Compatibility Settings (v19.1 <-> v19.2)

Version 19.2 introduces the following changes to improve usability and UX.

  • Grid Control - Find Panel has been embedded in the Group Panel. The appearance of the Find Panel's Clear, Prev and Next buttons has changed. See the T828636 ticket for more information.
  • Controls that support context-dependent images - When you specify the ImageUri property, the control receives a vector icon.
  • ProgressBar Control - The DisplayText parameter of the CustomDisplayText event initially contains text formatted as a percentage in PercentView mode.The custom text you assign to the DisplayText event parameter is now displayed as is. See the T818803 ticket for more information.
  • Text Editors - Null Value Prompt, if specified, is displayed when an editor's value is empty and null, by default. This applies to non-focused, focused and read-only editors. See the T819722 ticket for more information.
  • Filter Editors in the Report Designer and Dashboard Designer - Filter criteria are rendered in Visual mode by default. See the following tickets for more information: T819963 and T820009.
  • Tree List - When a user right-clicks a node, the node menu now contains commands that expand/collapse nodes. See the T822362 ticket for more information.

To revert to the old behavior, you can set the WindowsFormsSettings.DefaultSettingsCompatibilityMode property to v19_1 or any previous version. For more information, see Version Compatibility - Default Property Values.
