variables are found only in one report and not in the other. The new tool also compares
the properties of the report components.

report pages to the ODS format, they will be saved as separate sheets.
Packed Queries in Silverlight
Previously, all requests between the client and the server have been passed as an
ordinary string. This led to longer waiting response when the report size is big
or at a low internet speed. In the new release we have included the encryption mode,
and packaging data requests, which led to decreasing the size of requests in 10-20
times.

We have added a new chart type Range, which allows displaying the range of the diagram,
between its initial and final values. The new chart is available in the Chart Wizard
of the report editor.

to the chart Range, with the only difference in mapping the diagram. The new chart
is displayed in a stepwise, incremental area, which is filled with the selected
color.

We have added a new style of diagrams which is Style20. It has a color palette of
pastel shades of brown and gray. We hope that the new style will help you in creating
new and more interesting reports with charts.

Previously this feature was not available in the Silverlight version.
Special Version for Silverlight 5
Now in the distributives of our products we are delivering assemblies compiled under
Silverlight 5. This is due to the fact that Silverlight supports a range of five
unique features that are not available in Silverlight 4, in particular, vector printing.
If you need a vector printing and you should use Silverlight 5, then you will find
everything you need to build Silverlight 5 in the product installation.

of data and text blurring. It should be noted that browser settings are used when
you print using HTML.

you may use a button on the Report Checker panel. Now you do not have to remember
or manually rewrite the message of the report generator, just press the button and
the message will be copied to the clipboard. After that, the message can be inserted
to any text editor.
