If you’ve been waiting around for a good WinForms Rating control, then you’re in luck with the current release of DevExpress WinForms Gauges. The XtraGauges Suite.

Featuring the ability to connect with several input controls like a radio group or a slider, the Rating control has sharp graphics and versatility.

The image above shows the rating control in action. You can see this demo by:

  1. Opening the ‘DemoCenter’ application in the DevExpress folder and
  2. selecting the ‘New Presets’ option of the ‘XtraGauges Main Demo’
  3. [General folder location]: C:\Program Files\DevExpress 2009.1\Components\Demos\DXperience\Bin\

Full source code for the rating control demo is also available in your local DevExpress folder (see item #3 for typical folder location). Available in the DXperience 2008 volume 3 release (and above) you can get your hands on the WinForms Rating control right away.

Hi Mehul

Thanks for info but what it is just for presentation not for editing. Can we have similar rating control what you guys introducing for ASP.Net in Vol 2009.2?

Cheers,

Binoy

Hi Binoy,

Check out the XtraGauges demo. You can bind the WinForms rating control to any input and use it for edits as well.
