visibility. You may turn on and off each setting.
- Memo object can have several format settings. When a Memo object
contains multiple expressions in a text, you may specify a format for each
expression.
- Added Filter property to data bands. You may filter out data rows without
using a script.

formats, highlights are written as nested properties for better readability. Old
files (FR VCL 3 and 4) are fully supported.

may build a detail report.

Exports:
- New exports: HTML5 (div), DOCX, XLSX, PPTX.
- Improvements in RTF, XLS, XML, HTML, ODF exports: support of different
frame lines in a single Memo object.
