Nevron .NET Vision Q3 2008 is available for download. The new major release of Nevron .NET Vision introduces Diagram Maps, Tree/Graph data import, new Charting types, advanced Chart axis features, many ASP.NET AJAX improvements and much more.

What’s new in .NET Vision Q3 2008 Release:

Mixing 2D and 3D charting types in one chart control

Each chart panel now supports the Enable3D property allowing you to dynamically switch the chart rendering from 2D to 3D and vice versa. This feature allows mixing of 2D and 3D charts in a single chart control.
Axis Ruler Caps

Axis rulers can now be decorated with begin and end cap style allowing the visualization of scientifically looking charts. Additional features include the ability to break the ruler painting if it crosses a scale break, increasing chart readability.
Custom Value and Range Labels

You can now add custom value or range labels. This feature can be very useful when you have to explicitly denote values or ranges on the scale. Value and range labels come up with a variety of customization options including controllable visibility and tick style as well as the ability to mix the automatic labels with the custom ones in one scale level.
Hierarchical Scales

This is a new type of scale configurator utilizing the range labels feature in order to create scales with hierarchical (tree) structure. This type of scale is widely used when you have to display grouped categorical data.
Value and Range Timeline Scales

Timeline configurators allow you to configure a scale to display date/time information by decorating the scale using several date/time units. By doing this the scale becomes more informative to the end user as it allows him/her to view important date/time events that happen inside the date/time range displayed by the scale.
XML Formatted Text Improvements

The XML formatted text specification has been extended to support the shape tags allowing you to insert shapes with controllable fill, stroke and shadow in any text displayed by the component.
Automatic Walls Visibility

The walls of the chart when working in 3D mode can dynamically change their visibility depending on the user viewpoint so that they do not obscure the chart content. This feature is very useful when you want to give the user the ability to look at a chart from a different angle and want to ensure that the chart content remains completely visible.
Automatic Axis Position

The axes of the chart when working in 3D mode can dynamically choose a dock zone depending on the user viewpoint so that they do not obscure the chart content.
Pie Chart Improvements

The pie chart series can now render pies with the following new shapes Ring, Smooth Edge Ring and Cut Edge Ring.
Range Sliders

The axis scrollbar is extended to support range sliders thus allowing the user to change the visible axis range with the mouse.
Polar Chart Improvements

The Polar chart has been improved to support docking of angle axis on the outer rim of the polar chart as well as docking of value axes to the sides of the polar. Value axis support reflection painting, which allows for better readability of polar charts. A new scale configurator has been added to address the specifics of dynamic angle step calculation and decoration. In addition polar charts now support line, area and point series.
Radar Chart Improvements

The Radar chart has been extended to support scaling of multi dimensional data.
Light Model Improvements

The light model now allows for easier configuration of point, spot and directional light sources. The position of each light source can be in model or camera space. Several new lighting schemes are added to the predefined light schemes supported by the component.
Compatible with IIS7

Nevron Chart now meets the new requirements of IIS7 and can be safely deployed to IIS7 servers.
Dynamic Image Size

In AJAX mode the Nevron web controls can be resized dynamically through asynchronous requests.
Image map with Instant Callback

Because the Nevron Instant Callback cannot read result data from the server when a request completes, the client side image map cannot be update dynamically. There are cases, though, such as toolbars or other navigation elements, when an image map is required but it does not change over time. Now the Nevron web controls generate an initial image map also when using Instant Callbacks, extending the range of cases, when Instant Callbacks can be used to optimize the application performance.
Nevron JavaScript Library Optimization

The JavaScript files that are loaded by the Nevron web controls at the client are extensively optimized in size, which speeds up the initial parsing of the code, saves traffic and reduces the file transfer time.
Nevron JavaScript Library Documentation

Full code reference is available for the client side JavaScript library that is used to enable AJAX for the Nevron web controls. The reference allows Nevron clients to extend the Nevron JavaScript Library and to empower their scripts by the rich functionality that this library offers.
Nevron JavaScript Library Extensibility

The Nevron JavaScript Library comes with full code reference and can be used for custom JavaScript development. Custom commands and tools can be implemented to extend the built-in functionality.
Extended JavaScript Diagnostics Capabilities

The Nevron JavaScript Library provides a rich set of diagnostic utilities for developers.

