Android 15.2

15.2 marks a milestone for our Android product - we are officially RTM'd with the DataChart, and we are introducing a brand new DataGrid, built from the ground up to deliver on the most demanding mobile scenarios.  Our new Data Grid is truly responsive to changes of the available width and orientation of the device. Columns animations, binding remote data along with the local, live scrolling, row selection, and built-in columns are some of the features our Grid provides right out of the box.  The stunning data chart is designed for high-volume and real-time scenarios. Column, Bar, Line, Area, Range, Scatter, Financial, Polar, Radial, Stacked are among the most popular series our Data Chart has. All are zoomable which makes them easy to drill down into the data even on a small device.

New Grid

Let's take a look at the features in the new Android Data Grid.

Data Source

The Grid's data can be Local, available on the device already, or the grid can retrieve data from a Remote store, e.g. from a web service.

Built-in Columns

Create a Grid with auto-generated columns or select the column types among our built-in Columns: Text, Numeric, Image, DateTime, and Template.

All columns’ cells and headers can be configured by setting text properties like text color, font size, background color, alignment, and width. Numeric Column provides control over the decimal places. Image Column has image stretch options. DateTime Column provides several predefined DateTime formats to choose from, e.g. short date/time, long date/time. The Template Column allows you to customize the layout of content in the column.

Responsive layout

Our Grid is dynamically changing the visible columns based on available width by setting break points at different widths or based on the orientation of the device.

           

Animation

You, the developer, or your end user may control columns' Showing, Hiding, Adding, Moving, and Exchanging. Showing, Hiding and Adding Columns’ animations can be configured to slide from left, right, top, bottom and/or to fade in. Exchanging Columns’ animation can be configured to slide to left, right, top, bottom and/or to crossfade. Moving Columns’ animation can be set to slide over.

           

Live scrolling

The data will be retrieved on the fly over the web, as you are scrolling down, thus ensuring high performance of the Grid. This helps to minimize the amount of data that needs to be transmitted to the device.   

Selection

Single and Multi-Row Selection is supported in our Grid to allow scenarios like highlighting a row or a master / detail view, etc.
