New in VARCHART XNet 4.1 and VARCHART XTree 4.1

From Version 4.1 onwards of VARCHART XNet and VARCHART XTree developers will benefit from the .NET and ASP.NET editions as well as the proven from ActiveX edition. The removal of the intermediate layer (interoperability assembly) makes component integration much easier. The release is planned for July 2007.

What can the new version do? Amongst others: more diverse graphical user interface, more flexible identification keys for data sets and a help function in runtime dialogs.

Graphical user interface

Fields in nodes and boxes can now be highlighted more emotively using the new transparent colors.

Datafields, datasets and datatypes

You can draw upon one of three fields of keys for clearly identifying data sets. It is also now possible to change the names of data fields during runtime.

Help from our runtime dialogs, e.g. print dialog.

The VcHelpRequested event is used to enable the application to call its own help pages when the user presses the F1 key in one of the dialog boxes during runtime.

Automatic conversion of the date output format

The default for the date format is taken from the Windows configuration

Exclusive to VARCHART XNet:

The VCSchedule object enables you to access the schedules by API calls during runtime.

Improved visualization of grouping with group outlines

Group outlining identifies the expansion and collapse of groups. Groups are arranged either horizontally or vertically depending on the chosen direction of flow (from left to right or from top to bottom). Version 4.1 makes it easier to manage large structures thanks to individual opening and closing.
