Very easy to use custom controls hosting support inside a node control You can show any of your own or third-party controls in a general way in a node control:
or in the expandable area of our unique expandable node controls as well:
Moreover, for every node you can define when to show your attached control - never, always, for hot or/and selected or/and focused nodes. This allows you to keep the treeview clear while show your control when the mouse cursor is over a node, for example.
Popups Need to keep the treeview as simple as possible but allow to end-users to enter some complex data? The new node control, NodePopupContainer, comes in here.
You may show any control in the popup, from a simple control to a complex user control! Additionally, you may show different popups for each node.
Cute and eye-catching image animation NodeImage node control now supports nice, eye-catching image animation, available to you with just one line of code!
Right now we do support fade-out and images sequence built-in animations. This is very useful when you want to draw the user's eye to a particular node.
Color picker NodeColorPicker new node control has been added to select a color or color gradient from the nice Office2007 styled color picker.
If you need to show another control rather than a built-in one, you may do it very easily.
Link NodeLink new node control has been added to easily show a hyperlink and respond to the link clicks.
PaintBox NodePaintBox is a new node control that has been added to display any custom drawing content in the node such as an image, text, dynamic content, etc. Just handle two tree's events and you are done.