Map Import

Full featured import of ESRI shape files with support for the following types of projections:
Aitoff, Bonne, Lambert, Behrmann, Tristan, Edwards, Peters, Gall, Balthasart, EckertIV, EckertVI, Equirectangular, Hammer, Kavrayskiy VII, Mercator, MillerCylindrical, Mollweide, Orthographic, Robinson, Stereographic, Van Der Grinten, Wagner VI and Winkel Tripel. The ESRI import can easily be extended to include custom data formatting. For the purpose of displaying maps in diagrams, layers have been extended to support conditional visibility based on the zoom factor. When maps are imported in multiple layers you can define the zoom range in which each particular layer is visible. This helps you implement maps, which support zoom based level-of-detail. For the purpose of maps the NPointElement has been extended to support text. This helps you display geo points as labeled point shapes, which are independent of the zoom factor.
Data Import

Support for automatic import of tree and graph data structures from tabular data sources. The new data import feature supports the following data sources: DataTable, DataView, OleDbDataAdapter, SqlDataAdapter, OdbcDataAdapter, OleDbCommand, SqlCommand, OdbcCommand. The data import provides you with the ability to control the data records information shown for each record.
DOM Improvements

We have added the NSegmentLabel, which gives you the ability to anchor text to a predefined or custom model segment. The NSegmentLabel can be instructed to keep text upward orientation as well as to follow the segment orientation. Shapes now have the SizeToText method, which attempts to size the shape to the primary (default) label size. The NDrawingDocument has been extended to provide the MeasureStringInWorld and MeasureStringInScene methods.
New Predefined Shapes

In this release we have added new shapes in the following shape factories:
- Symbol shapes - 7 new shapes
- Food shapes - 11 new shapes
- Brainstorming shapes - 18 new shapes
Layouts Improvements

All graph layouts have been revised to support self loops and bi-links. With this improvements the Nevron Diagram layouts engine is now capable of arranging any type of graph. The compact depth and layered tree layouts have been improved to support plug spacing.
Windows Forms Improvements

Following is a list of the new behavior improvements of WinForm views:
- Shift modifies the resize behavior of side handles - when pressed aspect ratio is preserved.
- Shift modifies the resize behavior of corner handles - when pressed aspect ratio is broken.
- We have added support for auto scrolling when the dragged object area hits the window scroll margins.
- We have added the NMouseWheelScrollAndZoomTool. By default the mouse wheel scrolls the drawing view horizontally. When Shift is pressed the view is scrolled vertically. When Control is pressed the view is zoomed in or out. Click the middle mouse button to activate anchor scrolling (similar to MS Internet Explorer, MS Visual Studio, MS Visio etc.).
- We have added the NLibraryWheelScrollTool - it is similar to the NMouseWheelScrollAndZoomTool, but does not support zooming (since library views cannot be zoomed).
Compatible with IIS7

Nevron Diagram now meets the new requirements of IIS7 and can be safely deployed to IIS7 servers.
Dynamic Image Size

In AJAX mode the Nevron web controls can be resized dynamically through asynchronous requests.
Image map with Instant Callback

Because the Nevron Instant Callback cannot read result data from the server when a request completes, the client side image map cannot be update dynamically.

Paint Effects

All content panels now support a paint effect that emulates the reflection of glass or gel cap over the panel content. This feature allows for the creation of more visually appealing gauges and charts.

Automatic Jittering

In WinForms applications using 3D charts the control can automatically detect a period of inactivity between chart refresh calls and use it to antialias the 3D scene. This greatly improves the visual appearance of 3D charts as jagged edges are removed at minimal performance cost.
Redesigned Examples

All examples of the components have been redesigned in order to take advantage of the improvements in styling, borders, paint effects and layout.
Improved Documentation

The documentation of the component has been improved in order to be more user friendly.

Improved Layouts

The following layouts were significantly improved:

The dynamic image map allows client side filtering of mouse events and prevents unnecessary callbacks for server side hit testing.
Controller-Tools Architecture in AJAX mode

Controller and tools are added to the Nevron client side JavaScript framework. All mouse events are now processed by the controller, which allows for implementing complex mouse handling logic and combining callback event processing with pure client side event processing.
New AJAX tools

Based on the controller-tools architecture, the following tools were added: - Click, double click, mouse down, mouse up, mouse move, mouse over and mouse out callback tools – intercept the mouse events and route them to the server for processing; - Dynamic cursor tool– changes the mouse cursor over interactive visual elements; - Redirect tool– redirects the browser to a specified URL when interactive visual elements are clicked; - Tooltip tool– displays tooltips over interactive visual elements.
Print Manager for Web Forms

None of the most popular web browsers is capable of printing really large images. Nevron .NET Vision Q1 2008 introduces a new HTTP handler that generates HTML, suitable for printing.

