Hi just wondering how the VWG office controls convert to WiseJ? Eg Headered Panel, Woorkspace Tabs

Thanks for your help

Hi Ewan,

• All Wisej panels have a ShowHeader property which shows a Header with a collapse/expand button.

• Personally I use an MDI Parent Form with MDI children forms to replace Workspace tabs.

Best regards,
Alex

Hi Ewan,

In addition to what Alex wrote:

• Wisej panels, including flow, table and split panel, can have a header (top, left, right, and bottom), can collapse to a different side, can auto expand sliding over and back, can host tool buttons in the header, etc.

• The TabControl already supports close buttons on individual tabs.

• Wisej group boxes are already collapsible and can also show a checkbox in the label.

• We don't have the stack panel - however it's quite easy to put one together using collapsible panels. We'll add a NavigationBar control as an extension (w source code).

HTH

Best,

Luca

Hi

Do you have a calendar control similar to Outlook?

This control was also part of the set of office controls.

Thanks

We are including this https://fullcalendar.io/  (you can try their several online samples) in the extensions - it's MIT license. It's one of the most flexible and powerful javascript calendar I have seen. The integration with Wisej uses the same virtual data store we use for the datagrid and the listview and can handle unlimited items without paging. It's also themeable using the wisej theme system.

Best,

Luca

This gets more exciting with each question I ask!

When will the Calendar control be available?

I don't have an ETA. It's almost all there but, unsurprisingly, time is running faster as we approach Nov 1st. Best guess is before the end of the year in the extensions (with source) and probably not covering 100% of the features in the javascript widget.
