22.0.0.1 Jun 05, 2024 *NEW: The ex-HTML tags, including fgcolor, bgcolor, gra, out, sha, solidline, and dotline, now support 150 named colors, such as <fgcolor red>, as well as RGB format specifications like <fgcolor rgb(255,0,0)>. This enhancement offers more flexibility in defining colors within ex-HTML tags *Added: The `format` operator of expression properties supports formatting the date values, using d, dd, ddd, ddd (day of the month as digits, with or without leading zeros, abbreviated day of the week, day of the week as specified by the current locale ), m, mm, mmm, mmmm (month as digits, with or without leading zeros, abbreviated month, month as specified by the current locale), y, yy, yyy, yyyy (year represented only by the last digits, by a full four or five digits, depending on the calendar used) literals. For instance, the "date(value) format `mmm d, yyyy`" gets the value in MMM d, YYYY format using the current locale, such as "Jan 12, 2023" *Added: The ExecuteTemplate() method can return the value of a variable. For instance, the eXSurface's PointToPosition method uses variables by reference which is not supported in PowerBuilder. For that you can use a code like ExecuteTemplate("dim x,y;x=-1;y=-1;PointToPosition(x,y);x") that returns the x-position (surface's coordinates) of the current mouse pointer. In the same manner you can use ExecuteTemplate("dim x,y;x=-1;y=-1;PointToPosition(x,y);y") to return the y-position. 21.0.0.3 Aug 07, 2023 *Added: The control's tooltip is shown when the cursor hovers it no matter if the window that hosts the control is activated *Added: The ItemCaption(exSetupPrinter) property changes the caption for the "Printer..." button within the page-setup dialog *Added: The <solidline> and <dotline> HTML tags support color in RGB format using the <solidline RRGGBB> or <dotline RRGGBB> syntax, which indicates the color to show the solid or dotted line 21.0.0.2 Feb 22, 2023 *Added: Update the samples to support x64 configuration (/COM version) *Fixed: No control frame is shown in design-mode under MS Excel's spreadsheet *Fixed: The AttachTemplate method fails if using "handle" keyword on x64 version 21.0.0.1 Dec 01, 2022 *NEW: Ability to specify the size to show the icons within the control *Added: ImageSize property specifies the size of the control' icons. By default, the ImageSize property is 16. The control's Images collection is cleared if the ImageSize property is changed, so it is recommended to set the ImageSize property before calling the Images method. *Added: ToolBarFont property specifies the font to display the control's toolbar. 20.0.0.2 Jul 11, 2022 *Added: PowerBuilder 21.0 sample *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: A GPF may occur on closing the form/window/dialog if one or more events are handled by AttachTemplate method 20.0.0.1 Feb 23, 2022 *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 19.0.0.2 Jun 16, 2021 *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: Improves the conversion of the string to date, while using Regional settings (Windows System) for date like ddd.dd.mm.yyyy (Su.15.02.2021) 19.0.0.1 Mar 24, 2021 *Added: Sets or gets the control's Font property in design mode, for the /NET version *Fixed: The PageFrameColor property of the /NET version are not serialized once the user changes in design mode *Fixed: The PageFrameColor property 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 18.0.0.1 Feb 17, 2021 *Added: ExPrint.pdf (include the control's documentation in PDF format) *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: Any expression that includes the "in" operator fails. 17.0.0.1 May 13, 2019 *Added: lpad keyword (available for properties that support expressions) , as a lpad b, pads the value of a to the left with b padding pattern. For instance, FormatColumn = "((1 apos ``) lpad `0000`) + `. ` + value" displays the cell's content including the position of the row, padded to left with 4-zero (if required) *Added: rpad keyword (available for properties that support expressions), as a rpad b, pads the value of a to the right with b padding pattern. For instance, 12 lpad "____" generates the string "12__". *Added: concat keyword (available for properties that support expressions), as a concat b concatenates the a (as string) for b times. For instance, "x" concat 5, generates the string "xxxxx" 16.0.0.1 Sep 27, 2018 *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. 