Support for inward–outward port connections

In this release we have implemented support for inward-outward ports. This feature lets you interactively glue an outward port to inward port. When an outward port of a shape is connected to an inward port, the shape will translate and rotate together with the shape owning the inward port. The translation aims to match the outward port location to the inward port location. The rotation aims to match both ports direction angles. For each type of port we have provided an extensive set of predefined modes in which a port can automatically determine its direction angle. Custom (user specified) direction angles are supported by all ports. This feature is extremely useful for interactive construction of connected shapes structures without edges. For example: in a floor plan diagram you can have a table with 4 inwards ports designated for the possible places where chairs can be placed. Chairs can have a single outward port. The placement of the chairs around the table is then a matter of simple drag and drop – Nevron Diagram will perform the snapping and glueing of the chairs to the table for you. When you move, rotate or resize the table the chairs will stay on their places.
Powerful support for graph, tree and cells layouts

In this release we have added enterprise quality support for automatic layouts. The layouts are generally grouped in the following categories:

Graph Layouts – perform automatic arrangement of graph vertices and edges. Included the following layouts:
- Force Directed Layouts - barycenter, spring and symmetrical. The implementation provides supports for lots of supplemental data provided on per edge and vertex basis. It addresses issues like magnetic fields, gravity force and vertex overlapping. The performance is significantly optimized due to the use of local temperatures. The overall quality of drawing is also improved because of the used global cooling method. It is suitable for any type of graph. Produces straight line graph drawings.
- Layered Graph Layout – represents a classical implementation, which layouts a graph in layers. The layout addresses issues like crossing and bending minimization. It is suitable for any type of graph. Produces polyline graph drawings.
- Orthogonal Graph Layout – represents a layout, which draws a graph only with horizontal or vertical line segments. The layout addresses issues like crossing minimization, bends minimization and overall compactness of the drawing. It is suitable for any type of graph. Produces orthogonal graph drawings.
- Radial Graph Layout - represents a layout, which draws a graph in radial circles. It is suitable for any type of graph. Produces straight line graph drawings.
Tree Layouts – perform automatic arrangement of tree vertices and edges
- Layered Tree Layout – layouts a tree in layers. The layout addresses the breadth compaction of the drawing. Produces straight line and orthogonal tree drawings. Compact Depth Tree Layout – layouts a tree with minimal depth. The layout also addresses the breadth compaction of the drawing. Produces straight line and orthogonal tree drawings.
- Compact Depth Tree Layout – layouts a tree with minimal depth. The layout also addresses the breadth compaction of the drawing. Produces straight line and orthogonal tree drawings.
- Tip Over Tree Layout - layouts a tree by placing children in either a row or a col. The row column children placement is controlled on a per vertex basis. Addresses the overall compaction of the drawing. Produces orthogonal tree drawings.
- Balloon Tree Layout – layouts the tree in by placing the vertex children in a circular fashion. Addresses the overall compaction of the drawing. Produces straight line tree drawings.
Cell Layouts – perform automatic arrangement of the vertices of a graph
- Stack Layout - represents a directed constrained cells layout, which stacks the cells in horizontal or vertical order. Depending on the layout direction the layout is constrained by either width or height.
- Flow Layout - represents a directed constrained cells layout, which arranges the cells in horizontal or vertical lanes.
- Dock Layout – represents space eating cells layout, which places vertices at per-vertex specified docking areas of the currently available layout area. Table Layout - represents a directed constrained cells layout, which arranges cells in a tabular manner.

Dynamic image map in AJAX mode

In Q1 2008 Nevron web components now support a dynamic image map that can be automatically updated at the client on every callback. The developer has control over when the image map is generated when is and updated on the client. The dynamic image map allows client side filtering of mouse events and prevents unnecessary callbacks for server side hit testing.
Controller-Tools Architecture in AJAX mode

Controller and tools are added to the Nevron client side JavaScript framework. All mouse events are now processed by the controller, which allows for implementing complex mouse handling logic and combining callback event processing with pure client side event processing.
New AJAX tools

Based on the controller-tools architecture, the following tools were added: - Click, double click, mouse down, mouse up, mouse move, mouse over and mouse out callback tools – intercept the mouse events and route them to the server for processing; - Dynamic cursor tool– changes the mouse cursor over interactive visual elements; - Redirect tool– redirects the browser to a specified URL when interactive visual elements are clicked; - Tooltip tool– displays tooltips over interactive visual elements.

