Can I change the height of the parameter section?  When it displays, their is a left to right scroll bar that hides the parameter drop down lists as shown in the attached image.

Also, is there a way to default the parameter values to "<select all>"?

Hello Sean Overman,

You're the first one to report such a problem. We have the following questions/suggestions:

  • Have you tried to increase the Report Viewer's width? It may be not sufficient to render all of the parameters.
  • In which browsers does the issue occur?
  • What is the DocType of your reports? Have you tried changing it?
  • Have you tried to short the Parameters Labels?

Unfortunately there is no out of the box solution to change the Parameters section, but still, you can create your own Parameter UI as shown in the attached sample project.

If you still experience difficulties please send us a sample runnable project that illustrates the issue and we will advise you accordingly.
 

Regards,
Peter

I am having the same issue.  I have 2 parameters that are loaded using a datasource, so the width of the comboboxes is variable.  For certain users, the comboxes get wide enough to force scrolling, and the scrollbar covers the parameters (like in Sean's image)

- Increasing the width of the viewer is not an option - plus since I don't know the size the comboboxes will be rendered, I don't know what width to set it at.
- The issue occurs in IE9, Firefox (6.0.2), and Chrome (14.0.835.186).  I did not test with any other browsers.
- DOCTYPE is XHTML 1.0 Strict.  Changing the doctype is not an option. (reports are part of site that shares a masterpage)
- Shortening the labels can be done, but wont solve the issue since the comboboxes can still grow.
 
I'll probably create a property on my datasource object that returns a trimmed string to avoid items that cause the combobox to grow to the point where scrolling is needed.  But I figured I'd add my experience because I feel this is a bug.

Thanks,
Justin
