Navigation Bar (WebForms and MVC)

The DevExpress ASP.NET NavBar allows you to replicate the Microsoft Outlook Navigation Bar for both WebForms and MVC platforms. With integrated AJAX support, the NavBar is able to load a group's content from the server via a callback whenever a group is expanded. This approach allows the NavBar to avoid the initial transfer of all group data to the client, thus improving page load performance. Features include:

Data Binding ● AJAX Support ● Templates ● Rich Client Side Events ● Hot Tracking ● Expansion/Collapse Options

Tag Cloud Control (WebForms only)

Use the ASP.NET Tag Cloud Control to visually represent information to end-users. All tags are individual words whose importance is shown using font size. A RankCount property specifies the total number of ranks which the input data should be divided into. The Scale property allows you to select the scale to be used to rank elements. Both linear and logarithmic scale types are supported.

The ShowValues property allows the rank (weight) of an element to be displayed together with the element's caption text. This is useful in instances when you need to provide exact information about tag elements.

SiteMap Control (WebForms only)

The ASP.NET SiteMap Control allows you to display site map data across multiple columns. These can be defined by using the Columns property. When the ColumnCount property equals 0, a single column will be displayed (by default). If the ColumnCount is greater than the number of nodes of the top (zero-based) hierarchy level, then the number of top level nodes will be used.
