I need to print legal contracts.  What support for RTF on the reports will be available? I need to format text left/right/full justification, underline some word, bold some words all in the same text box.

As an alternative I could use a PDF file as a background image.  The PDF file will have all of the formated text and lines, etc.

Thanks,
John

I have a master report with a subreport in the detail section.  On my master report I have a background image that fills the page.  If my subreport does not fill an entire page the bacground image stops where the subreport stops and the rest of the page is white.  What can I do to fix this?  I tried adding a report footer to force the page to finish priting but that doesn't fix the problem.

Hi!
There is support for localization of reports serialized on xml files? How it works? 
For instance serializing a report we have obtained the following xml extract:

<TextBox Value="Cliente: " >

where the value of label textbox is built-in in the xml in one only culture. There is any way to have something like a link to a resource like report in compiled mode?

We have found the following fix in the last release:

<<<
What's Fixed in Telerik Reporting Q3 2010 SP1 (v4.2.10.1221)
Report Model
Fixed: XML report serialization should be culture agnostic
>>>

what that means? We can't find other information about it.

Thanks

Is there any way that I can force my web app's ReportViewer (or the report itself) to put everything on one page?

(Other than by setting a mile-long paper size?)

You state in another identically titled thread that there was a bug in Q3 2010 with multivalue parameters and that there was an internal build available that addresses it.  Can you please  make this available to  myself.  I have just spent a very frustrating day getting your earlier workaround (involving a user function) up and running and a fix would be infinitely preferable than trying to get that working again.

thanks

Hi.

I'll try to explain the scenario as good as I possibly can.

We have a wysiwyg "editor" in Silverlight where you can build an invoice.

In the footer we have a <WrapPanel Orientation="Vertical"/>. This WrapPanel has an itemsource of List<FooterPart>. The FooterPart object contains a title(going to be viewed as bold) and a body that can contain more than one line.

Please look at the attached picture. The WrapPanel will place the parts in such a way that if the parts only have a body consisting of one line, two of them can exist in the same column, if not, only one part will exist in the column.

Now the problem is, I need to achieve a somewhat similar effect in the report footer. The report footer will have access to this List<FooterPart> and in some way I need to be able to render the parts in the same way I do in Silverlight using the Wrappanel.

Are there any somewhat easy ways of achieving this? I've also created a support ticket on this about 3 days ago but seeing as it's not an easy question I haven't gotten an answer.

Maybe someone else have had a similar problem. So please share your thoughts and, if any, solutions. :-)

Have a nice day,
E.

Dear madam/sir,

We are generating a full catalogue with the telerik reporting system. There is one disadvantage: we cannot place an index or table of content on the top of the catalogue/report.
In the demos online we see an index on the left side of the report. That works fine, but you can't print it for visitors or customers. The full catalogue will take about 130 pages.
Do you have experience with something like indexing on top of the report? What can i do that it will work?
Thanks in advance.

Regards, Bart Nijssen - Infodatek

Could anyone explain which keys to hold down for selecting multiple controls on a report - shift/control/alt etc.

Also there doesn't seem to be an 'Undo' for moving controls around on a report - am I missing something?

Thanks.

I'm a bit confused in what is currently possible and not possible with the ReportViewer and Silverlight in regards to localization.
Searching through the forums you'll get a mixture of very old and new threads and I'm having a hard time finding out what I actually can do right now. Also the release notes for the latest version confuse me.

In the release notes for Telerik Reporting Q2 2010 SP1 (v4.1.10.921).
There's an entry in the Silverlight Report Viewer section that says:

"Fixed: Cannot localize a Report through the Localizable property."

Still there's a entry in the PITS:
"Issue ID 355 - Cannot localize a Report using the Localizable property"
(http://www.telerik.com/support/pits.aspx#/public/reporting/355)

which to me sounds similar to the one fixed in the current release but the entry in the PITS still says its status is open and that it's not scheduled for a specific verison yet. If they are not the same can you please explain their differences.

I've managed to somewhat localize my reports by setting the Localizable property to True and adding the resx files for the languages that I need. There's also a Culture property on the Report class which let's you specify the format for dates, currency etc. but this property is not controlling the localized texts which still needs Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture property. And setting that property affects all reports in the current renderingprocess. Are you planning to extend the Culture feature to also apply to the UICulture in such way that you can set the report language per report?

I'm currently trying to use the ReportBook to display a bunch of invoices to ease batch printing etc.
And what I ultimately would like to do is for each report in my ReportBook specify the culture it will use when rendering and this would be based on the language settings of the customer recieving the invoice and not the on UICulture using my application.

Will anything in this area change with the next release when you move to Silverlight 4?
