • New events on client-side scripting, onColWidthChanged and onRowHeightChanged, have been added.
  • The FixedPoint property has been added for currency, double, and percent cells to allow you to display placeholding zeros.
  • The MinimumValue and MaximumValue properties have been added to the percent cell type to allow you to set minimum and maximum values.

Award-Winning Success

winner of 2007 reader's choice award

Best Grid in 2007

FarPoint Spread for Windows Forms was honored with the Readers¡¯ Choice Award for ¡®Best Grid¡¯ from Visual Studio Magazine. The 2007 winners, which appeared in the June issue, are chosen by Visual Studio Magazine¡¯s readers and honor excellent software in 22 development categories.

Patrick Meader, Visual Studio Magazine editor in chief, said, "The Readers Choice Awards are special because it is an accolade from the person most qualified to say whether a product is great: the person who uses it. These aren¡¯t managers voting, but developers—developers who use these tools on a daily basis to simplify their lives and create better software at a lower price. As such, there is no better recommendation for the value of a given company¡¯s product. I commend all the Readers Choice Award winners. Visual Studio Magazine readers have put your product on top.¡±
