Hello there,
We have just downloaded recently a trial version of Telerik Reporting, its Q3 version released.
And before buying the product, our project manager asked us to make some test, essentially some "performance" tests...
Actually, I produced a report with 500 lines from database. Those lines will be grouped by two columns, and of course : the rendered table contains some agregate value (Sum).
Curiously, the RenderReport() took about 1 minute to render these 500 lines, no matter what the output format is (pdf, mhtml, xls, ...) :-(
Notice that I have put many debug breakpoints to check exactly where the performance lack resides, and thus; found that it occured when I call the RenderReport() method. In other words, the problem is not related to database access.

I tryied to remove the agregate cells, but it didn't change nothing. By the same way, I removed the grouping column, and of course, the report took about 40 seconds to be rendered, but I think it's not normal at all, cause we treated actually 500 lines, and in the future; we surely will need to produce more than 1000 lines inside one report.

Is there any known issue to avoid this performance trouble ? I just want to add eventually that the old report engine that we used was oracle-report, and we plan to go with some other third party technologies like Telerik. But with oracle-report, the same report was rendered after about 10 seconds, on the same machine, accessing the same database, with the same code architecture (asp.net mvc)

Thanks in advance

car dashboard show kpi,

Can someone point me to a sample report that uses two Y axis?

I am trying to follow the instructions in the documentation
http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/graphhowtoaddsecondaryaxis.html
but I keep getting an "object cannot be null" error from the CoordinateSystems dialog at step 2

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

Does the Telerik Reporting Q3 2012 support Drill Down charts?

Thanks...

Hi all-
I am using the following line in a standard text box.
=Fields.[Attorney for Child]+', child's attorney' and I need to escape the apostrophe in child's.
The only thing I could find says to place brackets around the character but that also generates an error.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi all,

       I have a report with multiple pages, whereas last page contains a letter. all the other pages except last page should have a page border around detail section. when I add the page border it applies to all pages in the report. I tried setting binding expression as well as expression to set the page border color to transparent conditionally by comparing pageNumer = pageCount etc..

this doesnt work at all. would appreciate if u all could help me on this. 

With about 60 days of Telerik reporting behind me, i have a new report to do and i'm not sure what is the best solution.  

The report is a sales report by customer.  The client wants to be able to have two date ranges for comparison.  So the report outline would be:
salesman
customer
Date Range 1  (sales, cost, margin)
Date Range 2  (sales, cost, margin)

I know it can be done with a sub-report for DateRange2 but i'm curious whether a List  or something else would be more efficient.  ( Not sure how to link a list since ReportItem object usage is flagged as obsolete)  Or maybe it's two sub-reports?

I also thought about a cube, but  date ranges will not always be the same time frame - i.e. sometimes may be a week, sometimes a month, sometimes 6 weeks.

User input (parameters) would be salesman, startdate 1, enddate 1, startdate 2, and enddate2. Input for startdate2 and enddate2 are not required (that is sometimes the report will be run with one date range and other times may be run with 2 date ranges)

The final criteria is that the margin in the newer date range should have conditional format (green if bigger margin, red if smaller margin)


Appreciate any and all comments.

Hey.
i have a bar chart which has several series. each series has several items.
i need the series name to be displayed in the x axis (instead of the step numbers).

whenever i add a a ChartAxisItem (see attached code), the display is massed up (massed up.png image vs' fine.png).

please provide help.

code:

HiveEventsChart.PlotArea.XAxis.RemoveAllItems();
foreach (var series in HiveEventsChart.Series)
{
	var axisItem = new ChartAxisItem();
	axisItem.TextBlock.Text = series.Name.ToShortString(2);
        axisItem.Appearance.RotationAngle = 30;
        HiveEventsChart.PlotArea.XAxis.AddItem(axisItem);
}

thanks.

Hello,

Perhaps some documentation about implementing the new report viewer?? I would like to add it on my web pages (asp.net) instead the old one and use the code behind to set the report source as before (with of course slight changes when necessary).

Thanks
