Infragistics Javascript Excel LibraryNew Excel Charting API gives you complete control over how your charts are rendered.
Features
Infragistics JavaScript Excel Library
- With support for 70 different chart types, you can now create dashboard reports that visualize data in a clear and easily digestible manner. This brand-new Excel Charting API gives you complete control over how your charts are rendered with the ability to include a legend, a title, axis titles, and a vast number of options for styling such as gridlines, tick marks, colors and more. You have the full power of Excel charts at the tips of your fingers. The best part, you don’t even need to have MS Excel installed.
Sparkline Support
- A sparkline is a tiny chart in a worksheet cell that provides a visual representation of data. Sparklines are used to show trends in a series of values, such as seasonal increases or decreases, economic cycles, or to highlight maximum and minimum values. Showing trends in your worksheet data can be useful, especially when you’re sharing your data with other people.
- Once you have an instance of the Infragistics Worksheet, simply call the Add method on the SparklineGroups collection. Supply the type of sparkline you wish to create (Column, Line, or Stacked), provide the cell you wish to insert the sparkline, and then provide the range of cells that represent the data the sparkline will use.
- After you have created your sparkline, the Infragistics Excel Library gives you an intuitive API that you can use to style various aspects of the sparkline to meet your visualization requirements. The API allows you to enable and control the colors of high and low points, negative points, the first point, the last point, and all markers to name a few.
igGrid
- Time Column - A new column type is added to the igGrid control - time column. In order to use it, it is necessary to set the column dataType to time. In this way, you can filter and update time data using the build-in time picker editor.
- Custom Editor Provider for the Filter Cell - Now, it is possible to create custom editor provider for the filter cell. This means that you can extend the igEditorProvider class and set your own editor to filter the igGrid content.
igSpreadsheet
- Custom Sort Dialog - Added a Custom Sort Dialog to give you full control over how you want to sort your Excel data. For example, if you have a Department column and an Employee column, you can first sort by Department (to group all the employees in the same department together), and then sort by name (to put the names in alphabetical order within each department).
- Top 10 Filter Dialog - When you filter a list using the Top 10 feature, only the top number or the top percent of records remain. You can also filter to display the bottom number or the bottom percent of records. For example, if you want to list the top wage earners in the company, you can filter the Salary column to display only those records with the top ten salaries. If you filter for the top ten percent of wage earners, however, your list would include only those personnel whose salaries together equaled ten percent of the total. Although called Top 10, you can filter for any number or percentage of items you desire.
- Filtering and Sorting Improvements - In 18.1, the AutoFilter dropdown was added to the spreadsheet. The dropdown had menu items for sorting ascending/descending, clearing a filter applied to the column and to apply a numeric/date/text filter. However, it didn’t have a way to apply a sort or filter based on the forecolor, fill or icon. In 18.2, that dropdown contains items to allow filtering or sorting based on the foreground, fill or icon of the cells within that column.
- Deselect a Selection - Sometimes when you're selecting multiple cells or ranges in Excel, you accidentally select one or more that you didn't intend. Now you can deselect any cells within the selected range with the Deselect Feature. Pressing the Ctrl key, you can click, or click-and-drag, to deselect any cells or ranges within a selection. If you need to reselect any of those cells, continue holding the Ctrl key and reselect those cells.
- FormatCellsDialog - The igSpreadsheet lets you change many of the ways it displays data in a cell. For example, you can specify the number of digits to the right of a decimal point, or you can add a pattern and border to the cell. You can access and modify the majority of these settings in the Format Cells dialog box (right-click the cell and select Format Cells).
igFinancialChart
- New Legend - The Financial Chart now comes built-in with a new legend displayed between the toolbar and plotting area. This legend show titles of the data sources and it also shows the last value and percentage change between first data item and the last data item.
- Callouts Annotation - With the Callouts Annotation, you can annotate important data points in Financial Chart or even customize values in callout boxes based on your logic. For example, show stock split, dividends, or calculate maximum price in your data source.
- Crosshairs Layer - You can configure crosshairs to display as a horizontal line, vertical line or both lines at the location of the mouse cursor. In addition, the Crosshairs Annotation can show values of data points at location of mouse cursor and render these values in colored boxes over the X-Axis and Y-Axis labels.
- Final Values - In Financial Chart, you can use the Final Values annotation to show values of the last data point in your data source(s). This annotation is rendered as a colored box for each data source over the Y-Axis label.
- Tooltip Types - The Financial Chart has a new ToolTipType property that adds two new types of tooltips:
- Category Tooltip which renders combined tooltips for all series at a given date
- Item Tooltip which renders an individual tooltip for each series at a given date
- X-Axis Scale Breaks - In Financial Chart, you can define scale breaks on X-Axis to exclude custom ranges in your data source or any day of week. For example, exclude all data items that fall on weekends.
igCategoryChart
- Highlight Layer - The Category Chart can display two new highlight layers when a user hovers over plotted data points.
