/*DataFlex Reports 25.1 Beta released - Try what's new*/
July 30, 2025
We’re excited to announce the Beta release of DataFlex Reports 25.1, giving you an early look at the latest enhancements.
This version introduces several improvements that make it even easier to build dynamic, accurate, and beautifully formatted reports. The standout feature? Lines and boxes across sections, enabling even more flexible and polished report designs.
We invite you to explore the new features, test them in your own environment, and share your feedback. Your input helps us make DataFlex Reports even better!
What’s New?
DataFlex Reports 25.1 comes with an exciting new feature: Lines and Boxes Across Sections. This new feature allows you to draw lines or boxes that span multiple report sections. For example, from the page header to the details or footer. This gives you:
- More layout control - you’re no longer limited to drawing within a single section.
- Cleaner design - you can visually group elements across sections for better structure and readability.
- Professional look - boxes and lines can now frame entire areas of the report, not just isolated parts.
It’s especially useful when building reports that need a consistent visual structure across pages or that include grouped data blocks.
Other improvements
This release comes with numerous improvements and bug fixes, main ones include:
- Setting a Username without setting a password when exporting a report to PDF no longer causes a crash.
- Images in subreports are now shown correctly when exporting a report to PDF.
- Fixed issue with incorrect clipping of objects when exporting a report to HTML.
- Chart preview now appears when you first open the designer.
