2 more errors in beta 2 of telerik reporting:

internet explorer 7.0:
i noticed that the internet explorer (at least in version 7.0) shows an additional "zoom" function (which is not shown in firefox/gecko and opera/presto - i assume that is only possible in ie/trident browsers?), but: after loading a report it's always shown in 500% mode, which looks  very awful, specially the internal scrollbar, which "grows" and "shrinks" also with zooming. by the way: i didn't find any properties to change that, and  also for other things:
- changing values of tooltips (refresh, print, next page etc.) or "Select export format" string (for localization)
- turning on/off functionality for buttons/combos etc. showing in the browser, like the zoom combo (and maybe to allow only certain zoom steps), the print-button, the export combo box (and maybe allow only certain exports, and also the possiblity to change the strings) etc.
but maybe i just haven't found these properties and i'm just blind.

opera 9.2:
after loading a report, pushing the internal refresh button (not the browser refresh/reload button!) the first time, it works just fine. but pushing it a second time turns into an infinite report creation loop inside the browser ("report will be created" message). i have no idea if that happens also in other versions of opera minor than 9.2.


generally speaking: i'm looking forward to use the final telerik reporting tool, even it's still a lot of work in front of you guys: the designer works kind of buggy, weird and not really smooth, i.e. values inside textboxes disappear, if the "box" is smaller than the content; strange padding inside textboxes; crashing of the designer including visual studio, and so on.

ps: i'm aware of the fact that this is a beta version, but i would consider a release candidate before i toss that tool on the market.
just another 2 cents from my side.  :-)

edit for internet explorer 7.0/500% zoom problem:

the problem doesn't happen in your demo web files i just played around with. the difference in my test environment is that the reportviewer control is sitting in a usercontrol which will be loaded into an asp:panel on the mainpage. maybe that helps. if that isn't the problem i can do further research...

Hi ernie racer,

Thanks for the detailed feedback. We really appreciate it. Here are some of the answers to your questions:

  • The Zoom functionality of the Report Viewer is implemented using the default functionality of the Internet Explorer. So, yes, zooming is supported only in IE.
  • The "500%" zoom problem does really appear when the Report Viewer is loaded from a user control. This issue is already  fixed and the fix will appear in the official release next week.
  • All tooltips are customizable through satellite assemblies. Information of how to do this will be available later.
  • All buttons on the Report Viewer's toolbar can be shown and hidden using the Show[Button] properties: ShowExportGroup, ShowNavigationGroup, ShowZoomSelect, etc.
  • The problem with Opera 9.2 is logged as a bug and will be fixed later.

Your points have been updated.


Sincerely yours,

Chavdar
