From 4D View to 4D View Pro

We have identified a large set of usages of 4D View in customer applications. One of them is an enhanced user interface using advanced lists, such as a property window for instance. Others are using 4D View to have detailed control of list display, requiring a large set of fine details not available in list boxes.

We also saw usage of 4D View as a reporting engine as well as a spreadsheet. As a result, 4D View Pro could not be a single solution or tool to handle all this cases.

What about 4D View Pro?

With 4D v15 we already shipped a first feature related to the advanced list usage: independent control types per cell – or using Object Array in columns.

With upcoming R-releases we will see more 4D View Pro additional features coming.

There is no new specific license for 4D View Pro, it is reusing the existing 4D View license. As a consequence, you need a 4D View license to use any 4D View Pro feature.
