Exontrol ExG2antt Component - Release Notes (https://exontrol.com/exg2antt.jsp)

26.0.0.2 Nov 21, 2024
*Added: Column.GroupByTotalField property indicates the aggregate formula to be displayed when the column gets grouped by. By default, the GroupByTotalField property is "count(current,rec,1)"
*Fixed: Sometimes, the last character of a centered or right-aligned caption gets partially displayed in Print and Print Preview
*Fixed: A GPF may occur on closing the form/window/dialog if one or more events are handled by AttachTemplate method

26.0.0.1 Oct 16, 2024
*Added: New visual appearance for all internal icons to support high DPI resolution (100%, 125%, 150%, 175%, 200% and 300%)
*Added: The Background(exTreeLinesColor) method defines the color to show the tree-lines (connecting lines from the parent to the children)
*Added: The ToolTipMargin property defines the size of the control's tooltip margins. By default, the size of the tooltip margin is "4" (horizontal and vertical). For instance, ToolTipMargin = "8" changes the horizontal and vertical margins are set to 8 pixels. ToolTipMargin = "8,4" changes the horizontal margin to 8 pixels and the vertical margin to 4 pixels.

25.1.0.2 Oct 02, 2024
*Added: Serializes the Items.ItemDivider, Items.ItemDividerLine, Items.ItemDividerLineAlignment and Items.ItemHeight properties to XML file using the LoadXML / SaveXML method
*Fixed: Clicking (Custom) property generates "Class Not Registered" error (Windows x64, 'Looking for object with CLSID:{7EBDAAE1-8120-11CF-899F-00AA00688B10}')
*Fixed: The FilterBarBackColor property does not support EBN objects (The last 7 bits in the high significant byte of the color to indicates the identifier of the skin being used. Use the Add method to add new skins to the control. If you need to remove the skin appearance from a part of the control you need to reset the last 7 bits in the high significant byte of the color being applied to the background's part)

25.1.0.1 Sep 04, 2024
*NEW: Z-Events support (Standard .NET event patterns)
*Added: Every event of the control (/NET assembly) provides a Z-Event alternative, of "void OnEventRaised(object sender, EventArgs args)" type. The .NET convention is for an event (Z-event) signature to have a void return and 2 parameters. The first parameter is of type System.Object and is the sender of the event. The second parameter must be of type System.EventArgs or derived from System.EventArgs and contains data passed between sender and receiver. For instance, the "DblClick(object sender, short Shift, int X, int Y)" event is equivalent to "ZDblClick(object sender, ZDblClickArgs e)", where "ZDblClickArgs" type is derived from System.EventArgs and includes definitions for Shift, X and Y properties
*Fixed: "Warning: The <event-name> event is a .NET event that does not follow the .NET convention for event signatures (OpenEdge, ABL code)". To prevent this warning, under OpenEdge environment you must use the Z-event alternatives 

25.0.0.3 Aug 05, 2024
*NEW:   Ability to re-position the tooltip of objects from the chart (level, bar, link, overview or note)
*Added: The Tooltip(0, -1, Visible, X, Y, CX, CY) event occurs once the level's tooltip is about to be shown (-1 if the mouse pointer hovers the levels of the chart). The Tooltip(0, -2, Visible, X, Y, CX, CY) event occurs once the bar's tooltip (exBarToolTip) is about to be shown (-2 if the mouse pointer hovers the bars of the chart). The Tooltip(0, -3, Visible, X, Y, CX, CY) event occurs once the link's tooltip (exLinkToolTip) is about to be shown (-3 if the mouse pointer hovers the links of the chart). The Tooltip(0, -4, Visible, X, Y, CX, CY) event occurs once the note's tooltip (Note.PartToolTip) is about to be shown (-4 if the mouse pointer hovers the notes of the chart). The Tooltip(0, -5, Visible, X, Y, CX, CY) event occurs once the overview's tooltip (Chart.OverviewToolTip) is about to be shown (-5 if the mouse pointer hovers the overview section of the chart). In other words the ColIndex parameter of the Tooltip event could one of the above negative values. For instance, you can change the X or Y parameters to re-position the tooltip relative to its default position or fixed to the screen. X = X + 8, makes the tooltip to be shown 8 pixels to the right, while X = 100 specifies that always the tolltip will be shown at fixed horizontal position.
*Added: GridLinesStyleEnum.exGridlinesGeometric flag. The control's gridlines are drawn using a geometric pen. A geometric pen can have any width and can have any of the attributes of a brush, such as dithers and patterns (a cosmetic pen can only be a single pixel wide and must be a solid color, but cosmetic pen are generally faster than geometric pens.

25.0.0.2 Jul 01, 2024
*NEW:   Show the column's drop down filter bar button differently, while the column has a filter applied
*Added: The Background(exHeaderFilterBarActive) property specifies the visual appearance of the drop down filter bar button, while filter is applied to the column
*Added: Ensures that all chart's levels are filled when the user resizes/zooms the chart by drag and drop (Chart.AllowResizeChart property, no empty level(s) shown when user middle-click and drag)
*Fixed: A GPF may occur if re-loading data using expandable columns (Column.ExpandColumns property)

25.0.0.1 Jun 03, 2024
*NEW:   Total fields support ( Aggregate functions: sum, min, max, count, avg )
*Added: ValueFormatEnum.exTotalField indicates a cell whose Items.CellValue property indicates a aggregate function and a formula to compute the field. For instance, SUM(parent,dir,%1+(%2+%3)/2) computes the sum of the second column with the half of the sum between third and forth columns from direct descendents of parent item. The syntax for the CellValue property should be: aggregate(list,direction,formula), where aggregate could be sum, min, max, count, avg, list could be: a long expression or all, current, parent or root, and the direction could be dir or rec.
*Added: Items.ComputeValue(Expression,Item,Column,Type) computes the value for the giving expression.
*Added: The exComputedField or exTotalField can be combined with exText or exHTML so a computed field can display standard or HTML text.

24.0.0.5 May 08, 2024
*Fixed: Prevents adding unnecessary 'MoveBar' undo/redo operations for summary-bars
*Fixed: All columns part of the ExpandColumns property get hidden once a column gets removed

24.0.0.4 Apr 03, 2024
*Added: PowerBuilder 21.0 sample
*Fixed: The image/picture of the editor's button (Editor.AddButton) is hidden while cursor hovers the cells with Items.CellEditorVisible property on exEditorVisible(1)
*Fixed: On some machines, the format keyword (within expression properties) provides more than 2 decimals for French(Canada) regional settings (for instance "12.3456 format ``" displays 12.3456 instead of 12.35)
*Fixed: The control waits too long to add bars with exBarKeepWorkingCount on items with Items.ItemNonworkingUnits property set

24.0.0.3 Mar 11, 2024
*Added: The ItemBar(,,exBarTransparent) property enables customization of the item-bar transparency, while the Bar's OverlaidType property is set to exOverlaidBarTransparent (previously the bar's transparency is lost once the control is refreshed)
*Added: The expression properties supports `bias` constant that defines the difference, in minutes, between Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and local time. For example, Middle European Time (MET, GMT+01:00) has a time zone bias of "-60" because it is one hour ahead of UTC. Pacific Standard Time (PST, GMT-08:00) has a time zone bias of "+480" because it is eight hours behind UTC. For instance, date(value - bias/24/60) converts the UTC time to local time, or date(date('now') + bias/24/60) converts the current local time to UTC time
*Fixed: The expanded/collapsed columns are not shown properly after a new column

24.0.0.2 Feb 07, 2024
*Added: Background(exCursorHoverCellButton) property. Specifies the visual appearance of the cell's button when the cursor hovers it.

*Fixed: The BarResize event is not fired if the bar is re-created by drag and drop (or Items.AddBar method is called on an existing bar)
*Fixed: The control's ForeColorHeader property is not applied on the control's columns-float bar (the columns into the columns-float bar are always displayed in black)

24.0.0.1 Jan 15, 2024
*NEW:   Undo/Redo Support for the list/items section, to include adding or removing the items, changing the item's parent/position, updating the cell's value or cell's state (check-box/radio-button state) (The Undo and Redo features let you remove or repeat single or multiple actions, but all actions must be undone or redone in the order you did or undid them   you can t skip actions. For example, if you change the value of three cells in an item and then decide you want to undo the first change you made, you must undo all three changes)
*Added: Items.StartBlockUndoRedo method starts recording the UI operations as a block of undo/redo operations (equivalent of Chart.StartBlockUndoRedo method)
*Added: Items.EndBlockUndoRedo method ends recording the UI operations and adds the undo/redo operations as a block, so they all can be restored at once, if Undo method is performed (equivalent of Chart.EndBlockUndoRedo method)

23.0.0.6 Dec 20, 2023
*Fixed: Sometimes, the start/end time of the bar being moved by drag and drop may change, if the Items.ItemBar(exBarKeepWorkingCount) property is True
*Fixed: The cell shows as unselected once the user selects a new option from the cell's drop down editor (while using the ENTER key, DropDownListType editor)
*Fixed: Editor.AddItem(value,vbNullString,image) method fails

23.0.0.5 Dec 07, 2023

23.0.0.4 Nov 24, 2023
*Added: Sets or gets the control's Font property in design mode, for the /NET version
*Fixed: The BackColor/ForeColor properties of the /NET version are not serialized once the user changes in design mode (the control's background/foreground is set to the default value once the form is started)
*Fixed: The BackColor/ForeColor properties of the /NET version are not copied in design mode, when the user copies the control in design-mode using CTRL + C (copy) and CTRL + V (paste) combination

23.0.0.3 Nov 08, 2023
*Added: Adjusts the height of the item into a drop down editor based on the control's DefaultItemHeight and the Font property (max)
*Added: Shows the selection on the entire cell (full height), for editors like DropDownListType, CalculatorType, CheckListType or ColorListType
*Fixed: The exBezierCurve histogram shows as exRoundCurve

