I have a report with a parameter set at the datasource level to pull the Top N results from the database.

I would like to be able to display the current value of the Top N datasource parameter in a text box in the body of my report.

Is there a way to do this simply?

i.e.

Datasource Parameter: @topCount

Text Box: Top {@topCount} Records by Total

I have a custom report resolver that implements IReportResolver.Resolve(string). The execution of this method does quite a few things that can go wrong in my setup. I catch and log the exceptions but throwing it will always cause the reporting service to hide the actual exception and will replace it with a generic "Unable to get report parameters: Report 'reportId' cannot be resolved."

How can I display the actual exception to the user (I'm using the html5 report viewer)?

I have a graph that has a sql data source defined, but I want to be able to hide the graph if there is no data being returned from the data source.  I tried to bind the Visible property, but the Fields list is empty even though I have the data source defined and it is working fine when there is data.  I thought I would be able to do Visible = Count(Fields.PatName) > 0 since PatName is a field being returned by the SQL data source.

I would like to know if you guys plan to provide localization support for the Report Designer, by this i mean allowing the UI to be in a different language other than english.

I am trying to find a way of adding interactive sorting to my reports that are developed in the TRDX standalone format.
I have searched various threads and I see how it can be done using the c# approach in visual studio, but when I try to repeat that in the standalone designer i.e. by creating a parameter and passing this into the sort field of the table it does not work.
Any suggestions.
This to me is a key area for improvement to make it simpler.

I have been able to add a chart to my report and bind the data to the chart. I have even gotten the X-axis to display in time, but I have 2 design requirements which I cannot figure out.

    -    1. How do I provide a custom step when I am using the time value format? If I use autoscale, it does provide some stepping, but it puts a buffer before the beginning of the first time and another buffer at the end. If I change autoscale to false, I cannot enter a label step large enough to display as many as I want. 

    -    2. How can I display both date and time as the label on each step of the X-axis? I can do date or time, but have not found a way to do date and time together. The chart could span 1 - 3 days.

Can anyone help me resolve either of these issues?

I just ran the updates from the control panel for my installation of Telerik Reporting.  The toolbox in VS 2013 shows a Telerik Reporting Q2 tab with just the pointer and Chart controls available.  All of the other controls, like the text box, are greyed out.  My project was created as a Telerik Reporting Library.

What needs to be done to allow me to use the controls that are greyed out?

The attached files are screen shots of this.

Hello,

In the report I am trying to make, each row in the dataset can have different types of data associated with it. 

i.e.  Record1 uses Data1,Data2,Data3.
Record2 uses Data3, Data4.

When displayed, Record1 would only show the Data1, Data2, and Data3 sections while hiding the Data4 section.  Likewise, Record2 would hide the Data1 and Data2 sections while displaying the Data3 and Data4 sections.

In other reporting systems, I was able to add multiple detail sections and hide them if the record did not use that type of data.  As I cannot have multiple detail sections in a single report, I was hoping to pack the data into panels and hide the panel if the data was not applicable to that record.  However, the details section's height does not automatically scale.  So for some records with virtually no data associated with them, a large blank area is still shown for that record.  I want to eliminate that.

Is there a way to trim the excess whitespace or is this type of report not supported?
