New Features
Cross Platform
- Added support for
LL.VisibleTableLineIndexandLL.TableLineIndex. - Text rendering has been enhanced with contrast optimization. White and black text will now be adjusted to improve visibility when the contrast with the background is too low.
- Added support for nested tables (i.e., tables within tables).
- The
ProjectConverterOptionsclass includes a new memberProjectPassword, enabling the conversion of password-protected project files. Converted files will be unencrypted, as re-encryption is not yet supported.
Export
- PDF/ZUGFeRD: Official support for the ZUGFeRD format in version 2.4.
Components
- Delphi: Added support for Embarcadero RAD Studio 13 (Ganymede).
Improvements
Export
- Improved CJK text support in PDF exports.
- The “Endless Export” feature (HTML, XLS, TXT, CSV) now offers improved performance and reduced memory consumption. For very large exports, a 64-bit environment is still required.
Cross Platform
- The
Date$function now supports cropping day and month names using%nDand%nM. - Added a log warning when using additive operators on unit properties without
UnitFromSCM, helping to avoid layout issues in LLCP. - Improved handling of very small text objects that prevent page wrapping.
- Improved Debwin4 logging for nested inner exceptions.
- When loading a project file from a stream, the stream is now rewound before reading (if supported).
OpenProjectnow supports creating a new empty project directly in a stream.- The
AndandOroperators now support SQL-style three-valued NULL logic. - Database-level
FilterSyntaxTranslationcan now correctly resolve constants and parent table identifiers. - Unsupported field types (e.g., checkboxes, data graphics) no longer throw exceptions; they are assigned zero height and logged instead.
- Implemented indentation and scaling properties for
SubItemSubReports. - Added a heuristic to better interpret rotation values (quadrant vs. degree-based) for classic designer compatibility.
.NET
- Ad-hoc Designer now provides fallback paper sizes when no printer is installed.
- ADO data provider schema caching was changed from static to instance-specific to improve stability in long-running processes.
- Added a new
AuthorizationHeaderauthentication mode to the Windows Client Web Designer. - Barcode fallback type for unparseable types was corrected from EAN128 to CODE128.
Designer
- Contrast optimization now also considers solid pattern zebra shading (simple scenarios).
- PDF objects can now be selected by clicking on surrounding space created by isotropic filling.
- Window positions changed via Windows snap keys are now correctly remembered.
DOM
- The
barcode()function can now detect the barcode type from quoted values even if variables cannot be evaluated.
Other
- Storage conversions using
LlStgsysStorageConvertnow copy only required BLOBs, significantly reducing file size. - Dynamic Pascal declaration files now compile successfully with Delphi 13 Florence.