Mar 29, 2007 - Nevron .NET Vision Q4 2006 Released

Nevron is pleased to announce the long awaited release of the new .NET Vision Suite version Q4 2006. The new version introduces brand new Axes Model, featuring better axis positioning, improved paging and scrolling, superb Date-Time Support, extended DateTimePicker, Vista-like TaskDialog, Hyperlinks per element basis, Localization and many more.

The ultimate .NET component suite for creating unique and powerful data presentation applications with spectacular data visualization capabilities. Flexible and extensible, it delivers powerful Charting, Diagramming and User Interface components for Windows Forms and ASP.NET with rich functionality and exceptional features.

What’s new in .NET Vision Q4 2006 Release:

Redesigned Scale Model

The Axes of Nevron Chart now employ a declarative scale model to describe the axis scale, scale decorations and wall decorations. This is combined with a powerful set of scale configurators that can be used to describe and extend any type of scale. Following is a list of the major advantages of this model:
- Label Fitting - the scale can now automatically detect and resolve label overlapping - this is implemented in both 2D and 3D.
- Better Date Time Support - you can now specify non-regular time units (e.g. units that cannot be expressed through milliseconds and are dependent on some reference date). The month, quarter and year are example of such units.
- Distance Based Scale Decoration - this is the ability to control the distance between scale decorations (ticks, labels etc) depending on the scale size in device units - this feature automatically reduces / increases the number of ticks and labels on the scale depending on the size of the chart. Smaller charts will be less decorated which improves the chart readability.
- Interlace and Sampled Stripes - this feature allow you to dynamically highlight ranges of data on the chart.
- Scale Sections - Scale sections allow you to alter the appearance of different scale elements if they fall in a specified range. This allows you to visually highlight important ranges of data that the user has to pay special attention to.
- Custom scale programming - you can now modify the standard defined axis scales in any way you see fit or create custom ones.
Redesigned Axis Positioning

The Axes in Nevron Chart now use anchors to attach to different places in the chart. There are two types of anchors - Dock and Cross anchors.
Dock anchors allow you to dock the axis to one of the 12 edges of a 3D cube. Each edge is called a zone. This type of docking allows you to stack axes on the sides of the chart without overlapping.
Cross axis anchors allow you to position the axes to cross another axis either at a certain value or at a percentage of the crossed axis length.
Improved Axis Paging

The component has improved axis paging supporting both numeric and date time data. This is integrated with automatic scrolling and automatic small step scroll size calculation.
Better Scalability

The Series in the component were extended to support the NLength format. As a result you can now specify for each series how the size that is not scaled on the axes should be treated. For example you can have a point series with data points 10px wide and tall or 10 percent wide and tall from the chart area. In the first case points will have the same size as the chart resizes, whereas in the second they will follow the dimensions of the chart.
Guidelines

Guidelines allow you to align panels (charts, legends, titles etc.) either vertically or horizontally. This feature is very useful when you create multiple charts.

Planned Improvements
Although in this release there are no major changes in the diagram, there are huge improvements, which Nevron is currently developing for this component. Since they are beyond the scope of a single quarterly release, they will be embedded in the diagram when completely tested and implemented.

New Layouts

Graph Layouts

Layered graph layout - hierarchically arranges graphs.
Barycenter graph layout - implements the barycenter layout method.
Spring layout - classical layout, which simulates spring and electrical forces. Different coefficients (spring stiffness, length, electrical charge) will be specifiable on a per object basis.
Symmetrical layout - implementation of the Fruchertman and Reingold force model. Tries to achieve a symmetrical drawing in which the edges are equal in length.
Custom force directed layout - lets you define your own set of forces, or use the currently provided forces.

Common for all force directed layouts are the following constrain forces:

Magnetic field force - impose an orientation of the edges. Magnetic fields can be combined. Supported are parallel, Polar and Concentric magnetic fields. Edge magnetization (bidirectional or unidirectional) can be specified on a per edge basis.
Bounce back force - tries to additionally push overlapping vertices apart.

