New in v 7.19 - September 2023

  • New property FlexCelSVGExport.Encoding allows you to change the encoding when generating SVG files. Now you can change the Encoding of generated SVG files by using the new property FlexCelSVGExport.Encoding

  • Breaking Change: Now FlexCel will default the encoding when to exporting to CSV or SVG to UTF-8 without BOM. FlexCel used to use UTF-8 with BOM to save CSV or SVG files if you didn't specify an encoding. Now the default encoding is UTF-8 with BOM, which is more common. You can still specify an explicit Encoding as UTF-8 with BOM when saving those files if you want to, but if you are not specifying a default, the generated text files will change.

  • Now FlexCel will write the xml inside xlsx files as UTF-8 without BOM. FlexCel used to write the xml inside xlsx files as UTF-8 with BOM, which is valid and works fine, but some third party tools could have issues reading those files. Excel writes the xml as UTF-8 without BOM itself, so this is not a breaking change. See https://support.tmssoftware.com/t/save-utf-8-without-bom/21577

  • Bug Fix. In some rare cases when you entered #N/A as a parameter in a formula, the full formula would become #N/A. See https://support.tmssoftware.com/t/handling-of-n-a-in-formuals-on-loading-excel-file/21425

  • Bug Fix. Page numbers in headers and footers were invalid when exporting to SVG.

  • Bug Fix. FlexCel could write some invalid DXF records when saving table styles to xls files.

  • Bug Fix. InsertAndCopyRange could fail to copy cells in some corner cases