23.0.0.2 Oct 23, 2023
*Added: The Editor.Option(exDropDownColumnAutoResize) property specifies whether the drop down list resizes automatically its visible columns to fit the drop down width. In other words, the Editor.Option(exDropDownColumnAutoResize) property specifies whether the drop down list shows or hides the horizontal scroll-bar (boolean expression)
*Fixed: The Editor.Option(exDropDownBackColor) / Column.Editor.Option(exDropDownForeColor) properties changes the control's BackColor / ForeColor properties

23.0.0.1 Oct 04, 2023
*NEW:   Built-In Multiple-Columns Drop-Down Editor support
*Added: The Editor.AddItem / Editor.InsertItem method allows using   character (vertical broken bar, ALT + 221) to define captions for for multiple columns (available for DropDownType, DropDownListType and PickEditType editors). While the   character is not escaped (such as "\ ") it specifies the separator of captions for each column. The | character (pipe, vertical bar, ALT + 126) defines the key or identifier of the item to add. In conclusion, the format of the Caption parameter (Editor.AddItem / Editor.InsertItem method) is "key|caption caption ... caption", which indicates an item with the giving key / identifier, which displays multiple captions. For instance, "<b>New York</b> City" defines the "New York City" item, "NYC|<b>New York</b> City" the "New York City" item with the "NYC" as key or identifier, "NYC|<b>New York</b> City 783.8 km  8.42 mil" defines the "New York City" item with the "NYC" as key or identifier and sub-captions 783.8 km  and 8.42 mil (in separated columns)
*Added: The Editor.Option(exDropDownColumnCaption) property specifies the HTML caption for each column within the drop down list, separated by   character (vertical broken bar, ALT + 221). If the exDropDownColumnCaption option is empty, the header is not visible. For instance, "Col <b>1 Col <b>2" shows the drop down header, and defines the captions for the first two-columns (string expression)
*Added: The Editor.Option(exDropDownColumnWidth) property specifies the width for each column within the drop down list, separated by   character (vertical broken bar, ALT + 221). For instance, " 32" defines the width for the second-column only (string expression)
*Added: The Editor.Option(exDropDownColumnPosition) property specifies the position for each column within the drop down list, separated by   character (vertical broken bar, ALT + 221). For instance, " 0 1" indicates that the second-column is dislayed first, and the third-column is displayed on second-position (string expression)

22.0.1.6 Sep 06, 2023
*NEW: Visual / Content customization for start / end margins of the bar being created, resized or moved (Chart.DateTickerLabel property)
*Added: The Chart.DateTickerLabel property supports <%=formula%> expression to customize the label to be shown for start and/or end margins of the bar being created, moved or resized. The expression (after the = character) supports keywords such as "value" that defines the DATE being displayed (could be start or end), "start" that defines the start-margin of the bar as a DATE type and "end" that defines the end-margin of the bar as a DATE type. For instance, "<%=shortdate(value=end?value-1:value)%>" displays the end-margin with one day before, or the "<%mmm%> <%d%><fgcolor 808080><%=value=end?` (`+(end - start) + `)`:``%>" displays the month, the day and for the end-margin includes the number of days of the bar being created, resized or moved. The "<%=value=start?``:value%>" specifies that only end-margin of the bar is being shown.
*Added: The Background(exDateTickerLabelBack) property specifies the visual appearance to display the background of the date label, while create, resize or move a bar (valid while Chart.DrawDateTicker property is True and Chart.DateTickerLabel property is not empty)). The background of the date label is not applied if -1.
*Added: The Background(exDateTickerLabelFore) property specifies the label's foreground color, while create, resize or move a bar (valid while Chart.DrawDateTicker property is True and Chart.DateTickerLabel property is not empty)
*Added: The Background(exDateTickerLabelHAlign) property specifies the horizontal alignment of the date label, while create, resize or move a bar as a value of 0(left - alignment, default), 1(center - alignment) and 2(right - alignment)
*Added: The Background(exDateTickerLabelVAlign) property specifies the vertical alignment of the date label, while create, resize or move a bar as a value of 0(top - alignment, right-below the header, default), 1(center - follow the creating, resizing or moving the bar)
*Added: The Background(exDateTickerLabelHMargin) property specifies the distance between the date-label and the bar, while create, resize or move a bar
*Fixed: The date-label that shows the start of the creating bar is not moved once the cursor is moved to the left (valid while Chart.DrawDateTicker property is True and Chart.DateTickerLabel property is not empty)

22.0.1.5 Aug 30, 2023
*Added: The Chart.StartPrintDate and Chart.EndPrintDate properties specify the start/end margins for the chart while using the CopyTo method. Currently, the Chart.StartPrintDate and Chart.EndPrintDate properties are used to specify the chart's start/end margins when using CopyTo method and when printing the control's content using the eXPrint component.
*Fixed: The Editor.Locked property is ignored for MaskType editors (Editor.EditType property)
*Fixed: The cell's date can't be changed, while using the DateType editor and Regional settings (Windows System) for date like ddd.dd.mm.yyyy (Su.15.02.2021)

22.0.1.4 Jul 26, 2023
*Added: The ShowToolTip method can be used to update the object's tooltip, title or position. For instance, ShowToolTip(`<null>`,`<null>`,,`+8`,`+8`) during MouseMove event, shows the tooltip of the object moved relative to its default position.
*Added: The Bar.Def(exCellToolTip), Bar.Def(exBarHistLegend), Items.ItemBar(,,exBarToolTip), Items.ItemBar(,,exBarHistLegend) property supports %CS0, %CS1, ... and %CD0, %CD1, ... keywords which indicates the state of the cell ( Items.CellState property ), and cell's extra data ( Items.CellData property ) on the column with the index 0, 1, ...
*Fixed: Calling the ShowToolTip() method during the ToolTip event may flicker

22.0.1.3 Jul 03, 2023

*Fixed: Sometimes, the user can't scroll to the last visible date, when using any of Chart.ScrollRange, Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits, Chart.NonworkingHours, Level.Count ( != 1) properties
*Fixed: The locked-items are displayed normally only when the cursor hovers them else they are shown bolder (ShowLockedItems property, Items.LockedItemCount property)

22.0.1.2 Jun 05, 2023
*Added: FilterBarVisibleEnum.exFilterBarTop (0x2000) flag aligns the control's filter-bar to the top of the control. The filter-bar is displayed right-below the control's header-bar. By default, the control's filter-bar is aligned to the bottom  (FilterBarPromptVisible property)
*Added: The frame around the the focus cell gets inflated based on Column.Def(exCellPaddingLeft), Column.Def(exCellPaddingRight), Column.Def(exCellPaddingTop), Column.Def(exCellPaddingBottom) (ShowFocusRect property, Background(exShowFocusRect))
*Added: The Images method supports the Microsoft ImageList ( mscomctl.ocx, MSComctlLib.ImageList type) object directly. Shortly, you can define the control's images by calling Images(ImageList1.Object). The ImageList1.Object returns the object of MSComctlLib.ImageList type. The Microsoft ImageList object is available for /COM on x86 and x64 machines (starting from Access 2016)
*Fixed: The vertical grid lines overrides the frame around the focus cell (ShowFocusRect property, DrawGridLines property)

22.0.1.1 May 08, 2023
*Added: ExG2antt.pdf (include the control's documentation in PDF format)
*Added: The column is not clickable while the Column.AllowSort and Column.AllowDragging properties are false (also prevents changing the column's background color while cursor hovers a non-clickable column, Background(exCursorHoverColumn) property)
*Fixed: A "Stack overflow" exception may occur if Refresh method is called during the LayoutChanged event (exhelper minimized, 1721)
*Fixed: The Background(exListOLEDropPosition) property specifies the visual-appearance (including EBN files) of the item while the OLE drag and drop cursor hovers it (previously the item's highlight-appearance was always 2-pixels tall)

22.0.1.0 Apr 03, 2023
*Added: The Bar.OverviewColor property specifies the color to show this type of bar within the control's overview panel. By default, the Bar.OverviewColor property is 0, which indicates that the Items.ItemBar(exBarOverviewColor), Items.ItemBar(exBarColor) or Bar.Color determines the color to display the bar. If the Bar.OverviewColor property is 0 it indicates the color to show all bars of this type. If the Bar.OverviewColor property is -1, no bar of this type is represented in the control's overview. 
*Added: The Items.ItemBar(exBarOverviewColor) property on -1, prevents the bar to be shown within the control's overview panel (hides it)
*Added: Shows the nonworking-part of the item behind the item's background, if the Chart.GridLineStyle property includes the exGridLinesBehind flag (prevents overriding the item's background if the Chart.NonworkingDaysPattern or Chart.NonworkingHoursPattern property is exPatternSolid)
*Added: The control's tooltip is shown when the cursor hovers it no matter if the window that hosts the control is activated

22.0.0.9 Mar 01, 2023
*Added: The Items.CellMerge(Item,Column) supports a string value that holds the list of identifiers separated by comma. For instance, Items.CellMerge(Item,0) = "1,2,3", specifies that the cell on column 0, merges with cells of columns 1, 2, 3. The syntax is equivalent with Items.CellMerge(Item,0) = 1; Items.CellMerge(Item,0) = 2; Items.CellMerge(Item,0) = 3;
*Fixed: The "Do you want to save changes to the design of form ''? Yes, No, Cancel" message occurs in MS Access, every time the form is closed in design mode
*Fixed: A GPF occurs once the user selects a new unit-scale from the control's overview zoom, if the Chart.ScrollRange property is set.
*Fixed: Prevents highlighting Today zone (Chart.MarkTodayColor property) if it does not fit the Chart.ScrollRange property

