Adds new features and enhancements to the control suite, plus a new dashboard sample and project templates.

Features

• New Dashboard Demo
  • An all-new mobile version of the dashboard sample app, displays sales and profit comparison, goals, top products, and customers.
  • Features many of the controls, including FlexChart, FlexPie, FlexGrid, BulletGraph, and CollectionView.
  • Demonstrates using the controls within more complicated multi-page arrangements, including master detail, carousel, and tabbed pages.
  • Displays many of the new control animations.
• FlexChart
  • Added pan and zoom to FlexPie and Sunburst charts making dense datasets easier to visualize, improving interaction with both chart types and providing an even better experience on mobile.
  • Added new properties to the Axis object of a traditional FlexChart including Scale and DisplayedRange.
  • Animations - Added animations for FlexChart and FlexPie, these animations are available for loading and updating data in these chart types, as well as selection for FlexPie.
• FlexGrid
  • Added Column/Row Dragging Reordering - One of the most requested features for FlexGrid was the ability drag to reorder rows and columns. This is now available by setting the AllowDragging property.
  • Resizing columns and rows should also feel better in this release, as most of the gesture and touch interactions have been overhauled.
  • New animations accompany reordering your data.
  • Deletion is now based on selection, rather than current cell. Changing the SelectionMode has an impact on what is deleted. Cell-based Selection simply deletes the content of the cell without modifying the CollectionView, though Row-based selection have the rows deleted in both the FlexGrid and CollectionView.

Includes support for React, new controls, plus a new licensing mechanism for server deployment.

Features

• New Licensing Mechanism - implemented a new licensing mechanism in Wijmo when you deploy to a server. You now need to create a distribution key for applications that use Wijmo. Wijmo licensing will not need a distribution key when on localhost, so your development process will go uninterrupted. You only need to generate and apply a distribution key when you are deploying your application to a server.
• Published to NPM - The biggest benefit from adding the new licensing mechanism is that there is now a single distribution which can be published to NPM.
• New TabPanel Control - The TabPanel is smart, it refreshes Wijmo controls when the tabs become visible. Because controls need to be visible on the screen when they are rendered (for calculating dimensions), other tab controls force you to refresh Wijmo controls manually. So this is a nice feature for customers using this TabPanel with embedded Wijmo controls (like FlexGrid).
• Wijmo OLAP is even more powerful now that it can connect directly to Microsoft SSAS Cubes. This is great for those of you who have existing SSAS cubes and want to create a PivotGrid (and PivotChart) bound directly to the cube. This feature requires that you configure a few things in your SSAS Cube to make sure it's accessible via AJAX requests.
• ActiveReports Support in ReportViewer - Wijmo has a modern client-side ReportViewer control that now supports ActiveReports. The Wijmo ReportViewer is written as a control in TypeScript and comes with built-in support for Angular, React, Vue and more. It is also provided in multiple module formats for use with module loaders.
• FlexSheet Tables - Tables in FlexSheet act similarly to Excel; you can select a range of cells in a sheet and convert them to a formatted table.
• React Child Component Support - Added child component support for controls with complex properties: for example, FlexGridColumn for FlexGrid Column objects and FlexChartSeries for Chart Series objects. This makes declaring controls and bindings in markup even more powerful.
• HTTPS CDN - Moving forward, all new versions of Wijmo will be published to a new CDN that supports HTTPS, ensuring you can host your applications on HTTPS and still use Wijmo. It also makes Wijmo easier to use on sites like jsfiddle, codepen, jsbin, etc.
• Accessibility Enhancements - improved accessibility for:
  • Hierarchical FlexGrid (with ARIA treegrid attributes).
  • AutoComplete & ComboBox.
  • FlexGridFilter Dialog.
• New Samples:
  • TabPanelIntro sample | TabPanel blog
  • OLAP SSAS Cube sample | OLAP and SSAS Cube Blog
  • Angular 5 TabPanelIntro sample
  • ActiveReport ReportViewer sample
  • Server CollectionView sample

Includes new React/Redux reference application, Design Time for Wijmo Controls and SASS support.

