Detailed Product Description

Features:

ComponentOne List for .NET includes dozens of advanced data access, data presentation, and user interface features that enable developers to build intuitive, professional-looking applications:

Incremental search
End-users can quickly locate list items by typing. Supports both single-character matching and an incremental search mode.

Automatic field completion
Works in concert with incremental search to fill the text portion of a combo with matching field data as characters are typed.

Excel and Word-like styles
Hierarchical style objects encapsulate font, color, picture, and formatting information, facilitating easy customization of list components at design time and run time.

Excel-like splits
Developers and end users can divide the list into separate vertical and horizontal panes to provide multiple views of the data. The splits can scroll independently or simultaneously.

Fixed, nonscrolling columns
Splits can also be used to create nonscrolling columns anywhere in the list (at the left or right edges, or in the middle).

In-cell objects
ComponentOne List for .NET supports a variety of in-cell objects for data display and editing, including bitmaps, command buttons, check boxes, and radio buttons.

Automatic data translation
Database values can be automatically translated into alternate text or graphics without coding. For example, numeric codes can be rendered as words or even bitmaps.

Data-sensitive display
A powerful regular expression facility can be used to apply different styles to individual cells depending upon their contents. For example, negative numbers can be shown in red, or fields containing a particular substring can be shown in bold.

Interactive visual editing
Programmers can create columns, retrieve field layouts from a bound data source, resize list components, and configure all aspects of the list layout at design time---no coding is required.

Unbound columns
ComponentOne List for .NET supports unbound columns while other columns are bound to a data control.

Run-time CellTips
Provides context-sensitive help for end users.

Alternating row colors
Enhances the readability of the list's display.

New Vertical Splits
Like Microsoft Excel, ComponentOne List for .NET has the ability to split both horizontally and vertically allowing for a list matrix as well as singular horizontal and vertical views. In addition, a user-friendly matrix dereferencing notation makes splits quite accessible even with multiple horizontal and vertical splits.

New column objects
ComponentOne List for .NET includes two separate column objects to help simplify the sometimes daunting object model. The C1DataColumn object contains all of the properties related to data and data processing, while the C1DisplayColumn object contains all of the properties related to the column's display.

Expanded data views
ComponentOne List for .NET includes two alternate display formats. Normal view presents data in a standard form, while the MultipleLines view displays all of the columns on multiple lines in the viewable list.

Style border properties
The expanded style object now includes properties that let you customize the appearance, size, color, and type of cell borders.

Scroll tracking and ScrollTips
The vertical scroll bar thumb can now scroll records as it is moved. You can also use the ScrollTips feature to provide an informational pop-up during scrolling.

Free run-time distribution
No royalty fees required.

And much more…
Including the Find method for C1List and C1Combo, the Tag property for column objects, and right to left support.
