We give you the development tools you’ve always wanted.   Our grids support in-place editing of many data types.  Toolbars and menus look and work just like Microsoft Office.  Web controls include menus, tabs, trees, and many other controls that professional Web sites need that don’t ship with Visual Studio.  Our tools can save you countless hours of effort, and deliver reliable, consistent results.  As your user interface evolves, our elements allow every aspect of the presentation to be customized, letting you handle change rapidly.

Application Styling

With the NetAdvantage Application Styling Framework™ (ASF), developers and designers can now set the look and feel of applications at run time with an XML-based style library file. Our style libraries use style inheritance to provide global styling functionality for Windows Forms - analogous to web-based cascading style sheets (CSS). Style libraries also provide shared, reusable resources that can be applied effortlessly across multiple Infragistics controls in an application, or multiple applications using Infragistics Windows Forms controls.

Designers

Our designers give you a quick, easy, and intuitive way to access the vast functionality provided by our controls. These design-time tools present you with a clear, orderly approach to setting up a NetAdvantage element within the context of your unique application. Designers guide the process of configuring the most common and important element settings, keeping you on course with just-in-time information and real-time previews as you work.

Style Presets

Working hand-in-hand with the designers is the new “Style Preset” functionality. Everyone from Microsoft Office developers to Web design gurus recognize the power of using common styles to ensure consistent formatting, and with Style Presets this power can be yours.  Style Presets give you a fast, simple way to apply a range of formatting and behavior options across the elements of your interface, and across multiple applications, to deliver a consistent experience for your users.  Built-in style presets include Office 2007, Windows XP Blue, Silver and Olive; Office 2003 Blue, Silver and Olive; Office 2000 and Microsoft CRM.  You can customize existing presets, or create your own from scratch.

MSDN-Style Documentation

Our documentation is streamlined, consolidated, and includes quickstart topics that get you up and running in no time.  Resources include sample code, task-based help, knowledge base articles, and newsgroup postings, all neatly grouped by platform and element, or by category of resource.  Our help combines local and on-line documentation to insure that you always have the information you need, and access to the latest documentation.

With an intuitive programming model, powerful features, and great help and on-line resources, you’ll find that you’re up and running with NetAdvantage in no time, building your next great presentation layer.
