The most powerful
VCL Data Grid
The most popular data grid for the VCL platform is only available from DevExpress. From standard two-dimensional tables to runtime grouping and column customization; from master/detail relationships, to card views; from integrated themes to unbound mode... The DevExpress VCL Grid Suite is the industry standard, without equal in the marketplace.
The easy-to-use
VCL Reporting tool
Render and print your UI without writing a single line of code and deliver a nearly unlimited set of reports without using a banded report designer.
The DevExpress Printing System has been designed to accurately reproduce the contents of UI controls such as the DevExpress Grid, Pivot Grid and Scheduler. Your end-users can manipulate the controls visually, filter for desired information as needed and instantly print or export the contents of the visual control. Simply said, the ExpressPrinting System reduces the need to manually generate banded reports saving you both time and money.
The most flexible
VCL Analytics tools
Unleash the power of information and elegantly present it to your end-users with the high powered data-mining, and multi-dimensional data analysis controls by DevExpress. DevExpress gives you the means with which to meet and exceed the demands of your most demanding enterprise clients, today.
The richest collection of
VCL Data Editors
From masked data input and built-in data validation, to HTML formatting, the VCL Data Editors Library offers unmatched data editing options whether used for standalone data editing or as cell editors in container controls like the DevExpress VCL Data Grid.
Stunning and Informative
The DevExpress VCL Gauge Control provides numerous gauge shapes with a rich set of layout and appearance options so you can deliver stunning dashboards in the shortest possible time. Mix and match gauges to create reusable widgets and dashboards. These can be as simple as utility gauges and testers or as complex as multi-sensor control panels.
Built-in Style Collection
The VCL Gauge Control provides 16 built-in styles that allow you to change how a control looks with just a single mouse click.
New UI Adorner Manager
The VCL UI Adorner Manager is designed to display interactive objects and apply visual effects to better communicate the state of your application to end-users. It allows you to paint badges on top of all other UI elements and create guides to highlight specific UI elements using a translucent layered window.