22.0.0.8 Feb 01, 2023

*Fixed: Changing the SortBarColumnWidth property has no effect for /NET or /WPF version
*Fixed: Prevents saving the PercentFormat="<b>%p%</b>" into XML format (the "<b>%p%</b>" is the default format to display the bar's percent)
*Fixed: The Items.ItemBar(exBarPercent) = value takes the absolute value instead positive value (for instance Items.ItemBar(exBarPercent) = -1 sets the bar's percent to 100% instead of 0%)

22.0.0.7 Jan 09, 2023
*Added: The Chart.HistogramValue(Chart.DateFromPoint(-1, -1)) property returns the cumulated histogram-value at specified date, while Chart.HistogramValueFromPoint property returns the histogram-value from the cursor. In the same manner, the Chart.HistogramValue("min") and Chart.HistogramValue("max") properties return the minimum and maximum cumulated histogram-values.
*Added: The Chart.HistogramValueFromPoint property returns the histogram-value from cursor, even if the Bar.ShowHistogramValues property has not been specified
*Fixed: The Chart.OverlaidOnMoving property has no effect
*Fixed: The Chart.HistogramValueFromPoint property returns no value if the histogram displays groups of items (exHistogramNoGrouping flag is missing from Chart.HistogramView property)

22.0.0.6 Dec 14, 2022
*NEW:   Support for "FileGroupDescriptor" and "FileContents" clipboard format, or ability to accept messages or attachments by drag and drop from the MS Outlook application (or any other applications that use these clipboard format)
*Added: During the OLEDragDrop event the Data.Files.Count property returns the number of messages or attachments being dropped, while Data.Files(index) property returns the fully path-name of the file that contains the message or the attachment. The control automatically extracts the message/attachment's content to a temporarily file, as you would drop a file from Windows Explorer.
*Fixed: No intersection of two or more overlapped bars is shown even the Bar.OverlaidType property is set on exOverlaidBarsIntersect. Defaults the Bar.Overlaid(exOverlaidBarsIntersect) property to "Progress"
*Fixed: A black-portion is shown on the control's sort-bar above the chart

22.0.0.5 Nov 21, 2022
*Added: Allows scrolling the chart by drag and drop while using the right-button of the mouse, if the AutoDrag property exAutoDragOnRight
*Fixed: Scolls the control's header on the fly, when user scrolls the control's content by drag and drop (AutoDrag property on exAutoDragScroll)
*Fixed: Can't select bars by drag and drop the frame while control displays top-locked items (ShowLockedItems property)
*Fixed: The item's height is changed while it contains bars of exOverlaidBarsOffset/exOverlaidBarsIntersect type (prevents adjusting the item's height while it contains only bars of exOverlaidBarsOffset/exOverlaidBarsIntersect type)

22.0.0.4 Oct 19, 2022
*Added: The Chart.HistogramZOrder property specifies the z-order of the bars to be shown within the chart's histogram. For instance, "Task-A,Task" {number}, indicates that the "Task-A" bar is on top of "Task" when they display together within the chart's histogram.
*Added: Prevents showing the histogram's critical-value, if the Bar.HistogramCriticalColor property is 0
*Fixed: Updates the control's overview and histogram once the user scrolls the chart's content by drag and drop (AutoDrag property is exAutoDragScroll)
*Fixed: The selection frame of the chart flickers once the user clicks an empty portion of the chart while the AutoDrag property is exAutoDragScroll

22.0.0.3 Oct 05, 2022
*NEW:   Ability to cumulate the histogram for multiple type of bars
*Added: The Chart.HistogramView(exHistogramGroupCumulative + flags) shows cumulative-histogram for all type of bars the chart currently displays. You can set the Bar.HistogramCumulativeOriginalColorBars property on exKeepOriginalColor to prevent changing the colors within the histogram.
*Added: The Bar.HistogramCumulativeColors property supports 0 (cumulative-type, without colors)
*Fixed: Sets the format of Items.ItemBar(exBarEffort) property to a number (if matches a number format), else sets as an expression(string) that supports "value", "start" and "end" keywords, that defines a variable-effort for the task (LoadXML method). For instance, Items.ItemBar(exBarEffort) = "2" is equivalent with Items.ItemBar(exBarEffort) = 2, which defines a constant effort of 2, instead evaluated it as a variable-effort,

22.0.0.2 Sep 05, 2022
*NEW:   Ability to show or hide the non-working units (days and/or hours)
*Added: The Chart.ShowNonworkingHours property specifies whether the non-working hours are visible or hidden, if the Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits property is False. For instance, if the Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits property is False and Chart.ShowNonworkingHours property is True, the non-working hours are shown using the Chart.NonworkingHoursPattern and Chart.NonworkingHoursColor properties. If the Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits property is False and Chart.ShowNonworkingHours property is False, the non-working hours are hidden. Shortly, the Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits property specifies whether the non-working days(Chart.ShowNonworkingDates)/hours(Chart.ShowNonworkingHours) are visible or hidden. In conclusion, If the Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits property is True, the Chart.ShowNonworkingDates or/and Chart.ShowNonworkingHours properties display or hide the non-working pattern while if Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits property is False, the Chart.ShowNonworkingDates or/and Chart.ShowNonworkingHours properties show or hide the non-working units. The Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits property has no effect if Chart.ShowNonworkingDates and Chart.ShowNonworkingHours properties are True. 
*Fixed: the Chart.ShowNonworkingHours property has no effect if Chart.ShowNonworkingUnits property is False.
*Fixed: The Chart.HistogramView(exHistogramCheckedItems + flags) shows nothing, if flags does not include exHistogramUnlockedItems.

22.0.0.1 Aug 01, 2022
*NEW:   Radical improvements for chart's histogram
*Added: The chart's histogram does not depend any more on Chart.ResizeUnitScale and/or Chart.ResizeUnitCount property (performance is improved too)
*Added: The Chart.HistogramUnitScale and Chart.HistogramUnitCount properties specify the time-scale unit/count to determine the effort of bars with variable-effort (effort of expression/string type). The Chart.HistogramUnitScale and Chart.HistogramUnitCount properties have effect only for bars with Items.ItemBar(exBarEffort) as string to define a variable-effort using an expression that supports, value, start and end keywords. If Chart.HistogramUnitScale and Chart.HistogramUnitCount properties have not been set, the Chart.ResizeUnitScale and/or Chart.ResizeUnitCount property is used instead. For instance, the exBarEffort on "weekday(value) in (0,6) ? 0 : 2", means that that effort to do the job is 2 for any day in the task, excepts the Sundays(0) and Saturdays(6) (weekend). By default, the Chart.HistogramUnitScale / Chart.HistogramUnitCount property is equivalent with the Chart.ResizeUnitScale / Chart.ResizeUnitCount property
*Added: The color to show the grid and ruler lines on top of the histogram's critical-value is defined by Bar.HistogramCriticalColor property

21.0.0.5 Jul 26, 2022
*Added: The default value for Column.GroupByFormatCell property is "'<caption>'" instead of "value"
*Fixed: No matter what column I get grouped by, no caption is displayed just a number.
*Fixed: The vertical solid grid-lines show interrupted (Level.GridLineStyle is exGridLinesSolid, Level.DrawGridLines is True)

21.0.0.2 May 02, 2022
*Added: Serializes the visibility and position of the columns float bar using the Layout property. The "ColumnsFloatBar" and "ColumnsFloatBarRect" fields of Layout content save/load the visibility/position of the columns float bar. In other words, the Layout property serializes the columns float bar (visibility and position)
*Fixed: The HeaderSingleLine property is ignored if the control's header displays multiple levels of columns (Column.LevelKey property)

20.0.1.0 Dec 01, 2021
*Added: The option "Roll the mouse wheel to scroll" of Window's mouse & touchpad settings specifies the number of items to vertically scroll. Previously, scrolling vertical with the mouse wheel takes 3 items at a time
*Fixed: The scroll bar's thumb minimum-size is equivalent with the size of the size of scroll's buttons. In other words, the size of the scroll's buttons specify the thumb minimum-size. Previously, the thumb's minimum-size was 6-pixels.
*Fixed: The chart's today marker is shown over the top-locked area, if the Chart.DrawGridLines property is exRowLines (Chart.MarkTodayColor, ShowLockedItems, Items.LockedItemCount)

*Fixed: The drop down FontType editor is too small for 4K resolution
*Fixed: The Items.ItemBar(exBarMinStart/exBarMaxStart/exBarMinEnd/exBarMaxEnd) property returns a numeric-value (VT_R8) instead of date value (VT_DATE).

20.0.0.3 Aug 02, 2021
*Added: Prevents resizing an item with Items.ItemAllowSizing property on True, while Items.ItemMinHeight and Items.ItemMaxHeight provides no range ( for instance are both are equal ). In the same manner the resize-cursor does not shows up once the cursor hovers the resize part of the item.
*Fixed: The Items.ItemMaxHeight property on 0, is ignored while the item contains a cell with Items.CellSingleLine property on False.
*Fixed: The Items.ItemMinHeight and Items.ItemMaxHeight properties are ignored if resizing all items, using the ItemsAllowSizing property on exResizeAllItems.
*Fixed: The abc font name displays three-dots if Editor.EditType property is FontType

The DataContext/DataSource support of the control allows you to use the data-binding feature of the /WPF environment for our /WPF ex-controls. The DataSource property specifies the sub-set of DataContext the control should get data from. The DataSource property can be: DataTable, DataView, DataSet, DataViewManager, any component that implements the IListSource interface, or any component that implements the IList interface. The DataContext is the source of all entities mapped over a database connection. Once the DataSource property is set, the control automatically gets data based on the DataContext property.
*Added: DataTaskBegin property gets or sets the specific field in the data source to indicate the starting point of each added task. If missing or empty, no tasks are loaded during binding.
*Added: DataTaskEnd property gets or sets the specific field in the data source to indicate the ending point of each added task. If missing or empty, no tasks are loaded during binding. If the DataTaskEnd points to a DateTime object, it indicates the ending date of the newly bar, else, it indicates the duration of the task to be added. If the DataTaskEnd is equal with DataTaskBegin, a one-day task is added for each record found, during binding.
*Fixed: The Note ignores the Chart's MonthNames/WeekDays property to display the note's caption.

