Hi, I've got some problems with overlaping labels in pie graphs and legends when I put them in bottom center. Another problem is the overlapping among data labels when the values are small (position outside end). How can I solve that?
Thanks in Advance.

I have a report with several check boxes. Many have a Yes and a No box, so one must be populated. I am using a SQL Server database and all of the fields that are related to the check boxes are data type bit. There is only one field in the database for each pair of check boxes, and the fields are all set to required, so there can never be a null value.

The desired behavior is, If the value is True, the Yes check box should be checked, and the No check box should be blank. If the value = False, the Yes check box should be blank and the No check box should be checked.

The current behavior is, if the value is False, both check boxes are blank. If the value is True, the Yes check box is checked, and the No check box has a dot in the middle.

It would be acceptable for both check boxes to be blank if the value is False. But it is not acceptable for the No checkbox to have a dot in the middle.

Here are the properties for the Yes check box:
All properties are the default values except:
Location and Size
Multiline - False
Text - Yes
Value - = Fields.TenPrint

Here are the properties for the No check box:
All properties are the default values except:
Location and Size
Multiline - False
Text - No
TrueValue - False
Value - = Fields.TenPrint

Is there a way to set the properties so I can get the desired behavior?


Thank you,
Jack

I have set up a SQLDataSource parameter for a report and can set its value at design time. I need to set the parameter value from a UI element at runtime. This is the code that I have (setting the TypeReportSource dynamically at runtime works fine, and I can query the report's parameter's collection without issue. However, once I update the parameter value, the report still uses the design-time value.

// Specifying the assembly qualified name of the Report class for the TypeName of the report source<br>
ViewerReportSource = new TypeReportSource {TypeName = selectedReport.ReportType.AssemblyQualifiedName};<
br><br>
// create instance of report
<
br>var report = (Report)Activator.CreateInstance(selectedReport.ReportType);
<
br><br>
// Set filters (datasource params)<
br>
var ds = report.DataSource as SqlDataSource;<
br>
ds.Parameters["@UserID"].Value = 999;


the value '999' is not passed into the query (I am using SQL Profiler to see the value passed in by the reporting framework). I see the value I set at design time.

OK I have looked in the docs to no avail.

Take a look at the attached files. What I want to do is get the value that is in the first section Total

(This is a group footer section in Telerik) in the example the value is 81 and I want to show this value in the report footer section. I want to do the same thing for the next group. Things work great when used under the group, and for the entire report SUM() works but how would I display a group value  that is the result of a SUM() on the group in the report footer?

 

I’m sure this can’t be hard but can’t seem to find the info on what to put into the text box value.

 

I was thinking it might be something like value =  MyReport. sectionNamesGroupFooter(0). Sum(Fields.Count) or something with the 0 representing the first group if I wanted the value of the second group I would use value =  MyReport. sectionNamesGroupFooter(1). Sum(Fields.Count)

 

Thanks

We are using Telerik Reporting Q3 2014 web report viewer in our MVC 4 project running .net 4.5. 
With our reports that use a textbox that require an integer input, we found an issue with data entry into those fields. This issue is only found in IE8+, Google Chrome, and Firefox are unable to replicate this issue. The issue is that whenever an integer is put into this field it is not being sent back to the report resolver and makes the report parameters inoperable for the report rendering it useless. Is this a known issue? 

I'm wanting to make custom report parameters for drop down lists, so i may be able to make that work with this particular field. If i can put in Kendo Datetime picker that just does a year it would work better... 

     So i guess my question after all this, Using the project that i specified above and using an MVC control for the report viewer, how do i go about creating custom parameters for the options on the report.

I have a c# dll file which creates a pdf report.
I use:
Log("start rendering")
                Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor reportProcessor = new Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor();
                Telerik.Reporting.Processing.RenderingResult auditAsPdf = reportProcessor.RenderReport("PDF", report, null);
Log("finish rendering")


my application creates dump file in runtime, so I added logs, and I see the first log print but I don't get the "finish" print.
right after I get your print: *** ReportProcessor.Render DONE in 00:00:02.6466816 *** in debug view, the dump file is created.

I use TelerikReporting 3.1.9.701

Any ideas why?

Hello,

I'm trying to build up a table-based report where I'm trying to keep the layout as tight as possible width-wise.  I'd like to be able to programmatically set the widths of my columns based on the width of the largest value in the data set so that the columns would be at the minimum width required to not wrap any of the content.  I was looking through the object model for the column and cell objects and couldn't figure out if there was a property that would get me the actual content size.  Do you know if there's a way to accomplish this?  Thanks so much for your help!

Regards,
Brian

Hi, 

So I have an HTMLTextbox declared inside my report, it's formatted into italic and bold by using HTML Tags like <i> and <b>, the texts were formatted properly but only on Report Viewer (both Print Preview and Interactive layout), I tried exporting it to PDF but when it was converted to a PDF file, all the HTML formatting that I did on the HTMLTextboxes were gone. Can someone explain to me why this is happening? Thanks

We've used the WCF implementation of the ReportService for telerik for quite some time.

Currently, every few days, our deployed project that's hosted on IIS randomly stops returning available reports. The service is still running, however it returns 0 reports. If I redeploy the project it works fine. 

Our setup is a solution with a service project, and 2 reporting projects that have DLL's included in the service project. I checked the bin folder in the deployed project to make sure the DLL's were still in there after the reports stopped returning.

Any ideas? Please help...

Okay Telerik. This is the kind of stuff that hurts my soul when I run into it. 

Some pretty basic stuff (after I have to add connection strings to my devenv.exe.config in order to use entityframework in my data class for designer preview).

I have a class, where I am loading data using EntityFramework in the constructor of this class. Currently, if I load an entity, and try to access a boolean value off of it, I receive a ridiculous error saying: 'Method not found: 'Boolean [NameSpace].[Entity].get_[PropertyName]().' This is not an issue of mis matched entities. If I literally comment out trying to access a boolean field, it works fine. As soon as I attempt to access a boolean value from a pulled entity, it gives me that error.

I haven't run into this issue until today, and quite honestly this was working fine before today. I'd love some feedback because I'm completely dead in the water on this.