- Category Highlight Layer renders a vertical rectangle that stretches from the start to end of the category that is closest to the mouse cursor. This rectangle is filled with semi-transparent gray color by default.
- Item Highlight Layer renders a vertical rectangle for each data item in a category that is closest to the mouse cursor. This rectangle is filled with semi-transparent color that matches color of the series by default.
- Callouts Annotation - With the Callouts Annotation, you can annotate important data points in Category Chart or even customize values in callout boxes based on your logic. For example, calculate maximum values in your data source.

You can access and modify the majority of these settings in the Format Cells dialog box (right-click the cell and select Format Cells).
- Number Tab - By default, all worksheet cells are formatted with the General number format. With the General format, anything you type into the cell is usually left as-is. For example, if you type 36526 into a cell and then press ENTER, the cell contents are displayed as 36526. This is because the cell remains in the General number format. However, if you first format the cell as a Currency, then the number 36526 will be displayed as $36,526.00.
- Alignment Tab - You can position text and numbers, change the orientation and specify text control in cells by using the Alignment tab.

- Border Tab - In Excel, you can put a border around a single cell or a range of cells. You can also have a line drawn from the upper-left corner of the cell to the lower-right corner, or from the lower-left corner of the cell to the upper-right corner. You can customize these cells' borders from their default settings by changing the line style, line thickness or line color.
- Fill Tab - Use the Fill tab in the Format Cells dialog box to set the background color of the selected cells. You can also use the Pattern list to apply two-color patterns or shading for the background of the cell.
- Protection Tab - The Protection tab allows you to lock your worksheet to protect your data and formulas. This option does not take effect unless you also protect your worksheet.
- Custom Sort Dialog for UltraSpreadsheet - Since sorting is so important in any Excel document, a Custom Sort Dialog has been added to give you full control over how you want to sort your Excel data. For example, if you have a Department column and an Employee column, you can first sort by Department (to group all the employefes in the same department together), and then sort by name (to put the names in alphabetical order within each department).
- Top 10 Filter Dialog - When you filter a list using the Top 10 feature, only the top number or the top percent of records remain.

DevExpress VCL SubscriptionImproves Grid, PDFViewer, Printing, Scheduler and SpreadSheet controls.
Fixes
ExpressBars Suite
- Ribbon Form - A form maximized on a monitor is also partially visible on another monitor if the DisableAero property is True and the first monitor's DPI exceeds the system DPI.
ExpressEditors Library
- A glyph of the last visible gallery item created at runtime becomes invisible after calling the glyph's Scale procedure if the gallery shows a classic scrollbar.
- TcxDBTimeEdit - An exception occurs on appending a record to a dataset after changing a value in its field bound to the unfocused editor.
ExpressLayout Control
- The transparent background is incorrectly painted for controls embedded into tabbed groups after displaying a window within the layout control's BeginUpdate/EndUpdate method block if runtime themes are enabled.
ExpressLibrary
- SVG Images - The "fill-opacity" element attributes are ignored.
- SVG Images - The "path" elements that include Bezier curves can be incorrectly rasterized in certain cases.
- TcxImageList - A PNG image loaded into an image list at design time is automatically converted to BMP even if both the image and the image list have identical dimensions.
ExpressPDFViewer
- Images whose stencil mask's pixel format is wrong are rendered incorrectly.
- Text rendering routines calculate font glyph indexes incorrectly for built-in TrueType fonts in certain cases.
ExpressPrinting System
- Export to PDF - The "Out of Memory" exception occurs on exporting text if it is within a rectangle that has a zero or negative width or height.
- Grid Report Link - Banded Table View - The height of a footer containing a summary cell is calculated incorrectly if cells within a corresponding column are at least two rows in height.
- Scheduler Report Link - Modern Style - All events that show descriptions, except for day header events, omit the event location text.
- Spreadsheet Report Link - An AV occurs on creating a report that has an RTF string in its first row if the ssovRowAndColumnHeadings flag is not set in the OptionsView property value.
ExpressQuantumGrid Suite
- Export - Table and Banded Table Views - The "List index out of bounds" exception occurs on calling the ExportGridTo~ methods if the View is grouped and has fixed data rows.
- Master-Detail - A detail Layout View's OnCustomDrawRecordCaption event never occurs.
- Server Mode - Expanding a group row in the View grouped by a column whose date-time values are grouped using the dtgByDateAndTime option causes an exception that mentions non-unique columns in the order by list.
- Table and Banded Table Views - Record navigation using the Up Arrow or Down Arrow keystroke produces painting artifacts if the OptionsBehavior.AlwaysShowEditor property is set to True and the OnFocusedRecordChanged event handler is time-consuming.