*Fixed: Sometimes, the user can't select overlaid-bars by single-click ( Bar.OverlaidType property )

19.2.0.2 Oct 16, 2020
*NEW:   Ability to show / hide columns by check/un-check the column in the Columns floating-bar (ColumnsFloatBarVisible property)
*Added: The ColumnsFloatBarVisible property of ColumnsFloatBarVisibleEnum type, retrieves or sets a value that indicates whether the the columns float bar is visible or hidden. The ColumnsFloatBarVisibleEnum.exColumnsFloatBarVisibleIncludeCheckColumns associates a check-box for each column. The Columns floating bar displays all columns with AllowDragging property on True, and the check's box state indicates whether the column is visible or hidden. As previously, the user can drag or drop any column in the Columns floating bar and the associated check-box is updated based on the column's Visible property.
*Added: Toggles the Visible property for listed columns within the Columns floating bar, when it is active and the user presses the SPACE key. This option is valid, while the ColumnsFloatBarVisible property is exColumnsFloatBarVisibleIncludeCheckColumns.

19.2.0.1 Sep 17, 2020
*NEW:   Ability to executes x-script code ( including events ), from a string, file or a safe array of bytes. This feature allows you to load the control's visual appearance and behavior, without having to write any line of code. The x-script code can save EBNs, icons, pictures into BASE64 encoded strings, and so everything can be put into a single file, that should be invoked by AttachTemplate method. This feature allows you to run any x-script code for any configuration of the component (/COM, /NET or /WPF). 
*Added: AttachTemplate method executes the giving x-script code, and attach events if found. The x-script code can contain handle keyword that defines a handler for the specified event. For instance, the AttachTemplate("handle Click() { print(Version) }") sends the control's Version property to the debugger for display. All you need is to open the DebugView tool, and click the control.
*Added: The control's Template page supports AttachTemplate so you can assign x-script code ( including events )  in design mode, and so the control's visual appearance and behavior is changed once the control is created at runtime (/COM version only). 
*Fixed: "The current version, supports ADO and DAO Recordsets. Make sure that the object is an ADO recordset, or a DAO recordset" error may occur if using ADO objects.

*NEW:   Ability to wraps the cell's caption on line break only
*Added: The Items.CellSingleLine property specifies whether the cell's caption is displayed on single-line, or wraps around the words or line breaks. Previously, the Items.CellSingleLine property was of Boolean type, while currently it is of CellSingleLineEnum type. For instance, Items.CellSingleLine() = exCaptionBreakWrap indicates that the cell's caption is displayed on new lines when line break is found ( <br> for HTML captions or \r\n sequence ). Also, the option is valid if you specify the Column.Def(exCellSingleLine) property.
*Fixed: The EnsureVisibleItem method does not vertically scroll the control's content, if previously the control's list has been sorted ( Column.SortOrder property, Layout property, ... )
*Fixed: The Items.SelectableItem property returns 1 instead of -1 / True value.

19.1.0.2 Jul 06, 2020
*Fixed: Can't click the cell's button, if it is displayed on the chart portion of the control ( Chart.ColumnsFormatLevel property, Column.Def(exCellHasButton) property, Items.CellHasButton property, ButtonClick event )
*Fixed: The predefined icon-bars such as "Summary", "Project Summary", "Milestone" or "Deadline" shows distorted on  DPI applications.
*Fixed: The user can't resize the last locked-column that fit's the control's client area, if it wider (CountLockedColumns property)

*Added: The exFilterBarShort flag indicates that the control's filter bar is shown on the Items section only. 
*Added: The FilterBarCaption property supports the leafitemcount keyword that counts the number of leaf items being shown in the control. This function should be used when you are displaying hierarchies, else you can still uses itemcount or matchitemcount that are faster than leafitemcount function. For instance, FilterBarCaption property "allui + `<r>` + leafitemcount + ` item(s)`" displays all available UI filter columns, and aligned to the right the number of leaf items.
*Fixed: Sometimes, can't select by drag items if the ColumnAutoResize property is False

*Fixed: Hides the hot-tracking item as soon as control's content is scrolled ( rotating the mouse wheel for instance ), selection is changed ( any of arrow key is pressed for instance ).
*Fixed: The CloneType flag of Editor.EditType can produces a GPF, if the Columns.Clear or Items.RemoveAllItems is called.
*Fixed: Can't select the focus-item with the arrow keys, if it selectable while the view displays a single item and the SingleSel property is False.
*Fixed: Any expression that includes the "in" operator fails.

19.0.0.2 Nov 04, 2019
*NEW:   FilterBarCaption property supports expressions, and UI  Column's Filter
*Added: The FilterBarCaption property supports expressions, so its evaluated value defines the HTML caption to be displayed on the control's filter bar. By default, the FilterBarCaption property is empty, so the control's automatically computes the filter bar's label based on the filter of each column. If no filter is selected, no filter label is generated. The FilterBarCaption property supports the following predefined keywords: value or current ( defines the control's current filter label, as it is displayed ), itemcount keyword returns the number of all items within the control, visibleitemcount keyword indicates the number of visible items within the control ( negative value indicates that the control has a filter applied, equivalent with the Items.VisibleItemCount property ), matchitemcount keyword indicates the number of items that currently matches the control's filter ( negative value indicates that the control has a filter applied, equivalent with the Items.MatchItemCount property ), promptpattern keyword specifies the currently pattern for the filter's prompt ( this is eligible, if the FilterBarPromptVisible property includes the exFilterBarPromptVisible flag ), available keyword returns a list of columns that are currently not filtered, but available to be filtered for ( Column.DisplayFilterButton property on True ) as a HTML string, allui keyword returns a HTML caption that includes all columns with Column.DisplayFilterButton property on True, including the value for each column's filter if it is filtered, all keyword returns a HTML caption that includes all columns including the value for each column's filter if it is filtered. For instance, FilterBarCaption = "`<r>` + value" aligns the filter bar's label to the right, the "value replace `[` with `<fgcolor=808080>[` replace `]` with `]</fgcolor>`" shows the column's name with a different color, "`<b><r>` + value + `</b><fgcolor=808080>` + ( matchitemcount < 0 ? ( ( len(value) ? `<br>` : `` ) + `<r>` + abs(matchitemcount + 1) + ` result(s)` ) : ``)" displays the number of results in the control's filter bar and so on.
*Added: Ability to clear / select new filter value from the column's filter panel, if the user clicks the column's caption of the control's filter bar. The value, current, available, allui or all keyword of the FilterBarCaption property returns a HTML caption that includes the column's caption between [<b> and </b>] if the column is currently filtered ( shows as bold between brackets ), between <fgcolor=C0C0C0>[<s> and </s>]<fgcolor> if the column is not currently filtered ( shows in strikeout as gray between brackets ). The all, allui and available keywords uses the <fgcolor> </fgcolor> sequence (uncolored space) to separate the parts on the control's filter description. You can use predefined functions like replace to change the appearance of the column in the control's filter bar. For instance, "all replace `<s>` with `` replace `</s>` with ``" removes the strikeout effect for available and not-filtered columns, "allui replace `[<b>` with `<bgcolor=000000><fgcolor=FFFFFF><b> ` replace `</b>]` with ` </b></fgcolor></bgcolor>`" shows the filtered columns on white on a black background, "value + `<r>` + available replace `<fgcolor=C0C0C0>` with `<fgcolor=FF0000>`" shows the currently filter on the left, while the available filter on the right in red, 
*Added: The Items.MatchItemCount property retrieves the number of items that match the filter. If negative it indicates that a filter is applied, and its absolute value minus 1 specifies the count of items that match the filter criteria. If zero, no items are loaded into the control, and so no filter is applied. If positive, it indicates the total number of items within the control equivalent with the Items.ItemCount property. 
*Added: Items.VisibleItemCount property returns negative value, if the control has a filter applied. The negative value represents a formula of -( count + 1 ), where count indicates the number of matching items. For instance, if the Items.VisibleItemCount property returns -1, the count of matching items is 0, if -2, 1 matching item, if -3, 2 matching items, and so on.

19.0.0.1 Oct 07, 2019
*NEW:   Radical Improvements for control's Filter-Prompt-Bar
*Added: The FilterBarPromptVisible property of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, specifies how the control's filter bar is displayed and behave. Previously, the FilterBarPromptVisible property was of Boolean type. By default, FilterBarPromptVisible property is exFilterBarHidden, so no filter bar is shown. Even so, the control's filter bar is shown as before, as soon as the user selects a value from the control's filter list, so a filter is applied. The FilterBarVisibleEnum type includes several flags that can be combined together, as described bellow.
*Added: The exFilterBarPromptVisible, exFilterBarVisible, exFilterBarCaptionVisible flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, forces the control's filter-prompt, filter bar or filter bar description ( even empty ) to be shown.
*Added: The exFilterBarSingleLine flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, specifies that the filter bar's caption is shown on a single line, so <br> HTML tag or \r\n are not handled. By default, the control's filter description applies word wrapping. Can be combined to exFilterBarCompact to display a single-line filter bar. 
*Added: The exFilterBarToggle flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, specifies that the user can close the control's filter bar ( removes the control's filter ) by clicking the close button of the filter bar or by pressing the CTRL + F, while the control's filter bar is visible. If no filter bar is displayed, the user can display the control's filter bar by pressing the CTRL + F key. While the control's filter bar is visible the user can navigate though the list or control's filter bar using the ALT + Up/Down keys.
*Added: The exFilterBarShowCloseIfRequired flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, indicates that the close button of the control's filter bar is displayed only if the control has any currently filter applied. The Background(exFooterFilterBarButton) property on -1 hides permanently the close button of the control's filter bar. 
*Added: The exFilterBarShowCloseOnRight flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, specifies that the close button of the control's filter bar should be displayed on the right side. If the control's RightToLeft property is True, the close button of the control's filter bar would be automatically displayed on the left side.
*Added: The exFilterBarCompact flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, compacts the control's filter bar, so the filter-prompt will be displayed to the left, while the control's filter bar caption will be displayed to the right. This flag has effect only if combined with the exFilterBarPromptVisible. This flag can be combined with the exFilterBarSingleLine flag, so all filter bar will be displayed compact and on a single line.

