ASPxImageSlider Overview

  • 2 minutes to read

ASPxImageSlider is a data control that is used to display images and navigate through these images. The control supports data binding, the loading of images from a specified folder, and the manual creation of image items. You can create image thumbnails automatically or you can create them beforehand to increase the control performance.
