Stimulsoft Reports Product Line: Version 2011.1 is Released.

We are glad to announce the current year first release of Stimulsoft Reports version 2011.1.
Four months passed since the last release and now we would like to share with you all the features and
improvements our development team has prepared. Enormously hard work has been done to make the reporting
tool more robust, powerful and user-friendly. Great many new functions, advanced conditions, wizards,
components, converting utilities are implemented in this release through all the report generators included
into this software product.

Styles in Highlight Condition

Now, the selected style is stored in the condition and, when changing style parameters, design parameters
and conditions are automatically changed. Earlier, style selection in the condition led to copying its
parameters into the parameters of conditions. Also, it is worth to say that now, when using the style in
the condition, the style itself is applied but not parameters of appearance set in the condition and copied
from the style. The style will be applied to the component, if the condition is triggered.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

Applying Parameters in Styles

In the new version of the condition editor, it is possible to specify which parameters of appearance to
use, and which not to use. For example, it allows changing only the color of a displayed text when the condition
is triggered or make the font italic and at the same time change the background color.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

Parameters

To extend the functionality of the reports, in the new version, we have essentially improved the RequestFromUser
option for the variables. Now, using this option, the process of data request from the user can be greatly extended.
It is possible to request not only simple values but nullable values, lists of values and value ranges. Also, we
significantly expanded the functionality of variables that are used as parameters - opportunities to add value
lists for subsequent selection, request date and time separately, to prohibit the direct editing of user parameters
and many more others were implemented. In addition, the report viewer has a new button that hides or displays the
Settings panel. One can now manage the process of report rendering with parameters using the RequestParameters
property of a report. This property affects whether to render a report for the first time automatically with the
default parameters of values or one need to specify the parameters first and then update the report. Also, we added
the ParametersOrientation property. With help of this property it is possible to indicate where the parameters panel
should be placed - on the top or left edge of the viewer.




Applies to: Net, Wpf, Silverlight

Condition - Data Bar

We have added a new Data Bar condition type to increase the quality of visual presentation of information in our
products. When using this condition, the reporting tool analyses all values in the specified data column and the
current value that is output in the component. This information is used to display the color bands in the output
component. This type of condition is very convenient to display the dynamics of changing data in the report. The
Data Bar can only be used in text components.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

Condition - Color Scale

Another new type of conditions is the Color Scale. It is designed to display the dynamics of changing data.
The dynamics is displayed by changing the background color of the component. The color set for the minimum
values are interpolated to the color, which is set for the maximum values, depending on the size of the displayed
values in the component. This condition can only be used for text components.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

Condition - Icons Set

Icon Set is a new type of condition to display graphical information in the text component. When using this
condition, the report generator analyzes the values in this column. All the data got during analysis are divided
into ranges. Each range has its own icon. Depending on what, the range is a value that is generated for this
component is selected and displays an icon. The condition is perfect for graphic reflection of the trends, the
criteria of growth and decline, performance of various indicators. This condition can be used only for text
components.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

New Utilities for Converting Reports

In the new release four new tools for converting reports that are created in other products to the Stimulsoft
Reports format are added. These are import utilities from RDL, Active Reports, XtraReports, and FastReport.Net.
We believe that these tools will simplify migration of reports from other formats.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

New Types of Bar-codes

First, we added a new two-dimensional bar code - QRCode. This barcode is gaining increasing popularity in recent
years. It is used in many applications, particularly in mobile applications. Second, we added two one-dimensional
bar-codes - Code128Auto and EAN128Auto. These two bar-codes scan the code and can automatically switch their modifications
to a, b or c.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

MS Access Data

According to numerous requests from our users we have added a separate type of connection for data connection to the MS
Access database. A new type of connection requests only data needed for MS Access.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

Connecting to EffiProz Data

The new version of our product supports connection to EffiProz databases. The new connection is available in the NET,
WPF, and Web versions of the report designer. The database is optimized for local storage of information. Also, it
allows storing data in memory.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Designer.Web