18.1.1.6 Oct 02, 2019
*Added: The Items.ItemBar(exBarAlignPercentCaption) property supports any of the following values:
*Added: 0, 1 or 2 the percent caption is not clipped and it is aligned to the left, center or right side of the progress bar ( no clip ).
*Added: 3, 4 or 5 the percent caption of the progress bar gets clipped to the progress bar's client area, else the percent caption is aligned to the left, center or right side of the progress bar ( clip, inside ).
*Added: 6, 7 or 8 the percent caption of the progress bar is hidden if its size is less or equal with MinUnitWidth property, else if it does not fit the progress bar's client area, gets clipped or else fully aligned to left, center or right side of the progress bar. ( hide if min, clip if not fit, inside ).
*Added: 9, 10 or 11 the percent caption of the progress bar is hidden if it does not fit entirely into the progress bar's client area, else it is fully displayed aligned to the left, center or right side of the progress bar. ( hide if not fit, no clip, inside ).
*Added: 12, 13 or 14 the percent caption of the progress bar is displayed inside of the progress bar's client area if it fits entirely, else it is displayed outside of the progress bar aligned to the left, center or right. ( no clip, inside, outside ).
*Added: 16, 17, 18, the percent caption of the progress bar is displayed outside of the progress bar to the left or to the right. ( no clip, outside ). 

18.1.1.5 Sep 11, 2019
*Added: Miscellaneous changes for control's scrollbar-extension such as: contiguously scrolls the control's content line by line, or page by page ( if CTRL is pressed ) while the user keeps clicking the up/left top/right side of the thumb-extension, closes the scrollbar-extension as soon as the user presses ALT + F4, ALT + TAB, shows the scrollbar-extension only if effective mouse movement occurs, hides the scrollbar-extension as soon as the owner control loses the focus
*Added: Update the column's sort icon, so it won't be shown as distorted on DPI systems.
*Fixed: The "<%ww%>" format in the Level.Label property, may displays 53, instead 1-st week of the next year, if the Chart.WeekNumberAs property is exISO8601WeekNumber.
*Fixed: Can't paste the number from the clipboard on a cell with Editor.Numeric property on exInteger(-1)
*Fixed: The item's task-bar is not displayed when the bar is created during the AddItem event, and the control is populated using Items.AddItem(array) (AllowCellValueToItemBar, Column.Def(exCellValueToItemBarProperty), AddItem event)

18.1.1.4 Aug 23, 2019
*Added: Support for multiple-lines for column's caption (including Column.HTMLCaption) when it is vertically displayed ( Column.HeaderVertical property is True, control's HeaderSingleLine property is False )
*Fixed: The column's caption is not displayed if the control's font is "MS Sans Serif" and the Column.HeaderVertical property is True
*Fixed: The column's caption is not vertically aligned if it contains \r\n sequences ( EOL )
*Fixed: Prevents showing the column's caption vertically when it is displayed on control's GroupBy/Sort-bar. ( Column.HeaderVertical, SortBarVisible property )
*Fixed: The chart's vertical split bars show in black, if the chart's AllowSplitPane property is set on exNoSplitPane(0) at runtime.

18.1.1.3 Aug 05, 2019
*Added: FormatABC method formats the A,B,C values based on the giving expression and returns the result. For instance, FormatABC("dpi") returns a numeric value that indicates the display settings ( aspect ratio ).
*Added: Items.ItemMinHeight(0), Items.ItemMaxHeight(0) property changes the minimum, maximum height for all items.
*Fixed: Prevents resizing the item's height when the cursor hovers a bar in the chart section (ItemsAllowSizing property).
*Fixed: Unable to find an entry point named 'WLGVar4', when get_WordFromPoint propery is invoked (/NET and /WPF)
*Fixed: Sometimes the user can't drop data to a target control ( OLEDragDrop event is not fired, or fired for the source control, /COM version )

18.1.1.2 Jul 15, 2019
*NEW:   Multiple improvements for expression-like properties such as: ConditionalFormat.Expression, Column.FormatColumn, Items.FormatCell and so on
*Added: a `like` b binary-operator compares the string a against the pattern b. The pattern b may contain wild-characters such as *, ?, # or [] and can have multiple patterns separated by space character. In order to have the space, or any other wild-character inside the pattern, it has to be escaped, or in other words it should be preceded by a \ character. For instance "value like `F*e`" matches all strings that start with F and ends on e, or "value like `a* b*`? indicates any strings that start with a or b character.
*Added: The 0x or 0X sequence proceed the hexa-representation of a number, in properties that support expressions. For instance, "value = 0x100" specifies whether the value is 256 ( 0x100 in hexa-representation ) 
*Added: `hex` a unary-operator converts the giving string from hexa-representation to a numeric value, or converts the giving numeric value to hexa-representation. For instance, hex(`FF`) returns 255, while the hex(255) or hex(0xFF) returns the `FF` string. The hex(hex(`FFFFFFFF`)) always returns `FFFFFFFF` string, as the second hex call converts the giving string to a number, and the first hex call converts the returned number to string representation (hexa-representation). 
*Added: a `bitand`, `bitor`, `bitxor` b binary/bitwise-operator computes the AND/OR/XOR operation on bits of a and b, and returns the unsigned value. For instance, 0x01001000 bitand 0x10111000 returns 0x00001000, 0x01001000 bitor 0x10111000 returns 0x11111000, 0x01110010 bitxor 0x10101010 returns 0x11011000.
*Added: a `bitshift` b, binary/bitwise-operator shifts every bit of a value to the left if b is negative, or to the right if b is positive, for b times, and returns the unsigned value. For instance, 128 bitshift 1 returns 64 ( dividing by 2 ) or 128 bitshift (-1) returns 256 ( multiplying by 2 )
*Added: `bitnot` x unary/bitwise-operator flips every bit of x, and returns the unsigned value. For instance, bitnot(0x00FF0000) returns 0xFF00FFFF.

18.1.1.1 Jun 19, 2019
*NEW:   The Expression of the ConditionalFormat/ComputedField/FormatColumn supports %CS0, %CS1, ... and %CD0, %CD1, ... keywords which indicates the state of the cell ( Items.CellState property ), and cell's extra data ( Items.CellData property ) on the column with the index 0, 1, ... For instance, "%CS0" defines all checked items on the column with the index 0, or "not %CS1" defines all un-checked items in the column with the index 1. For instance, "%CD0 = `your user data`" specifies all cells whose CellData property is `your user data`
*Added: The ConditionalFormat.Expression, Items.FormatCell or Column.FormatColumn property supports %CS0, %CS1, ... and %CD0, %CD1, ... keywords which indicates the state of the cell ( Items.CellState property ), and cell's extra data ( Items.CellData property ) on the column with the index 0, 1, ...

18.1.1.0 May 27, 2019
*NEW:   ItemBarEx support, that allows referring multiple-bars, using expressions.
*Added: Items.ItemBarEx( Criteria, Property ) [= Value] property gets or sets the property's bar that matches the criteria. The Criteria and Value parameters could be a string expression that support predefined functions like itembar(property), cellcaption(column), cellvalue(column), cellstate(column), celldata(column) that specifies the property of the bar, the caption/value/state/user data of the specified cell. The property parameter should be a numeric expression that indicates a value of ItemBarProipertyEnum type. The column parameter should be an index that indicates the index of the column. Also, the Criteria and Value parameters support keywords such as itemdata, itemisselected, itemisfocused, itemlevel that returns the data of the item that hosts the bar, such as associated data, selection state of the item, focus state of the item and the level of the item ( 0 indicates a root item, 1, indicates the level of the first child of a root item, and so on ). Additionally, the Value parameter supports the "value" keyword that specifies the previously value of the referred bar. For instance: Items.ItemBarEx("lower(cellvalue(12)) = `france`", exBarsCount) returns the number of bars whose value on the column with the index 21 is France, or Items.ItemBarEx("(lower(cellvalue(12)) = `france`) and itembar(0) = `Task`", exBarsCount) counts the "Task" bars whose value on the column with the index 21 is France. For instance, Items.ItemBarEx("1", exBarMove) = -1 moves all bars one-day before, while Items.ItemBarEx("1", exBarMove) = 2 moves all bars 2-days after. For instance, the Items.ItemBarEx("itembar(257)", exBarMove) = 1, moves the selected bars one 1-day after. For instance, Items.ItemBarEx("(lower(cellvalue(12)) = `france`) and itembar(0) = `Task`", exBarEnd) = "value + 1", resizes all "Task" bars whose value on the column with the index 21 is France. The Items.ItemBarEx("itembar(257)", exBarCaption) = "proper(cellcaption(12))" changes the caption for all selected bars to be the caption being shown on the column with the index 12.
*Added: The Background(exForeColorFilter) and Background(exBackColorFilter) applies the foreground / background colors to the drop down filter edit field ( pattern, date, filter on type, and so on )

*Fixed: The Today lines in the chart section of the control may be shown doubled, when user scrolls vertical the control using the arrows. 

