Dragging of chart elements
You can drag an element in any type of line or bar chart to change its value. Bars can be dragged in vertical or horizontal direction according to the bar orientation. The elements in line charts can be dragged in any direction. The drag behavior is set with the Behavior property and Behavior enumeration.

Demo and samples
The charting demo has been greatly improved with many new steps. Some of the chart samples have been changed to better demonstrate the recently added features of the control or the most important existing ones.

Node effects
Give your diagram a polished and contemporary look with the new Glass and Aero effects. Use the new API to create an instance of an effect class, set its properties and add it to the Diagram.NodeEffects collection. You can also apply the existing Emboss and SmoothShadow effects to all node types, not just ShapeNode.

CompositeLayout improvements
The CompositeLayout exposes several new properties among which UseAdditionalPartitioning. When you set it to true it adds another partitioning pass after the default partition. This is very useful in graphs where the initial partitioning has produced a graph with nodes and many leaf children.

SolarLayout
This is a variation of the FractalLayout that places child nodes around their parents in such manner that child nodes don't overlap. The layout takes into consideration the size of the nodes and tries to minimize the space occupied by them. It can optionally prevent links from crossing nodes by bending them.

ReportEditor control
The new ReportEditor control can be embedded in any application and provides the ability to create, save, open, preview and print reports. The editor UI consists of a designer editor, property grid, a toolbox and a preview panel. The report editor supports clipboard operations, undo and redo, the ability to register external data sources for use inside the editor, simplified serialization and more.

XML Serialization
Use the SaveToXml and LoadFromXml methods to serialize and deserilize your reports.

Report parameters
You can add parameters to a report with the Parameters collection of the Report class. The parameters provide name, description and value and can be of any type, including expression.

Improved Expression editor
The Expression editor gives you direct access to the built-in expression functions as well available keywords, operators, report parameters and table fields.

Multiple grouping
You can group now by two resource types simultaneously in the Resource view. Use the Calendar.GroupType to specify the first resource type and then the new Calendar.SecondaryGroupType to specify the second resource type.

Item effects
You can choose between two new visual effects, which will make your calendar items even more beautiful - the AeroEffect and the GlassEffect. It is very easy to apply an effect - just create an instance of the class that represents it, set up its properties and add it to the Calendar.ItemEffects collection. Effects of different types can be applied simultaneously. Effects can be added, removed or modified at any time and this will immediately reflect on the calendar.

API Changes
Several changes were made to the API in order to accommodate the possibility to have item and cell associations with more than one resource at a time. Several event arguments now provide a new property of type Resource[] (in addition to the standard Resource property), which contains all resources related to the event in cases where this is applicable.

The Selection class has been extended in order to support multiple resources. There are new overloads of the Add and Set methods, some properties have been removed and some methods have been changed.

Miscellaneous
You can now resize interactively the row header of the Resource view. To enable this, set the AllowResizeRowHeaders property to Enabled.