15.0.0.2 Jul 30, 2018 *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: PreviewState property returns or sets the visual state of preview mainframe at runtime. For instance, you can call the PreviewState property on exPreviewStateMaximized, and the Print and Print Preview will be shown maximized. *Fixed: Disables UI changes on the control being printed, while the input box "The number of pages being loaded is: <%count%>. Do you want to continue?" is displayed by the Print and Print Preview control. 15.0.0.1 Apr 11, 2018 *NEW: Ability to display differentiate captions / extra captions on different pages *Added: The Caption property and the Caption parameter of the ExtraCaption method supports expressions, that can defines the HTML caption of each page based on different fields such as index of the page, total number of pages, the index of the object being printed / previewed, the index of the page relative to the object being printed, and the number of relative pages. If the Caption's expression is not valid, the Caption itself is displayed as HTML, be replacing the <%page%> and <%count%> fields with the current page, and number of pages. The Caption property / parameter supports the following keywords: object (indicates the index of the object being printed), opages ( defines the number of pages the current object is being previewed / printed ), opage ( indicates the relative-index of the page being printed / previewed ), pages ( defines the total number of pages being previewed / printed ) and page ( which specifies the index of the current page, from the total number of pages ). The object, opages and opage fields are useful in case you are printing multiple-objects at the same time, using the PrintExts method. For instance, PrintExts = Array(Grid1, Grid2) specifies that two controls should be sent to the printer, and in this case the object will indicate 0 for the Grid1, and 1 for the Grid2. For instance, Caption = "`<b>` + ( object array (`<s>first-grid`,`<i>second-grid`) )" defines an expression-caption that displays the caption "first-grid" in bold and strikeout, for the first object of the PrintExts, and displays the "second-grid" in bold and italic, for the second object of the PrintExts method. For instance, ExtraCaption("logo","page mod 2 ? `` : `<img>logo</img>`") adds a logo picture on every second-page. 14.2.0.3 Mar 21, 2018 *Fixed: The PagesCount property through "Additional information: Input string was not in a correct format." exception for the /NET version *Fixed: The UILimitPagesCount property has no effect, if changing to a different value than 100. *Fixed: Cant' use the PrintExts property to print multiple objects on x64 machine ( /NET or /WPF version ) *Fixed: Calling the PrintExt/PrintExts property multiple times, appends pages to the current print and print-preview document. 14.2.0.2 Feb 28, 2018 *Added: The PreviewSettings(exPreviewAllowDragScroll) property specifies whether the user can scroll pages by clicking and dragging the left mouse button. Allow scrolling the workspace by clicking anywhere on the preview and dragging up, down, left or right. By default, the PreviewSettings(exPreviewAllowDragScroll) property is True. Set on False to disable this feature. (touch scroll) *Added: The PreviewSettings(exPreviewAllowWheelScroll) property indicates whether the user can scroll pages by rotating the mouse wheel. By default, the PreviewSettings(exPreviewAllowWheelScroll) property is True. Set on False to disable this feature. (mouse-wheel support) *Added: The PreviewSettings(exPreviewAllowUnprintPage) property specifies whether the user can select/unselect pages/area using the right mouse button (CTRL key), to prevent them from printing. Using the exPreviewAllowUnprintPage feature you can select a portion of the page to be sent only sent to the printer, or you can select or unselect the entire page, by right clicking the page while the CTRL key is pressed. By default, the PreviewSettings(exPreviewAllowUnprintPage) property is True. Set on False to disable this feature. (pages-range support) *Added: The PreviewSettings(exPreviewAllowToggleZoom) property indicates whether the user can toggle the zoom by clicking the focused page. By default, the PreviewSettings(exPreviewAllowToggleZoom) property is True. Set on False to disable this feature.