18.1.0.5 Mar 13, 2019
*Added: The ControlID parameter of the Items.InsertControlItem / Editor.UserEditor supports the "A2X:" prefix, which specifies a different method to host the ActiveX control. This could be useful, for older ActiveX non-dual objects, that fails to be shown the normal way. For instance, the Items.InsertControlItem(, "A2X:TOC24.Toc24Ctrl.1", "") inserts the "Ter Edit OCX, V24" from Sub Systems, Inc. 
*Fixed: Prevents editing the focused cell, if pressing any key combination of CTRL key ( for instance, CTRL + C ), or SHIFT + Arrow/PgUp/PgDn/Home/End while SingleSel property is False ( select multiple items ), while the control's AutoEdit property is True.

In other words, if the value on the current item is not matching the filter, the control check the parent item's value and so on. If any match, the current item is included. 
*Added: The ItemFromPoint( 0, -1, ColIndex) property returns the number of rows, between current cursor position and the the last fully-visible item of the control. The ItemFromPoint( 0, -1, ColIndex) property returns a positive value only, if the cursor hovers empty-portion of the control ( right after the last item ). The ColIndex parameter returns the index of the column from the cursor, while the cursor hovers the items section of the control.
*Fixed: Updates the vertical scroll bar, once the control inserts new items ( AddItem event is fired ), if the user clicks the bottom-empty portion of the control, while the Chart.AllowCreateBar property is exCreateBarAuto

*Added: The Key parameter of the Chart.RemoveTimeZone method supports a pattern with wild characters as *,?,# or [], if the Key starts with "<" and ends on ">" aka "<Z*>" which indicates all date-time zones with the key Z or starts on Z. If the Key parameter specifies a pattern, it removes all date-time zones, with the key that matches the giving pattern. For instance, the Chart.RemoveTimeZone("<*>") removes/clear all date-time zones.
*Added: Allow moving a bar from an item to another, by not changing the bar's start / end margins if the Items.ItemBar(exBarCanMove) property is False and Items.ItemBar(exBarCanMoveToAnother) property is True.

*Added: Updates new UI elements to control's VisualDesign tool
*Fixed: Prevents partially showing the chart's vertical split bar, when user resizes the chart to the right ( ChartOnLeft or RightToLeft property is False ), or to the left ( ChartOnLeft or RightToLeft property is True )

18.0.0.2 Apr 09, 2018
*Added: Improves performance to display the chart while it shows links. This is applicable to move / resize tasks, adding links, or scrolling the chart's content ( Chart.ShowLinks property )
*Fixed: The control's chart shows wrong links while vertical scrolling, after the user changes the item position by drag and drop using the AutoDrag property.
*Fixed: The links on the first pages are not shown on the Print and Print Preview, if the control displays locked items ( ShowLockedItems property is True )
*Fixed: The Print and Print Preview is slow if the chart displays thousand of links.
*Fixed: The Copy/CopyTo methods shows links on a different position, if the control displays locked items ( ShowLockedItems property is True )

18.0.0.1 Mar 21, 2018
*NEW:   Multiple-Views Support for the chart portion of the control.
*Added: Chart.AllowSplitPane property specifies whether the user can split the chart portion of the control, in one or multiple views. For instance, Chart.AllowSplitPane property on exAllowTwoSplitPane, indicates that the user can split the chart portion of the control in three views ( the master view plus two additional views ) 
*Added: OnResizeControlEnum.exDisableSplitPane value specifies whether the pane's splitter is disabled or enabled ie user can't resize / split the chart's panel in multiple views.
*Added: ChartStartChanging(exSplitPaneChange) / ChartEndChanging(exSplitPaneChange) events notify that the user splits/resizes the chart's panel into multiple-views.

17.2.0.5 Mar 14, 2018
*Added: The Items.AddLink method allows adding links at runtime, even if the Items.ItemBar(exBarCanStartLink), Items.ItemBar(exBarCanEndLink) or Items.ItemBar(exBarCanBeLinked) property is False.
*Fixed: The links between between bars outside of the chart's client area may be shown to a different location.

17.2.0.4 Mar 05, 2017
*Added: Ability to add links programmatically knowing the keys of the tasks/bars only. The StartItem or/and EndItem parameters of the Items.AddLink method can be 0, which indicates that the StartBarKey or/and EndBarKey parameters can indicates an unique bar key or the first occurrence of giving pattern, if the StartBarKey or/and EndBarKey parameters are of "<pattern>" type, where the pattern can include any wild characters as *,?,# or []. The pattern may include a space which divides multiple patterns for matching. For instance "<A* *K>" indicates the first task/bar with its key starting with A or ends on K
*Added: The Items.ItemBar(0,Key,Property), returns the value of the giving property for the first bar found that matches the key. For instance, Debug.Print(Items.ItemBar(0,"<K*>",exBarStart)) prints an empty-value if no bar with the key starting with K is found, else it returns the starting date-time of the first bar found in the control's data, with the bar's key beginning with K.
*Fixed: The Column.SortOrder or "singlesort", "multiplesort" fields on Layout property does not perform any sorting, if the control's SortOnClick property is exNoSort.
*Fixed: The column's header is shown at different location if the user clicks it, while the Column.Def(exHeaderPaddingLeft) or/and Column.Def(exHeaderPaddingRight) property is not-zero

17.2.0.3 Feb 21, 2018
*Added: The Tab key focuses and edits the next visible column, SHIFT + Tab, focuses and edits the previously visible column (AutoEdit property is True). The Tab navigate through the visible columns of the control, but do not advance to the next / prev row, as the Left / Right key do.
*Added: Improves the time to add new items, using the Items.InsertItem(,,,) or Items.AddItem(), when value/caption parameter is missing.
*Fixed: The Column.AutoWidth property ignores the Column.Def(exCellPaddingLeft) and Column.Def(exCellPaddingRight). The same if the user double-clicks the space between two columns in the header section.
*Fixed: The Items.CellValue property returns the currently value during ValidateValue event, if previously the cell's value is empty ( VT_EMPTY )

17.2.0.2 Feb 09, 2018
*NEW:   Ability to resize at runtime the control's overview panel
*Added: OverviewVisibleEnum.exOverviewSplitter flag specifies whether the control displays an horizontal splitter that can be used to resize the overview part at runtime, by click and dragging. For instance, the Chart.OverviewVisible = OverviewVisibleEnum.exOverviewShowAllVisible or OverviewVisibleEnum.exOverviewSplitter, displays the overview for all visible bars, and let the user resizes the control's overview part by clicking its splitter and ragging to a new position.
*Added: OnResizeControlEnum.exDisableOverview flag disables the overview's splitter. For instance, the OnResizeControl = OnResizeControlEnum.exDisableOverview disables the control's overview, so the user can not resize the overview at runtime, by clicking and dragging.
*Added: ChartStartChanging(exOSplitterChange) / ChartEndChanging(exOSplitterChange) events notify that the user resizes the control's overview part of the control.

17.2.0.1 Jan 22, 2018

*Added: OverviewVisibleEnum.exOverviewShowSelMargins, displays the selection limits ( first/last visible date in the chart)

17.1.0.3 Jan 10, 2018
*Added: The ColumnsFloatBarVisible property of ColumnsFloatBarVisibleEnum type, retrieves or sets a value that indicates whether the the columns float bar is visible or hidden. Currently, the Columns float bar can display hidden columns or groupable columns ( Column.AllowGroupBy property on True ). Previously, the ColumnsFloatBarVisible property was of Boolean type, and displays the hidden columns only, with the Column.AllowDragging propertyon True. For instance, if the ColumnsFloatBarVisible property is exColumnsFloatBarVisibleIncludeGroupByColumns(1), the Columns float bar displays all columns that are not displayed by the control's sort bar ( SortBarVisible property ), and the Column.AllowDragging and AllowGroupBy properties are True )
*Added: The Chart.ShowCollapsedBars property indicates whether the collapsed items displays their recursively child bars. Previously, only direct child bars were included.
*Added: Allows selecting collapsed bars, when user selects bars using the right-click and dragging.
*Added: InsideZooms.Contains(DateTime) property returns the InsideZoom object that contains the specified date-time
*Fixed: The chart scrolls one time-unit to the right, if the user short clicks any bar, while AutoDrag property is exAutoDragScroll.

17.1.0.2 Dec 20, 2017
*Added: Prevents resizing the inner-controls, when the user vertically scrolls the control, by clipping the inner-controls to the control's list part, instead shrinking to the top header (Items.InsertControlItem method, _USETOPWINDOW )
*Fixed: The Items.SchedulePDM method may return 0, but still no arrangement is performed on the bars (the chart includes links with negative lags, Items.Link(exLinkPDMWorkingDelay property, Items.Link(exLinkPDMWorkingDelay) property, Items.SchedulePDM method ))
*Fixed: The Items.SchedulePDM method may return 0 or 2 ( valid layout ), if a bar is linked/connected to one of it's summary bar.)
*Fixed: The Items.SchedulePDM method may return 0, for different connections, even the layout/arrangement is not possible.)
*Fixed: The Items.SchedulePDM method returns -4 or -8, and can't display the critical path for not-connected children of the summary bars, if the Items.SchedulePDM method is called on the summary bar itself.)

