When I update to Reporting R3 2016, fields or text on most of my reports disappears. Before I spend a few hours trying to track the issue down, does anyone have any idea what has changed that would cause the text to disappear?

This kind of issue has been a problem with Telerik over the years. I don't understand how you can release a new version of a development library that breaks developers existing code. Now that you are owned by Progress, is there a plan to make your products more reliable?

I have a crosstab tab that sums up the amount sold during a month. This works very well. I want to average the monthly sum but only using month that have a non-zero amount sold.

For example:

Product      May   Jun   Jul   Avg
123             10      9        8      9
124             15     -        10   12.5
125               6     10      12     9.333
126               -        -         7     7

So product 124 is divided by 2 instead of 3 and product 123 divided by 1.

I have looked at the forums and used google but I cannot figure out how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
        Am using Telerik Reporting Q3 2016 version, i have attached screen shot for my questions, below are my questions

1) In the X axis, we are showing the value of the bar like 319477,319478 etc.,, I need the gap of value should be reduced 
between the x axis line and label value or else it would be in near to the line, Also the value should be in the center of the 
bar, now it is showing the value before the bar starts

2) In the Y axis, am showing the value in the left side like 0,0.2,0.4 etc, now at the same time i need to show the value in 
right side from 0% to 100% (0%,10%,20%,etc.,)

Thanks & Regards,
     Mano

I need to generate a PDF via c# code so that I can save it off. I found the examples in how to do it, but I cant seem to find how to do it against a Telerik Report Server. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Nick

Our client is looking at purchasing the reporting package from Telerik and we are putting together some sample reports with the trial.  We are stuck on a particular issue, however.  We cannot get the table borders to show properly when reports are multiple pages.  I have taken a screenshot of the table border settings and a screenshot of the rendered report.

We are nearing the end of our evaluation but this is a "must have" for the client as it's crucial for a professional looking report.

Perhaps I am missing some settings?

Thanks,

Robert

Hi,

 

I added a Navigate to Report action (link to an Subreport object) to a textbox. I can click on it in the Preview Tab. However in the generated PDF the textbox isnt even clickable.

 

Thanks

Hi,

I want end-users to design their own reports to run in an application where the database connection is dynamic. This was sort-of covered in a previous post but now that I understand things better I wanted to ask the right questions. The options I have got are:

1. Use sql connector in the designer with a 'shared' connection string (where the alias is the same name as stored in web.config). This works great as the user can do their own joins using the query builder, slap the reports into the website and they work. BUT there is no connection string in my web.config, it is stored elsewhere.

2. Extend the standalone designer so the users can use an Object Datasource to use my custom dll BUT then all the joins need to be pre-defined in the dll code. (I have already got this working, but joining all the tables is a real problem + confusing for the uesr)

 

So what I want to ask - is there any way I can use case 1 by switching the connection string at run time (I have all the info available in memory, it's just not static in web.config)?

I want my report to have have Landscape orientation. Changing the preview is not a problem:

          Report.PageSettings.Landscape = true;

However when I click print button the default printer setting is Portrait. I cannot convince my customer to have Landscape as a system wide default setting so I need to change it before opening PrintDialog. It can be done too:

            PrintDialog dialog = new PrintDialog();
            LocalPrintServer.GetDefaultPrintQueue().DefaultPrintTicket.PageOrientation = PageOrientation.Landscape;
            dialog.PrintQueue = LocalPrintServer.GetDefaultPrintQueue();
            dialog.PrintTicket = dialog.PrintQueue.DefaultPrintTicket;
            dialog.PrintTicket.PageOrientation = PageOrientation.Landscape;
            dialog.ShowDialog();

The problem is that ReportProcessor.PrintReport does not accept PrintTicket (returned by PrintDialog) and want PrinterSettings which are not available under .NET 3.5.

Is there any way to overcome the problem?

Any suggestion would be appreciated

I have a report that is made up of four different charts, that all use the same data, just grouped and displayed differently.  Originally, I had them all pointing to the same DataSource, but then found that it was running the same exact query four times, one for each part.  Then I came across this thread: http://www.telerik.com/forums/multiple-database-hits-for-same-datasource which seems to explain the solution.  I tried the proposed solution, which is setting the top-level Report's DataSource to the DataSource I want, and then for each part, setting a Binding of DataSource = ReportItem.DataObject .  However, what I get instead, is that the entire report is repeated multiple times, one for each row in the data.  Now the query is run way more than four times!  What is going on?  Why does the solution work differently now?  Did something change in the way it works?  How do we implement this now?