Wizard for Placing Components

To simplify the placement of components in a band, we have added a special wizard for placement. If, when dragging a component
in a band, its border crosses the band border, then one will be prompted to automatically dock the component to the left or
right side of the band. The size of components already placed in the band will be taken into account.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Desiger.Silverlight

Wizard for Replacing Components

If to drag any field from the data dictionary to an existing component in a page, a replacement component wizard will be invoked.
It offers options for adding or replacing the content of an existing component on data from the data dictionary.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Desiger.Silverlight

New Functions

In the new version we have added great many new functions. The first pack is Left, Mid, and Right functions. The Left function
returns a specified amount of symbols from the beginning of the string. The Mid function returns a specified amount of symbols
from the specified position in the string. The Right function returns a specified amount of symbols from the end of the string.
The second pack is ToWordsEs and ToCurrencyWordsEs. The first function returns the amount of words in Spanish. The second returns
the amount of words (currency option) in Spanish. In addition, it is worth noting that the ToCurrencyWordsEs function supports MXN
(Mexican peso) currency. The third pack is Persian and Arabic. The Persian function returns the number, written in Persian numerals.
The function returns the number written in Arabic numerals. It is worth mentioning that a version for Silverlight, now also supports
the Roman function. The fourth pack is the GetAnchorPageNumberThrough function. It extends the GetAnchorPageNumber function and
returns continuous number of the page. And the fifth pack is the Totals.SumNullable function. It returns null, if all values passed
to this function are null.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

Report Wizards in Silverlight

The previous version of the report designer for Silverlight, did not provide the ability to create reports using the Report Wizards.
In the new version this omission was corrected. The following Report Wizards are added: Standard Report, Master-Detail Report and Label
Report.




Applies to: Silverlight, Desiger.Silverlight

Styles in Dialogs

Until that time, applying styles for controls was not possible. We have decided to eliminate this shortage. All controls now have the
ComponentStyle property which is used for indicating the style. Also a style for dialogs is added - DialogStyle. New styles can be
created in the editor style.




Applies to: Net, Wpf

Rotating Charts in Report

Sometimes it is needed to rotate the chart on a report page on 90 degrees or 180 degrees. In order to achieve this result we added
the Rotation property. The property allows rotating a chart on 90 degrees clockwise or anticlockwise; rotating a chart on 180 degrees;
flip chart either horizontally or vertically.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

The Text in Cells Component in Stimulsoft Reports.Silverlight and Report Designer for Web

We have added a new component to the reporting tools for Silverlight and Web - Text in Cells. The component is used to display text
information in cells. It is typically used for printed forms.




Applies to: Web, Silverlight, Designer.Web, Desiger.Silverlight

Business Objects and Cross-Tab Component

Earlier, the Cross-Tab component could use data only from the data source. Now you can select data including the category
of Business Objects. There is no difference from using data from Business Objects in the Cross-Tab editor in compare with
using data from the Data Sources. In next releases of our products we plan to fully support using of Business Objects in
reports.




Applies to: Net, Web, Wpf, Designer.Web

Report Checker and the Messages Panel

The Report Checker completely superseded the messages panel from the report designer. The button to launch the Report
Checker is placed on the Status Bar of the report designer, where the Message Bar was earlier located. If, while report
rendering, any errors have been found, then the Report Checker will notify about this with a tooltip, clicking on which
you can open the Report Checker and learn more about the problem. The Report Checker displays not only errors but shows
warnings about the potential problems in the report. It also gives various recommendations to change the report. If, when
rendering a report, any messages from the report engine will be received, they will also be displayed with the Report Checker.




Applies to: Net, Wpf

Window 7 Support

We have expanded support of Windows 7 in our products. A progress animation while loading and saving reports in the Windows

the reporting tool will build all sub-reports and place them in this container. A report that has any structure can be created on the sub-page.
Also the Sub-Report component can be placed on the sub-page, so the sub-page of the second level will be created. In other words it is
possible to create complex hierarchy in a report.