17.1.0.1 Dec 11, 2017
*NEW:   Radical improvements for Items.SchedulePDM method
*Added: Performs optimizations of bars that starts the scheduling, using the Items.SchedulePDM method for best fit, rather than having the same ending margin)
*Added: In project management, a critical path is the sequence of project network activities which add up to the longest overall duration, regardless if that longest duration has float or not. Previously, the control gets the critical path as a linked path, while currently, the critical path may include also other nodes/activities that can make the project longer.)
*Added: Defines the critical path, when the chart links child / summary bars (Items.DefSchedulePDM(exPDMCriticalPathBarColor) property, Items.SchedulePDM method, Items.DefineSummaryBars method) )
*Added: The Items.DefSchedulePDM(exPDMCriticalPathLinkColor) property specifies the color for links that are part of the current critical path, including links between child / summary-bars, even if the summary-bar is not actually part of the path )
*Added: The Items.ItemBar(exBarCriticalPath) property returns the position of the bar within the critical path if positive, else 0 (long expression). Previously, the Items.ItemBar(exBarCriticalPath) property returns a boolean expression, that specifies whether the bar is part of the critical path. )
*Fixed: The application hangs if moving a summary bar with child bars that use Items.ItemNonworkingUnits and Items.ItemBar(exBarKeepWorkingCount) property, while chart's unit-scale is exYear.

17.0.0.3 Nov 27, 2017
*Added: Multiple improvements for moving the summary-bar.
*Added: Items.ItemBar(,,exBarMoveStart) property retrieves or sets ( by preserving the bar's length/duration ) a value that indicates the start of the bar. This property returns the same value as Items.ItemBar(,,exBarStart) property. If used to change the starting point of the bar, the Items.ItemBar(,,exBarMoveStart) property moves the bar, while the Items.ItemBar(,,exBarStart) property resizes the bar, or in other words, the exBarMoveStart moves the starting point of the bar, by preserving the bar's length/duration. For instance, this property can be associated with a column of  drop down calendar type, so once the user changes the date in the calendar, the associated bar is moved to start at selected date. 
*Added: Items.ItemBar(,,exBarMoveEnd) property retrieves or sets ( by preserving the bar's length/duration ) a value that indicates the end of the bar. This property returns the same value as Items.ItemBar(,,exBarEnd) property. If used to change the ending point of the bar, the Items.ItemBar(,,exBarMoveEnd) property moves the bar, while the Items.ItemBar(,,exBarEnd) property resizes the bar, or in other words, the exBarMoveEnd moves the ending point of the bar, by preserving the bar's length/duration. For instance, this property can be associated with a column of  drop down calendar type, so once the user changes the date in the calendar, the associated bar is moved to end at selected date. 
*Added: Items.ItemBar(,,exBarMoveEndInclusive) property retrieves or sets ( by preserving the bar's length/duration ) a value that indicates the inclusive ending point of the bar. Generally, the inclusive ending point of the bar is exBarEnd - 1. This property returns the same value as Items.ItemBar(,,exBarEndInclusive) property. If used to change the inclusive ending point of the bar, the Items.ItemBar(,,exBarMoveEndInclusive) property moves the bar, while the Items.ItemBar(,,exBarEndInclusive) property resizes the bar, or in other words, the exBarMoveEndInclusive moves the inclusive ending point of the bar, by preserving the bar's length/duration. For instance, this property can be associated with a column of  drop down calendar type, so once the user changes the date in the calendar, the associated bar is moved to end at selected date. 
*Fixed: Ensures that the bar's percent caption fits the bar's client area, while the ItemBar(exBarAlignPercentCaption) is RightAlignment ( default ).

17.0.0.2 Nov 17, 2017
*Added: The Handle parameter of Images method can be a string that specifies the ICO file to be loaded. The ICO file format is an image file format for computer icons in Microsoft Windows. ICO files contain one or more small images at multiple sizes and color depths, such that they may be scaled appropriately. For instance, Images("e:\working\sync.ico") method  adds the sync.ico file to the control's Images collection.
*Added: The Items.ItemBar(exBarWorkingCount) property is hourly computed, if the Chart.NonworkingHours property is not zero. Previously, The Items.ItemBar(exBarWorkingCount) property is wrongly computed if the Chart. UnitScale property is exWeek, exMonth or exYear
*Fixed: Prevents one left-scroll of the chart, if the user simple clicks the chart, while AutoDrag property is AutoDragScroll
*Fixed: Calling the SaveXML("sample.xml") method on VB.NET for /NET or /WPF assembly, does not create / save the sample.xml file, instead you can use SaveXML(CType("sample.xml", Object)
*Fixed: Click and wait the locked area of the control starts scrolling up or down the control, while SingleSel property is false
*Fixed: Click and drag or double click the empty area of the control, while SingleSel property is false, select the last item

17.0.0.1 Oct 30, 2017
*Added: DPI-Aware Support
*NEW:   Support for EBN 1004 version ( DPI-Aware support ).
*Added: The exClientExt attribute of the EBN/BackgroundExt/BackgroundExtValue supports DPI values, if the number is followed by a D character. For instance, if the DPI scaling is 100%, the 16d is 16, while for a 150% DPI scaling, the 16d is 24. In other words, "top[4,back=RGB(0,0,255)]", draws a blue line on the top side of the object's background, of 4-pixels wide, no matter of DPI scaling, while "top[4D,back=RGB(0,0,255)]", draws the line of 4-pixels wide if DPI scaling is 100%, or 6-pixels wide if DPI scaling is 150% )
*Added: The coordinates of the CP clause of the Skin parameter of VisualAppearance.Add method can be followed by a D character, which indicates the value according to the current DPI settings. For instance, "CP:1 -2 -2 2 2", copies the EBN with the identifier 1, and displays it on a 2-pixels wider rectangle no matter of the DPI settings, while "CP:1 -2D -2D 2D 2D" displays it on a 2-pixels wider rectangle if DPI settings is 100%, and on on a 3-pixels wider rectangle if DPI settings is 150%.
*Added: The expression properties support `dpi`, `dpix` and `dpiy` constants that returns the current DPI setting on x/y scale. For instance, the "value * dpi" returns the value if the DPI setting is 100%, or value * 1.5 in case, the DPI setting is 150%
*Fixed: Prevents scrolling the chart's panel ( AutoDrag property ), while AllowZoomOnFly panel is shown.

16.0.0.3 Oct 16, 2017
*Added: The Bar.FormatHistogramValues property specifies the format to show bar's value in the histogram. 
*Added: `MIN` and `MAX` binary-operators to get the MIN and MAX value. For instance, the expression `value MIN 10 MAX 100` returns always a value between 10 and 100.
*Added: `sin`, `asin`, `cos`, `acos` unary-operators to get the associated trigonometric functions. For instance `2 * asin(1)` returns the value of PI
*Added: `sqrt` unary-operator returns the square root of the element, so sqrt(81) returns 9, as 9^2 is 81
*Added: date(`now`) unary-operator returns the current date-time ( as double ), while the date(``) returns the current date ( no time included )
*Fixed: The task/bar on the background is selected, moved or resized, in case it intersects other task/bar(s) when the user clicks the intersection. The fix is applied to Chart.BarFromPoint, Items.ItemBar(exBarToolTip), Items.ItemBar(exBarSelected) properties.
*Fixed: Prevents selecting tasks/bars that does not intersect the dragging rectangle, when the user right-clicks the control and drag to select multiple tasks/bars.

16.0.0.2 Oct 11, 2017
*Added: Shows the control's Notes in the Print and Print-Preview ( using the Exontrol's eXPrint component )

*Fixed: The AllowAutoDrag event is not fired ( /WPF version only )

16.0.0.1 Sep 29, 2017
*NEW:   Support for EBN 1003 version.
*Added: EBN 1003 implements Colorable Region Support which defines a portion/region of the EBN object where the color of the EBN is applied. For instance, at runtime the identifier 0x1FF0000 applies blue color to all colorable parts that compose the EBN object. The EBN color is not applied to not-colorable portions of the EBNs.
*Added: The Items.ItemBar(,,ItemBarEnum.exBarBackgroundExtInflate) property increases or decreases the margins of the portion where the exBarBackgroundExt is applied/shown. By default, the exBarBackgroundExtInflate property is 0, which indicates that the bar's client area is the portion where the exBarBackgroundExt is applied. For instance, "-10,0,10,0" enlarges the bar's margins by 10 pixels, to left and right, and so the exBarBackgroundExt will looks wider. If the exBarBackgroundExtInflate property is of numeric type, it specifies the range to increases or decreases all the margins. The exBarBackgroundExt adds unlimited options to show any HTML text, images, colors, EBNs, patterns, frames anywhere on the bar's background. Ability to draw additional EBN/Color/Text/Patterns/Images on the bar, using the EBN String Format (create and run at runtime EBN objects)
*Added: Chart.WeekNumberAs property specifies the week number is displayed. By default, the WeekNumberAs property is exSimpleWeekNumber, which indicates that the first week starts on January 1st of a given year, week n+1 starts 7 days after week n. If WeekNumberAs property is exISO8601WeekNumber, it indicates that the week number is displayed according to the ISO8601 standard, which specifies that the first week of the year is the one that includes the January the 4th ( default ). Previously, the week number is displayed based on the value of the Chart.FirstWeekDay property.
*Fixed: Prevents showing the control's view in design mode, while running on FORTH system ( /COM version )
*Fixed: The control's BackColorAlternate is shown incorrectly, after calling the Items.RemoveAllItems or Columns.Clear method

