Can ReportViewer render as image instead of html?

[Tony Monaco]

Hi,

I'm generating a pie chart for 2 series on the one graph.  I need to label each series with its own sub heading.  The only way I could find to do this was to use overlapping textbox controls on top of the chart control. 
When I view the report in the ReportViewer, the textboxes move to the right of the chart so they no longer overlap.  I understand that this is a limitation of the html rendering in the control.  Is there a way to get this control to render an image instead? 

Many Thanks.

Tony

Hello Tony,

Unfortunately the chart item supports a single title only. Also the web reportviewer would show the rendered report using the HTML rendering extension, and it cannot use other extension. You have the following options:

• format the chart title in such a way (with enough spaces), so that it would look like two separate titles over the pies.
• create two separate charts, each with a single serie and its own title.
• render the report directly in page oriented format such as pdf: How do I display a PDF directly in the browser without exporting first.

Hope these help.
Kind regards,
