When the v6 stable will be release, will be a easy way to convert a v5 project to v6 project? for example a tool to do it?

Hi,

 

It will be released this September. I have in plan to make converter, but tried to don't change a lot of crucial properties such as Columns, Cell(s) and similar properties in NextGrid.

Hey,

Any news on that front?

 

I´m in the middle of migrating some old D7 / Nx Suite 5 projects and found some components missing in v6 (Outlookbar, Focus, Expandpanel, ...)

 

What is the main advantage of Nx6 which Nx5 does not provide? High DPI

Is there a comparison overview Nx5 vs Nx6 anywhere?

 

Thanks

H

Hi Harald,

 

Unfortunately I didn't created automatic convertor, but you can place both versions of controls in the same Application or even Form.

 

Outlook control is not there but you can still use one from v5. Version 5 is still updated with new packages every time Embarcadero releases a new version.

 

Biggest difference between v5 and v6 of NextGrid is that there are grid views now. Slides and Report view are now separate classes that can be configures in more details.

 

I also simplified many of the operations. For example Editing is not separate property of Column and is not anymore buried inside Options property.

 

There are many things like that.

 

Best regards