15.1.0.5 Sep 20, 2017
*NEW:   The Expression of the ConditionalFormat/ComputedField/FormatColumn supports %C0, %C1, .... which indicates the caption of the cell as displayed, while the %0, %1, gets the value of the cell. The cell's value may be different than what the cell  displays as a string. For instance, let's say a cell display HTML format. The %0 returns the html format including the HTML tags, while %C0 returns the cell's content as string without HTML tags.
*Added: The Items.FormatCell or Column.FormatColumn property supports %C0, %C1, ... which indicates the content of the cell as string, on the column with the index 0, 1, and so on... For instance the, "%C0 + %C1" concatenates the first two cells, which is similar with a computed field per cell. In other words, you can have computed field per cells, using the Items.FormatCell, not only using the Column.ComputedField property which is applied to the entire column.
*Fixed: The pictures of a disabled item are not visible or shown at a different position, while the cursor hovers the item. 
*Fixed: Resizes the locked columns to the left, while RightToLeft property is True (CountLockedColumns property).
*Fixed: Closes the control's drag and drop image when user drops data to any other control. For instance, a MessageBox during the target's OLEDragDrop event will keep showing the control's drag and drop picture ( Background(exDragDropAfter) property, /COM version )

15.1.0.4 Sep 12, 2017
*Added: lfind binary-operator for format/expression. The a lfind b searches the first occurrence of the string b within string a, and returns -1 if not found, or the position of the result ( zero-index ). For instance, `ABCABC` lfind `D` returns -1, while  `ABCABC` lfind `C` returns 2.
*Added: rfind binary-operator for format/expression. The a rfind b searches the last occurrence of the string b within string a, and returns -1 if not found, or the position of the result ( zero-index ). For instance, `ABCABC` rfind `D` returns -1, while  `ABCABC` rfind `C` returns 5.
*Added: reverse unary-operator for format/expression. The reverse(a) reverses the order of the characters in the string a, For instance, the reverse("Mihai") returns "iahiM"
*Added: The Edit event is fired when the user clicks or presses the space key on a cell of EditTypeEnum.CheckValueType type. You can prevent changing the cell's value/state by setting the Cancel parameter of Edit event on True.

15.1.0.3 Sep 04, 2017
*NEW:   Display a placeholder for missing icons, images in HTML captions.
*Added: The Key parameter of the HTMLPicture property is case insensitive, so you can display the picture using the insensitive key. For instance, <img>picA</img> is equivalent with <img>pica</img>, or <img>PICA</img> and so on.
*Added: The HTML caption shows a missing image placeholder for images whose source is missing. The missing placeholder displays the index of the icon being missing, or the key of the HTML picture being missing. 
*Fixed: Prevents changing the value of the cell's checkbox editor ( CheckValueType editor ), if the user presses the SPACE key, when the Editor.Locked property is True ( locked editor )

15.1.0.2 Aug 09, 2017
*Added: The FilterPromptEnum.exFilterPromptStartWith or exFilterPromptEndWith is not applied for all columns ( FilterBarPromptColumns property is -1 )
*Fixed: Prevents horizontal scrolling the control's content if the EnsureVisibleColumn is called for any locked column ( CountLockedColumns property ).
*Fixed: Prevents horizontal scrolling the control's content if the user clicks a locked column ( CountLockedColumns property ).
*Fixed: An ICO file shows as 18x18 instead of 16x16 pixels if it is loaded using the HTMLPicture method.
*Fixed: The a mod b expression fails, if b is zero or negative.
*Fixed: The a mid b expression fails, if b expression is greater than the length of the a

15.1.0.1 July 31, 2017
*NEW:   Unlimited options to show any HTML text, images, colors, EBNs, patterns, frames anywhere on the bar's background. Ability to draw additional EBN/Color/Text/Patterns/Images on the bar, using the EBN String Format (create and run at runtime EBN objects)
*Added: Items.ItemBar(exBarBackgroundExt) property indicates additional colors, text, patterns, images that can be displayed on the bar's background using the EBN string format. For instance, Items.ItemBar(exBarBackgroundExt) = "bottom[4,back=RGB(0,0,0)],top[4,back=RGB(0,0,0)]" draws a 4-pixels wide line aligned to the top and bottom sides of the bar. The Items.ItemBar(exBarBackgroundExt) = "bottom[10%+12,back=RGB(255,0,0),text=`<img>alert</img><b>Alert!`,align=0x11]" displays the alert picture and the Alert! caption as bold, on the RED background, on the bottom portion of the bar (10%+12 pixels-wide from the object's client area). 
*Added: Items.ItemBar(exBarBackgroundExtFlags) property Specifies how the exBarBackgroundExt is applied on the bar's background, like from or back, bar or full background.
*Added: The Version property for /NET or /WPF version returns more information about the component/assembly/file.

15.0.0.3 July 21, 2017
*Added: Ability to filter programmatically for blank/empty items, if the Column.Filter property is "" ( empty string ), or include empty values between | characters, while Column.FilterType property is exFilter. For instance, Column.Filter property on "|Item1|Item2" specifies to filter the list for blank/empty items, Item1 or Item2, while Column.Filter property on "" indicates to include just the blank/empty items (Column.FilterType property is exFilter)
*Added: The Click event occurs ONLY if the user presses and releases the left mouse button on the same location, inside the control. If any mouse movement is detected between press/release no Click event is fired. Previously, the Click event is fired once the user releases the left mouse button over the control. You can use the MouseUp(1) event to notify your application once the user releases the left mouse button within the control.
*Added: The RClick event occurs ONLY if the user presses and releases the right mouse button on the same location, inside the control. If any mouse movement is detected between press/release no RClick event is fired. Previously, the RClick event is fired once the user releases the right mouse button over the control. You can use the MouseUp(2) event to notify your application once the user releases the right mouse button within the control.

*Added: The Editor.Mask property supports "invalid=value" ( in forth part of the Imput-Mask ), which indicates the html message to be displayed when the user enters an inappropriate value for the field. If the control's CauseValidateValue property is not exNoValidate and value of the invalid keyword is not empty, the field is keep opened until the user enters an appropriate value ( ValidateValue event is failed with the Cancel parameter on True ). If the value is single space, no message is displayed and the field is keep opened while the value is inappropriate. For instance, "!(999) 000 0000;;;invalid=The value you entered isn't appropriate for the input mask <b>'<%mask%>'</b> specified for this field." displays the message "The value you entered isn't appropriate for the input mask '...' specified for this field." tooltip once the user leaves the field and it is not-valid ( for instance, the field includes entities required and uncompleted ). The <%mask%> keyword in value, substitute the current mask of the field, while the <%value%> keyword substitutes the current value ( including the literals ).

*Added: The first part (pattern) is mandatory. It includes the mask characters or string (series of characters) along with placeholders and literal data such as, parentheses, periods, and hyphens. Characters enclosed in double quotation ("" or ``) marks will be displayed literally. If this part should display/use the  semicolon (;) character is should be included between double quotation ("" or ``) characters or as \; ( escape ). Currently, the special characters separated by space are: # 0 9 x X A a L ? & C > < * { } , [ ] - \    
*Added: The second part is optional and refers to the embedded mask characters and how they are stored within the field. If the second part is set to 0 ( default ), all characters are stored with the data, and if it is set to 1, the literals are stored, not including the masking/placeholder characters, if 2, just typed characters are stored, if 3, optional, required, editable and escaped entities are included (no double quoted text is included).
*Added: The third part of the input mask is also optional and indicates a single character or space that is used as a placeholder. By default, the field uses the underscore (_). If you want to use another character, enter it in the third part of your mask. Only the first character is considered. If this part should display/use the  semicolon (;) character is should be \; ( escape )
*Added: The forth part of the input, indicates a list of options that can be applied to input mask, separated by comma(,) character as follow: float,grouping,decimal,negative,digits,password,right,readonly,inserttype,overtype,nocontext,beep,warning,select,empty,validate

*NEW:   The 'in' function in computing formulas increases significantly the time to evaluate it. For instance, if you have the formula such us 'value = 1 or value = 2 or value = 22 or value = 45 or value = 12', ... you can have the 'value in (1, 2, 22, 45, 12)'. In other words, if the set contains about 1000 elements for instance, the evaluator takes max 8 checking to determine if the specified value fits the set, else requires 1000 checking is required to verify each or condition in the sequence.
*NEW:   The 'switch' function similar with 'in' function retrieves the value being found in the collection, or a default value if the element is not found. The first element in the collection is the result being returned by 'switch' function when the value is not found in the collection, else the 'switch' returns the value itself. All elements in the collection MUST be constant values. For instance, the "value switch ('not found', 11, 23, 45, 129, 123,99)" means that if the value is 33, the 'not found' string is returned, while if the value is 45, the switch returns 45.
*NEW:   The 'case()' function includes any number of case instances. A 'case' instance may contains a statement that is executed once the value is found in the 'case' collection. The 'case' unary operator gets the value being specified by respective statement or the value itself. For instance, the 'int(value) case (1 : value + 1 ; 2 : value * 2)' specifies that if the value is 1 the statement returns 2, while if the value is 2, the statement returns 4, and for any other value it returns the value itself.  Also the 'case()' can be used with 'switch' as for instance "%0 switch ('not found',11,22,33,44,55) case (11 : %0 + %1 ; 22 : %1 * 1.19; 33 : len(str(%0)))" indicates that if the value in the column 0 is 11, the result will be the sum between first column and second column, else if the value is 22 the result is the second column value multiplied by 1.19, else if the value is 33 the return is the length of the value in the first cell, if the value is 44 or 55, the result is 44 or 55, while for any other value the result will be 'not found'. The 'in', 'switch' and 'case()' increases significantly the speed to evaluate constant values instead using 'and', 'or' operators to build complicated formulas that could be time consuming.

The elements of the collection should be constants. The 'in' function is available for properties such us: Bar.ShowHistogramValues, Chart.CondInsideZoom, Column.ComputedField, Column.FormatColumn, ConditionalFormat.Expression, Level.FormatLabel, Items.ItemNonworkingUnits
*Fixed: The Items.RemoveAllItems method releases the occupied memory too.
*Fixed: The ItemBar(exBarWorkingCount) property never returns if the ItemNonWorkingUnit property indicates a non-repetitive formula. For instance, shortdate(value) = #7/14/2009#
