I have an old Active Report I'm trying to recreate in Telerik reporting.  There are a number of horizontal and vertical lines on the old report that I have had little success in making look right in Telerik reports.  The main problem is the difference between the designer view and the preview window.  I understand why the html preview is rendered differently... since html formatting is tricky, being a web designer myself I'm perplexed with how well that works.  But I'm also thinking that it should be no problem to allow overlapping lines and textboxes if your goal is to only export to PDF or print (which is the case here). I'm looking at a report here where I have a line shape overlapping another perpendicular line by about 2 pixels, yet on the preview it's almost 10 pixels away from it.  I've messed with this enough to decide I can't outsmart it and predict where the line will actually be rendered without clicking on the preview button...
Is there any way to make this more consistent?  Is this just me having problems?

Thanks

Hello,

I'm working on a report with several subreports created programatically. Everything is printing fine except for two (very similar) subreports. These two subreports contain multiple text boxes of various sizes and display repeating information coming from a DataTable. We are rendering straight to PDF with no ReportViewer.

Everything looks great until the point near the end of the subreports in question. Their information becomes cut off and covered by the subreport that is next in sequence. I can use Adobe Reader's "Search" function to find the text that's cut off, and it highlights some sort of invisible text underneath the next subreport. Rearranging the subreports changes where the overlapping occurs, but still cuts off part of one or both of the subreports at some point. I narrowed down the problem somewhat by setting CanGrow to false, but that only works on a very limited number of text boxes and prevents my report from displaying correctly.

Has anyone else run into this, and more importantly, found a fix for it?

Thanks,

Shane

Hi

1. Can you give any sample report using multiple(3 or 4 ) parameters,
2.  want see all the results by default without selection of any paramter.
3. every parameter should work like individually.

here i am facing problem with two paramters.

I have create two parameters one is role and object.
Role parameter with  allow null=true, data Source ,dispaly member="rolename",value member="RoleID"
Object parameter with allow null=true,data Source ,dispaly member="objectname",value member="ObjectID"

placed condition in filter in report property window as
=fields.roleid==parameter.roleid and =fields.objectid==parameter.objectid
Object paramter is working but role parameter is not working.

plz can u clarify this one.

thx

I want to hide/show a Group Header at runtime depending on the value of a boolean variable. For example I want to give a choice to my user whether he wants to see each new group starting on a new page.

Do you a sample code that I can use to achieve this.

I recently upgraded to 2008 Q3 of telerik reporting and a new problem has arisen with my reports.

I have several Reports with Sub Reports.
Each sub report has a group header.
When I preview the report, the group header(s) of the sub reports are appearing twice.
If i export to PDF, TIFF, Excel, or any other format then the report is rendered correctly.

Any ideas?

I've been trying for 3 days to solve this with no luck.  Couldn't find anything on the forum about this either.

Here is the code for my Master Report.
This is a very simple report that serves as a standardized report header and footer with a SubReport in the details section.

I tried to upload the code example attached to this email to your code site, but it wouldn't accept the submission.

I'm trying to get my 10,000 points!

I found it almost impossible to find in the documentation "how to" bind a List<T> dataset to a report and also simultaneously update the Chart bar series with the current row of data.

I finally worked out how to do it, and I thought the example would be useful to your users (especially a novice like me) and it would be really useful to add it to the "getting  started" guide, I think.

Simply unzip the file to a folder and open in VS2008.  Build the solution then switch to "Preview".

Once you know how to get the current datarow values the report is processing, the ret is easy, but I didn't see anything about "viewDataRow" in the document,  hence my problem.

Hope this helps someone else.  Please let me know.

In win forms I have a report selector form and a report viewer form. I populate the report selector list from a database. This lets me add new reports without changing the code in either form. However, I cannot figure out how to call the user selected report generically. What I can do is to hard code the selection options in the viewer using a case statement:

        Select Case param 'param is a String of the user's selection passed from the calling form
            Case "Report1"
                Me.ReportViewer1.Report = New MyClassLib.Report1
            Case "Report2"
                Me.ReportViewer1.Report = New MyClassLib.Report2
        End Select

To make it more generic I want to use the passed parameter to specify the report. Something like this:

    Me.ReportViewer1.Report = New MyClassLib.param

Any suggestions as to how to accomplish this?

Thanks, Matthew

Hi,
I am trying to make a report that has a sub reports.
I have a business object Task as an IList<Task> with a collection TaskDates.

Now, I want all the TaskDates to show as a sub report of Task but I don't understand how to generate the dates.
I have tried this (don't know if it is the "best practice" way):
This is the sub report TaskDates event but it generates:
Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.DataRowView' to type 'PPS.DO.Task'.

Am I on the right track here or is it completely wrong! :)

OT:
When you are making sample projects of your products it would be super if you could make some of them with business objects and not only "object datasource" like examples made in design page.

This is probably more of a support ticket situation, but until we get our client.net accounts straightened out with the right license info, maybe I can get a hand from the forums...

Having installed version 2008.3 1105 of Telerik Reporting, an existing project built with version Q2 2008 SP2 is now broken.

We were binding subreports to object collections on the parent report’s data item, like so:

 

        private void SubReport1_NeedDataSource(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

        {

            var subReport = ((Telerik.Reporting.Processing.SubReport)sender);

            subReport.InnerReport.DataSource = ((System.Data.DataRowView)subReport.Parent.DataItem).Row["OrderDetails"];

        }

 

The yellow item (parent of a Processing.Subreport) was of type Processing.ReportItemBase in Q2 2008 SP2.  In 2008.3 1105, the type has changed to Processing.ProcessingElement, which does not have a DataItem property.

Any suggestions?
