Reporting Components UI Customization
Reporting Subscription customization is limited to the public APIs of the included components. Some customization scenarios require changing the behavior or appearance of the controls that make up the Report Viewer and Report Designer UI.
To add additional DevExpress UI controls (for example, new panels, buttons, or menus) that are not part of the Reporting product, either on a form, web page, or within the Reporting UI, you need a subscription that includes those controls. Purchase one of the following subscriptions to obtain the necessary licenses:
- WinForms Subscription
- ASP.NET & Blazor Subscription
- WPF Subscription
- Universal Subscription
- DXperience Subscription

With the DevExpress Reporting Subscription, you can only use the ReportPrintTool and ReportDesignTool classes to display a Print Preview and End-User Report Designer in WinForms Applications. To customize DevExpress Reporting components UI in your application code or at design time in Visual Studio, you need a subscription that includes DevExpress WinForms UI Controls (WinForms, DXperience, or Universal).

The DevExpress Reporting Subscription ships with pre-built Print Preview and End-User Report Designer controls for multiple platforms. You can use their public API in some customization scenarios that require changing the behavior or appearance of the control. To add additional DevExpress UI controls (for example, new panels, buttons, or menus) that are not part of the Reporting product, either on a form, web page, or within the Reporting UI, you need a subscription that includes those controls: WinForms, WPF, or ASP.NET Blazor. Note that all required platform-specific capabilities are included in our best-value bundle subscriptions: DXperience and Universal.
