RadMap in Reporting

[lkeel]

Is there any chance that you will be providing a way to embed the new RadMap control within Reports generated by this Reporting Engine?  If not, then I would very much like to suggest this as a feature enhancement.

Thanks,
Lee

Hello lkeel,

Currently you can use only the items that come up with the product into the report and we have not planned on changing this. Moreover Telerik Reports do not have interactive features implemented yet, which would make using RadMap into reports impossible for the time being.

I wasn't really looking to interact with the map.  What I wanted to be able to do is to show some graphs with a map beside it that had symbols based on the values being rendered in the graph and such.  It wasn't really to interact with.

Hi lkeel,

Thank you for the clarification. Well in such case, if RadMap exposes a method to save a map into an image file/stream, you would be able to show this image in Telerik Reporting via the picturebox item. However since the product development is just starting, we cannot say for certain if this would be possible and when/how.

Is it possible to have a heatmap in a report today?

Hi Tom,

As mentioned in the previous post, if you are able to save the map into the server (where Telerik Reports reside), you can use the PictureBox report item to display it. Additionally you can try to customize the chart report item to show a heatmap. For more info see:
