New Version
Features
- New RFIDLabel object
- New RFID tag enables the identification of goods and closely resembles a barcode, but unlike the barcode, it uses radio signals which allows a large number of items to be scanned in a short period of time.
- The tag contains 4 data banks:
- Reserved bank for storing access and destruction passwords.
- Electronic product code bank.
- Tag identifier bank.
- User data bank.
- The RFID tag is represented as a report object and can be customized using the user-friendly editor.
- The tag object can be exported to ZPL.
- Support for images in WebP format
- New plug-in adds support for images in WebP format:
- Upload images into a PictureObject using the editor in the report designer and from code.
- FastReport.Skia supports WebP images without a plugin, but they are converted to PNG format when uploaded.
- New plug-in adds support for images in WebP format:
- Preview in the designer window and asynchronous report viewing:
- You can now launch a report preview in the designer window when using the designer in your application. Previously, the preview always started in a separate window.
- Asynchronous methods for report preparation and viewing have also been introduced: Report.PrepareAsync() and Report.ShowAsync().
- They can be used when handling large reports to display the preview window while the report is being prepared to improve the user experience.
- Improves toolbar in the context menu
- The context menu has been improved when right-clicking on an object.
- A toolbar now appears at the top, which contains frequently used items, such as edit, cut, copy, paste, etc.
- Added the ability to customize barcode font settings
- The "Font" property is now available for "Barcode" objects.
- Set the font parameters used when displaying barcode texts.
- The default font is Arial but you can now choose a different font, change its size, style, etc.
- "Convert general to text format" option when exporting to Microsoft Excel 2007
- The Excel 2007 export has a new option that allows you to convert the FastReport .NET general format to Excel text format (general is exported as general by default).
- Reports created in previous FastReport .NET versions will be exported in the same way in the new version since this option is disabled by default.
- Support for partial report compilation
- FastReport.Core, FastReport.Core.Skia and FastReport.CoreWin now enable partial compilation of a report to speed up its preparation if the report script has not been changed in the report and there are no objects that do not support partial compilation.
- New WebReport features
- Improvements in WASM
- Added support for exports - users can now export the resulting reports to various formats, just as is in regular WebReport.
- Reflection.Emit compilation has accelerated the loading and preparation of reports without a script in WebAssembly.
- Toolbar personalization
- Create elements, such as buttons, drop-downs, and input fields, and add them to the toolbar.
- Elements can have various options, including images, titles, and styles.
- Implement logic using JavaScript and C#.