- TcxPropertiesStore - A control anchored to the bottom and right edges of its parent, resizes in response to resizing the parent if its dimensions are restored after storing at a different monitor DPI.
ExpressQuantumTreeList Suite
- Dragging a column header to the column header panel's right or left edge doesn't scroll the panel's content.
- Switching the root node's Checked property value doesn't affect the checked state of the node's children.
- There is no gap between the right border of a node's checkbox and the focus rectangle's left border if the "TheBezier" skin is applied.
ExpressRichEdit Control
- The "Borders and Shading" dialog shows no fill color for a table cell in which the caret or text selection is located.
- The control ignores fallback fonts specified by a CSS style's font-family property value loaded from an HTML file.
- The control ignores the zero-width joiner (ZWJ) and zero-width non-joiner (ZWNJ) characters loaded from an HTML file.
- The Spell Checker does not recognize words separated by a slash or backslash as individual words.
ExpressScheduler Suite
- Dragging multiple events hides only one of them in the scheduling area.
- Gantt View - Connectors are not displayed between tasks if any of them is located outside the scheduling area.
- Gantt View - It is impossible to link user events that are created programmatically if the Scheduler control's EventOperations.Intersection property is False.
- Modern Style - TimeGrid View - An all-day event with an empty description and at least one event image is resized on toggling the View's EventDetailInfo property.
- Modern Style - TimeGrid View - An event's right border is not visible in certain cases.
- Modern Style - TimeGrid View - Toggling the View's EventDetailInfo property changes positions of the caption and images within an event's layout.
- Switching between the nearest months using the date navigator doesn't display certain events.
- The ribbon tab and group captions displayed by the Ribbon~ style Event dialogs cannot be localized.
ExpressSkins Library
- A skinned form's scrollbars are not repainted according to the new VertScrollBar.Position and HorzScrollBar.Position property values set within a handler of the form's OnMouseWheel event.
ExpressSpreadSheet
- An AV occurs on removing a worksheet that contains a merged cell using the caption bar’s context menu built with the ExpressBars Suite.
- The "Customize Object", "Insert Hyperlink", and "Edit Hyperlink" dialogs show a horizontal scrollbar if their localized UI element captions are wider than the default captions.

Wijmo Enterprise.Includes Web Workers, new OLAP features, a Ribbon sample, accessibility improvements and more.
Features
- Faster PDF Export with Web Workers
- PDF export can often slow down web apps: since the export is happening in the browser’s UI thread, it can cause the rest of the application to be unusable. This is where Web Workers comes to the rescue. We used Web Workers to process the exporting of PDF files on a separate thread from the application UI. This allows the applications to stay usable and the PDF export to churn along in the “background”.
- Group Headers in ComboBox/ListBox
- We've added a showGroups property that you can use to add group headers to ListBox and ComboBox controls. Group header items are added if the showGroups property is set to true and the itemsSource collection has grouping enabled.
- Ribbon Sample using TabPanel
- We’ve added a ribbon sample that shows how you can create ribbons easily using the TabPanel control and the controls in Wijmo's input module.
- The ribbon element is a TabPanel. The tab pages contain groups of controls arranged in rows and columns. Controls in the groups use Material Icons, and have tooltips created automatically based on the aria-label attribute assigned to each control.
- Slicer for OLAP
- We have added a Slicer control to our OLAP module. The Slicer control provides a quick way to edit filters applied to PivotField objects.
- It provides buttons the user can click to filter data based on values and indicates the current filtering state, which makes it easy to understand what is shown in filtered PivotGrid and PivotChart controls.
- Detail Dialog API in OLAP
- The Wijmo PivotGrid allows you to drill down into cells to see the data items that were used to calculate each summary. Users can invoke the detail dialog by double-clicking any value cell. You can also invoke the detail dialog by calling the grid's showDetail method and passing the coordinates of the cell.
- Now, the grid exposes the detail dialog through its detailDialog property, which can be used to customize the dialog.
- Calculated Fields in OLAP
- We also added a PivotField.getValue property to OLAP that allows you to specify a custom function to be used for retrieving the field value for a given item. You can use this to implement calculated fields such as 'binning' (e.g. Value => large/medium/small) or calculated expressions (e.g Conversion => downloads/sales).
- Year Picker in Calendar
- We added a small but useful feature in our Calendar and InputDate controls. You can now click on the year header to open a year picker that allows you to much more easily jump to different years. This little enhancement should save your end users some time when selecting dates.
- Submenu Support Added to Menu
- We got this request from a customer and thought it was a great idea. Our Menu control now supports adding multiple submenus to it so that you can create more complex menus and context menus. We also added an option to open menus on hover.
- Looking for Angular 7 Support?
- We're very excited about Angular 7, and as you know, Wijmo has first-class Angular support. We're happy to announce that Wijmo supports Angular 7, so you can use the current version of Wijmo to build Angular 7 applications today.
