We are pleased to announce the release of the update for QtitanRibbon component 6.7. In this version we added a new RibbonProgressBar control and non-GUI class RibbonProgressOperation, which allows to perform long-time operations in a separate thread and notify the end-user through the RibbonProgressBar about progress. The main feature of RibbonProgressBar is the RibbonProgressBar::setValueSafe(int) method, which is thread-safe. This means you can safely call it from any thread without fear of breaking the GUI. To demonstrate how it works, we created an example Ribbon_DocumentLoader, it is available for C++ and Python (PySide). Additionaly, RibbonProgressBar supports animation. The progress bar shows the increase or decrease of progress smoothly, without twitching.

Another important feature of version 6.7 is support for the Acrylic effect for top-level windows under OS Windows 11. Unfortunately, there is a bug in Windows 10 which does not allow to use this beautiful effect, but under Windows 11 we found a way to initialize it. For Windows 10, we initialize a common blur effect as an alternative that was introduced in Windows 7. The screenshots below show the difference.

We are pleased to announce the release of QtitanDataGrid 8.1. Version 8.1 contains a number of improvements and bug fixes in the abstract model interface mechanism, when data is inserted, deleted into models, or moved within the model.

Added transparent scrollbars for ribbon galleries and refactoring animation. Fixed bugs in styling and other minor issues.

 

At the beginning of this year, we announced the start of work on creating the DC Studio Tool, tool which will allow to develop the visual styles in Adobe XD and then import them into Qt. We have done a lot of tasks in this area over the past six months, but the amount of work to be very big. Among other things, the future of the XD format and Adobe’s policy after purchasing the Figma project are not clear to us. Therefore, we decided support the Figma format too, which added additional loads for the developers. As a result, the project still not completed and we are forced to shift the release date to 2024 year.

In the near future, we intend to focus on releasing updates to our components without support AdobeXD-based styles and will be ready to publish some news about this project in early 2024 year.

 

We are pleased to announce the release of a new version of the component QtitaDataGrid 8 beta.

Version 8 contains many new features but primarily the changes in the code architecture. The result of this changing is that the grid now inherits from the QAbstractScrollArea class. The new version supports kinetic scrolling for the rows by the mouse wheel. This is best used in conjunction with the pixel scrolling mode. This kinetic scroll mode is enabled together with the transparent scrollbars mode. Transparent scrollbars, in turn, provide a greater overview of the grid data.

The mechanism for supporting touch events and gestures for working on touchpads has also been redesigned and improved. Using gestures, you can scroll and zoom the data. Zooming can also be operated with a kinetic effect. In the current version, we have redesigned the rows layout so that they are become more flatter. Now the row header can be removed, if this is done the row fixation or selection icons are placed directly at the beginning of the grid row. In addition, we have changed the design of the field chooser window. At the screenshot below you can see how it looks now. A toolbar with frequently used commands has appeared on the grouping panel. You can add custom widgets to this toolbar, which can be buttons that are frequently used by users.To enable greater customization of grid design, we have improved support for QCSS. In the screenshot below you can see an example of such customization.

In addition to new features, we have fixed a number of bugs that were found in version 7.6 and rendering optimization has been performed. Rendering speed will be much better if the grid uses many columns.

The source codes of the new version for beta testing can be downloaded in the personal account of registered customers.

Below are a few screenshots showing the new version of the grid:
