04/16/2010 - Go Silverlight! Go Silverlight reporting tools!

Silverlight 4 has just been released. This is a great event all Silverlight followers looked for and seemed to stand still in expectation of it. Silverlight 4 is a real breakthrough as it provides many features required by both business users (such as printing) and ordinary users (such as access to web camera and microphone). Perpetuum Software keeps up-to-date and offers a line of reporting tools that are completely compatible with Silverlight 4: Report Sharp-Shooter for Silverlight and Silverlight Viewer for Reporting Services 2008.

Silverlight Viewer for Reporting Services is a native Silverlight control making it possible to view Reporting Services reports in Silverlight applications. New version supports Silverlight 4 and namely native Silverlight printing API. At last, report consumers will have an ability to use standard Silverlight API to print reports, as unprinted reports are almost nonsense. Perpetuum used to offer a temporary solution but now it is glad to get it all on a single platform. Users are now able to set all print settings: select printer, page range, number of copies, etc.

Some small pleasant features are added for user convenience: hot-keys Ctrl++, Ctrl+-, Ctrl+F, custom cursor, improved search and browse history.

Report Sharp-Shooter for Silverlight is a flexible and reliable report tool featuring Silverlight viewer designed to view generated reports in Silverlight environment. Native Silverlight printing API is available in this component as well. A free SharePoint web part for Report Sharp-Shooter for Silverlight is amplified with this essential feature; and you get a complete product working correctly in your SharePoint apps.

So, the whole line of Silverlight reporting tools by Perpetuum Software keeps up-to-date and offers latest and the most demanded functionality. Now nothing prevents developers from migration of their reporting systems to Silverlight.