Tree Layouts

Layered tree layout - layouts the tree in layers. Tries to improve the breadth tree size.
Compact tree layout - layouts the tree by improving both the breadth and depth tree sizes. Does not obey to layering in order to achieve compact tree drawing.
Tip-over tree layout - layouts the parent children horizontally or vertically. The parent children arrangement is specified on a per parent basis.
Radial tree layout - layouts the tree layers in concentric circles.

Localization

The NLocalizationManager provides simple yet elegant solution for localizing Nevron's internal strings. It contains a user-definable dictionary which is used whenever a translation request is made. You may also explicitly disable the manager if no more modifications are allowed.
Extended Entry Controls

The "Entry Control" logic has been greatly extended. Instead of creating entry wrapper for every single control in the library you may simply drop a NEntryContainer instance on a Form and specify its EntryControl property. This enables you have virtually any control wrapped, not only the ones that ship with Nevron User Interface. Additional settings like FillBoundingBox, Interactive and LabelControlRelation provide fine tune support for creating visually appealing entry forms.
Palette Color Pane

The NPaletteColorPane represents a color pane which color entries are palette-defined. Two predefined palettes are provided - Office2003 and Default.
Hyper Links

Nevron Rich Text support has been greatly improved and optimized. Available per UIElement basis is hyper-link support.
Date Time Picker

The NDateTimePicker component extends the standard System.Windows.Forms one with border and drop-down button appearance which makes it consistent with the overall look-and-feel of the Nevron User Interface components.
Task Dialog

The Nevron NTaskDialog is an extended user-input dialog. Inspired by the feature and content rich TaskDialogs in Microsoft Windows Vista, our NTaskDialog component will bring to your Windows Forms applications platform-independent Vista-like user experience.
Task Dialog - Properties

The dialog structure is mainly divided into four parts: content, buttons panel, verification check and footer. Based on Nevron Rendering Device all elements support rich text, hyper links and images.

Nov 14, 2006 - Nevron .NET Vision Q3 2006 Released

Nevron is pleased to announce the release of the new .NET Vision Q3 2006. Devoted to our mission to provide only the highest quality to our customers, we have further improved this product, making it one of the most comprehensive suites for the .NET developer. Flexible and extensible, it delivers powerful controls, rich functionality and exceptional features, bringing significant technological advantage to your applications.

Document - View - Controller Architecture

The chart is now a fully Document - View - Controller architecture driven component, allowing you to selectively store / load chart document state, replace the current chart document visualized by the chart control or display a single chart document in a number of chart controls.
Support for Multithreading

The chart document has two functions called Lock and Unlock that allow you to lock the document from painting while feeding data. This is very useful when you want to feed data to the chart coming from a thread in a thread safe manner.
New Charting Types

Stacked Floating Bar - You can stack Bar series over Float Bar series to construct Stacked Floating Bar charts. XY and XYZ scatters are also supported. This charting type is available both in 2D and 3D.
New 2D Rendering Device

The chart has a new 2D rendering device with improved speed and 2D image quality performance. You should see increased quality in text visualization and stroke rendering with applied shadow effect. Special care has been taken to properly render antialiased texts when ClearType rendering is enabled on the system. XML formatted text rendering with bullets is also significantly improved.
Background Decorator

Background decorators are a special type of panel allowing you to embed background style rendering on a per panel basis. This allows the creation of very attractive presentation quality charts.

New Shapes

Simple Network Shapes

Tailored to meat the requirements of the developers, which want to display large network diagrams, which need a low level of detail for the individual network particles.
Electrical Symbols Shapes

Added were many electrical symbols shapes, which will facilitate the display of simple and complex electrical schemes.
Floor Plan Shapes

These shapes target the users, which need to display floor plans. The floor plan shapes are defined in their actual size.
Country Flags shapes

General purpose shapes, which represent country flags.

Integration with Nevron Geometry
Nevron Diagram for .NET has been integrated with the new geometry objects in the Nevron Presentation Framework. This change was made due to needed performance optimizations in the implementation of these fundamental structures and because their current implementation in the .NET framework lacks many important features and properties. One of the major advantages of using the new geometry structures is that the diagram is now better serialized in XML.

