Hi,

In our client-server based application we use the stand-alone Telerik Report Designer tool to create the reports. We store the report definitions as XML (*.trxd) and distribute them to the client apps. This offers great flexibility in creating new on-the-fly reports which have no binary dependency with our application. Also it bypasses the need to compile reports so non-developers are able to create new or change existing reports.

We now need to provide globalization support. The help documentation states an approach to add globalization support to the reports but this seems to work only for code-based reports, not for XML. The Report Designer tool does not offer a "Localizable" property that can be used when creating code-based report definitions.

The best I can think of is to add specific tags in the report definition (e.g. %USERNAME%) and have custom language files. Since I will distribute the reports from the server we can preprocess the reports e.g. to replace text tags. Resx files are a bit restrictive in my scenario because this would create a binary dependency.

Would this be a good approach in my scenario? Or what alternatives would I have?

How can we implement WebServiceddatasource in standalone Telerik report? 

Also, I have gone through WebServiceDataSource Component I wasn't able to the Telerik.Reporting.WebServiceDataSource DLL or the corresponding NuGet package inside the application.

Under the topic 'How To: Create a Custom Parameter Editor' my understanding is that you can change the default editor into a dropdown. When I try the example given the report parameters section is not displayed on the report. What can be the reason for this?

Hello, I have a telerik report page. The pdf output at my table;

I want the table format;

aa  bb  gg  hh

cc  dd  ii  jj 

ee  ff  kk  ll

How can I resume the table to the right?

Thanks.

Hi,

I am trying to add reference to an assembly in "Standalone Telerik Reporting Designer" to be used for Object Data Source.

In a link below it describes how to do that: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/standalone-report-designer-extending-configuration

But it is strange that I can't find where this section/file is located :) 

Can you please help me to find from where to open and edit that configuration file?

 

Thank you,

 

The report designed by standalone report designer shows display issues in android and ios devices when exported in Excel.

  Trialing out Telerik Report Server   .    When trying to add a 'NEW REPORT' ,   I enter the correct server URL (http://{server}:83/) and local account set up in 'User Management',  but it keeps coming up with 'Error while logging to server.  Please check the server URI and credentials'

Hello,

 

We're currently working on an application which supports dynamic properties, created by the users of our application. We want these properties to be available to our users when they're designing a report with the standalone report designer.

In our codebase (c#) a class with dynamic property support looks like:

 

Let's say one of our users created 2 dynamic properties for Employee:

1. Title
2. Adres

When we load Employee into the report designer as object data source, it displays:

• Id
• Name
• DynamicProperties

But what we would actually like to see is:

• Id
• Name
• Title
• Adres

 

We thought of a couple solutions for our problem:

• Use web service data source so we can generate json, based on the dynamic properties. We don't actually want to use a web service for this.
• Runtime compile a new class with the flattened properties and use this as object data source. Seems like a lot of effort for what seems to be a small problem.

 

Since we don't actually want to use any of these solutions I was wondering if there is an easier way to deal with this problem. 

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Kind regards,

Rick Brants

Data in table column gets cut when report is rendered on samsung tablet device. The data is correctly displayed on webpage on desktop.

I have set the multiline property to true, textwrap to true.

Attached the screenshot where data gets cut in Training Module column

 

Hi,

I need a chart with one or more line series, configured in stand alone RD.
The line series are Numerical on both axes (it's a temperature (X) vs value (Y) plot).

The data for the Graph will be provided at runtime through object reference.

My data source format is as follows:
```
class Data
{
   List<double> Temperature {g;s;}
   List<double> Value {g;s}
}
```
I was able to 'import' the dll to the designer and the data source was set up correctly (I know this because I'm able to use other data sources to successfully populate other elements of the report).

----------------------------------

What I did so far?
* I inserted a new line graph into the report
* I tried setting the Category to Temperature and Value to Value in the Wizard
* I named the graph to be able to find it at runtime and set it's DataSource
* In various attempts to configure the graph I tried setting the X and Y axes of the Graph to Numerical type or X to Category and Y to Numerical (I get the legend and axes preview in the designer)
* At runtime I set the DataSource of the Graph the same way as DataSource of a Table (which works ok for the table): `((Graph)(report.Items.Find("nameOfGraph", true)[0])).DataSource = dataSourceObject;`

The problem I have is that there are no series in the generated report in the Graph while other parts of the report are populated correctly.

Could you please provide me with a walktrough of how to configure a line Graph in Report Designer with the assumption that the data will be provided at runtime?

Thanks!