Features

• Design Time for Wijmo Controls - Until now, Wijmo controls were easy to use, but still required writing code. The 2018 v2 release introduces design-time environments for creating and customizing Wijmo controls. Currently available as two beta products for using a design surface similar to Visual Studio, including a live preview and property grid. The two designers are:
  • New Wijmo Designer for Angular in VSCode (Beta) - This designer is an extension for VSCode. When installed, it adds a "Wijmo Designer…" action above each Angular Wijmo component. When the action button is clicked, it opens up a design surface for customizing that specific component. You can change properties, bind events and save your changes back to the Angular application.
  • New Wijmo Designer for PureJS (Beta) - This designer is a web application for creating and customizing Wijmo controls. You can run this designer in any browser. It allows you to add controls to the design surface and then customize them to your liking. Once finished, you can copy the generated code into your own application. The generated code from this designer is plain HTML and JavaScript. The generated code includes the references, host element, and JavaScript needed to initialize the controls.
• SASS Support for Controls and Themes - Rewritten control styles (layout, default styling) using SASS for simplification and better organization:
  • Easily use the SASS files to create your own themes. SASS files are provided for you to use and customize as you like.
  • Choose which SASS modules you want to include in your application. For example, there is now a Wijmo-Core file that only includes the core modules (not enterprise) and it's only a fraction of the size. You can really optimize your CSS size by selectively choosing what to include.
• New React/Redux Cryptocurrency Tracking Application - Introducing a real-world reference application for Wijmo that uses React and Redux. The application is a financial dashboard for tracking cryptocurrency values. It uses modern design patters for React/Redux and a variety of Wijmo controls, and should help you evaluate and develop Wijmo apps.
• Vue 2 Interop Enhancements - As Vue continues to gain popularity, Wijmo improves its interopability. This release adds some enhancements to Vue 2 support. Most significantly, child components now correctly work in dynamic scenarios like along with the v-for and v-if directives. GrapeCity have also added components like WjFlexGridDetail, numerous child components, and some new samples.
• Added ES6 and ESModule support.
• Web Components in Wijmo:
  • Introduces a beta version of the Wijmo web components interop, which exposes Wijmo controls as web components, or more specifically as custom elements.
  • Wijmo web components allows you to declaratively add Wijmo controls to HTML page, and manipulate them as usual DOM elements, without the use of any additional framework.
  • One of the benefits of web components is that the same component can be used in different frameworks and benefit from the frameworks’ additional capabilities like attribute, property, and event bindings.
  • New 'Web Components In Angular' sample demonstrates how to use Wijmo web components in Angular apps. Samples for other popular frameworks like React, Vue, Polymer, and others are on the way.

Wijmo adds business intelligence PWA sample, submenu support for Menu, plus PDF performance enhancements.

Features

Updates in Wijmo 2018 v2 (Build 523)

• Added new business intelligence PWA sample - Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are regular web apps that behave like native applications on mobile devices. They can be installed, open quickly, and can operate without a network connection. GrapeCity created a MyBI sample app to show how easy it can be to build progressive web apps using Wijmo. It gets sales data stored in a Google Sheet and creates a dashboard to support business decisions.
• WebComponents - Added Beta version of the WebComponents interop. The new Samples\TS\WebComponents\WebComponentsIntro sample explains the status and usage of the interop.
• [npm] Wijmo is published to the global npm registry as the wijmo package.
• Added new HierarchicalMenu sample that demonstrates how to use the new submenu feature of the Menu control.
• Added new DropDownTree sample that demonstrates how to show a TreeView in the drop-down.
• [Menu] Added a Menu.subItemsPath property that allows the creation of hierarchical (multi-level) menus. This is similar to the childItemsPath property in the FlexGrid and TreeView controls. The Menu.subItemsPath property specifies the name of a property that is used to populate child menus when the parent item is clicked.
• [Menu] Added a Menu.openOnHover property that causes the menu (and any sub-menus) to open and close automatically when the mouse hovers over the control.
• [wijmo.pdf][wijmo.grid.pdf] Improved performance, memory consumption is reduced.
• Improved accessibility for grids with imeEnabled (made IME element aria-invisible).
• Improved RTL support in Calendar/DropDown/Popup controls.
• Improved touch support on input (don't show the soft keyboard when picking from drop-downs) and gauge controls (allow touch-scrolling on read-only gauges).
• Improved clipboard support in MultiRow. Before, it would copy duplicate values for merged cells. Now, it copies only the first cell in the merged range and the remaining merged cells are replaced by empty strings (as in Excel).
• Added support for popups in HTML elements.