Entry Box

The NEntryBox component is a composition of two controls - NRichTextLabel and NTextBox - which work as one entity providing the user with easy-to-use and professional-looking text entry control. The component also provides interactivity features giving the user visual cues like hover and focus.
Desktop Toolbar

Nevron User Interface gives you the ability to add the "Desktop Toolbar" functionality to your Windows Forms Applications. When Docked to any edge of the Desktop the Form will behave in much the same way as the Windows Taskbar - it will reserve desktop space, other windows will not overlap it, etc. The user may also detach the Form and it will behave like a standard .NET Form.
Extended Tooltip

Our NTooltip component allows you to display rich text tooltips with ease. Completely customizable our tooltip will bring to you the latest Office 2007 standards and appearance.
TrackBar

The NTrackBar is a modern and extended replacement of the standard System.Windows.Forms TrackBar control. Based on the NShadowDecorator component the control simply hosts a generic Nevron.UI.NTrackBarElement and redirects the user input to it. Being completely custom our NTrackBar allows for settings being unavailable in the standard one - thumb size, tick height, padding, action mouse button, etc. The control uses the default colors provided by its palette but you may completely change its fill, stroke and shadow information.
Popup Notify

Inspired from the pop notifications available in the MS Office 2003 and MS Messenger our NPopupNotify component enables you to display notifications in much the same manner. Our component is the only one on the market which takes into consideration the edge at which the system TaskBar is docked and properly calculates its location and animation. Opacity, animation effects, custom shapes, rich text context, "Options" caption button, etc. - all are freely customizable either at run or design-time.
Skinned ScrollBars

Being actually window styles rather than separate components the standard scrollbars of controls like tree-view, list-box, etc. are painted internally by the system and are very hard to customize. Nevron User Interface completely extends these internal scrollbars and makes the overall look-and-feel of those controls more consistent and professional.
Docking Panels - Sticky Floating Frames

The so called "Sticky Windows" - a dragged window will "stick" to some other logical area - is a very nice and useful feature now available in the Nevron Docking Panels. You have complete control over this behavior - things like whether or not to use sticky windows, sticky area inflate, stick to main form, stick to working area, etc. are all easily customized either at run or design-time. This feature is also available for the document frames when the document view is MdiStandart.
Docking Panels

MDI Custom Frames - The frames which host UI documents when the document view is MdiStandard are now synchronized with the global template provided by the UI manager.
UIPanel

Our NUIPanel is a modern replacement of the standard System.Windows.Forms panel. The component provides extended border support as well as customized scrollbars.

Nevron .NET Vision combines Nevron Chart for .NET, Diagram for .NET and User Interface for .NET which are available in Different Editions to meet your specific needs.

Line Studies

Line Studies are lines and various geometric figures that are plotted in price charts or in indicator charts. They are used as analytical instruments helping to define channels, support and resistance levels, trend changes and to forecast price dynamics. Line studies supported by Nevron Chart for .NET - Fibonacci Arcs, Fibonacci Fans, Fibonacci Retracements, Quadrant Lines, Speed Resistance Lines and Trendline.
Funnel - Standard and Advanced 2D and 3D Funnels

- Advanced 2D and 3D Funnel
Custom X sizes of the funnel data items. Use the controls to modify the funnel radius and gap size. You can also change the placement of the funnel data point labels.
Box and Whiskers

Box and whiskers plots are very helpful in interpreting the distribution of data. Each box and whiskers item represents a set of values and displays statistical information for it like minimum, maximum and median values, upper and lower quartiles, outliers and optionally a mean value.

Standard Box and Whiskers

DateTime Box and Whiskers

Point Chart and Box Plot

New features and functionality

Support for ASP.NET - WebForm views
Shape factories, which can help you easily create any predefined shape. Added were more than 180 predefined shapes. All of them are nicely grouped in thematic shape factories.
Support for stylesheets, which greatly minimize the effort needed to apply consistent styling to your diagrams.
Many graph and tree related algorithms (graph and tree traversal, spanning trees, checks for cyclic, connected graph etc.).
Support for circular arc primitives.

Improvements in the DOM

You can now instantly convert any 2D shape to 1D shape and vice versa. Plugs are automatically created/destroyed.
Elements now store most of their properties in property bags, which minimizes the memory footprint of the diagram.
The shape labels, ports and control point collections are now optional. You can create and destroy them as you see fit. In this way the diagram can further be lightened.
The way in which elliptical arcs are defined and edited was improved.
Graph management was decoupled from shapes. You can now specify on a per shape basis whether you want a shape to be treated as a logical graph part.
Groups are now much easily created - just add the shapes in their shapes collection.
Composite shapes are now much easily created - just add the primitives in their primitives collection.
The composition and decomposition now preserves the local style formatting.
Support for primitive shapes. These are shapes, which aggregate a single primitive model and whose behavior is influenced by the primitive they aggregate - for example rectangle shape, ellipse shape, polygon shape etc.
Support for form preservation of 1D primitive shapes, when you modify their start and end points.
Support for 22 different modes in which aggregate models can scale models they aggregate (for example the way in which shapes are resized in groups). The most commonly used are CartesianScaleAndReposition, RepositionOnly and AffineScale.
Support for element abilities and protection.
Several new batches. Most of the operations, which views and commands perform with document content go through batches.

Improvements in the WinForm views

You can now globally specify what types of trackers must be created for the selected shapes (for example disable the creation of pin point trackers)
You can specify whether reflexive and partially disconnected connectors should be created

Performance optimizations

Optimized initialization performance of documents.
Optimized update performance of documents.
Optimized rendering speed (especially of stroke elements with image filter shadows).
Optimized hit test speed.
Optimized masters image generation.

Custom Forms

One of the most unique features of our User Interface Library is the ability display forms with custom non-client metrics and painting. Overcome the limitations of the system default frames and create your own ones. Specify global or local templates or use the embedded modern ones including the famous "Vista Slate" and "Vista Royal". Being completely custom our Forms allow you to specify additional caption buttons, specify their appearance and track their click events. Using complex render logic our forms look smooth, professional and will certainly give your applications out-of-the-box appearance.
Rich Text label

Enter the next-generation presentation layer by experiencing our NRichTextLabel component. Ever been impressed from the way you may format texts in HTML and *.rtf files? Our label will allow you to do this in exactly the same way and will definitely give your applications distinguished appearance. The control is a combination of NShadowDecorator, NUIItem and NTextDocument instances which allow you to modify both the filling, border and shadow information and text, image, alignments, etc.
Font Combo And Font List

Base on the NComboBox and NListBox respectively these two controls will displays all installed fonts in a stylish and professional way. Three different modes are supplied: Name, NameInFont and NameAndSample.
Navigation Pane

Experience professional and visually appealing custom control identical with the navigation bar found in Microsoft Outlook 2003. Our NNavigationPane is an excellent component which not only gives your applications an advanced navigation feature but provides you with the smooth, pixel-perfect appearance of Office 2003. Complete design-time support is provided making the creation of complex hierarchies of user interface components a snap.
Decorators

Based on the generic Decorator design-pattern our Decorators are extremely useful controls enabling you not only to experience all of the predefined components that ship with the library but to create and decorate your own custom ones with ease. Modern effects like Glass, Gel and Vista are a piece of cake to produce with our decorators. And yet another unique feature is the support for shadow - either solid or linear blur. All fill, stroke and shadow information is grouped by objects so that you can customize the look-and-feel of your application using only the Windows Forms Designer.
Extended Group Box

Based on the NShadowDecorator control our extended group box demonstrates the capabilities of our Decorators. The component extends the plain appearance of the standard group box and adds pleasant look-and-feel and lots of customization features.
Grouper

Based on the NShadowDecorator control our NGrouper component will enable you to group your controls in a visually appealing manner. The control comes with a "Header" and "Footer" UI elements allowing for emphasizing on the meaning of the group.
Expanders

Inspired from the excellent Windows XP Explorer Bar Nevron NExpander control brings to you the same functionality including even the smooth collapse/expand animation effect. The control is completely customizable in each aspect of visual representation, animation properties and functionality.
Explorer Bar

Based on the core NExpander component our NExplorerBar brings to you the look-and-feel of the Windows XP Shell Explorer. Our component is the only one on the market which implements the smooth animation effects available in the original Explorer Bar. A custom auto-scroll behavior is provided and the user can easily navigate to the hidden expanders.
Image Animation

Our UI suite provides you with the ability to apply standard animations like fade, slide, scroll, etc. upon bitmaps. A unique Animator - Surface model is used allowing for comprehensive and straight forward animation processing. A basic implementation of the INImageAnimationSurface interface is supplied with the library.
Command Bars

Extended Image Support - Now our command bars provide you complete control over the image per command instance. Specify alpha value, source rectangle, size mode and more to achieve the desired effect.
