In Visual Studio, create an ObjectDataSource, go through the wizard, enter parameters for reporting and then for the designer.
To change the reporting parameters, go to the Properties container and you'll see them.
To change the designer parameters, you need to right-click the designer icon, open the context menu to Configure, then go through the wizard to get to the last page.

That's a bit of a hassle. Can the Designer-mode Parameters be added to the Properties page, with "Parameters" re-defined as "Run-time Parameters"?

In code (designer.cs), I don't see where the designer-mode parameters are stored at all. I'd guess this is why they aren't available under Properties. :)

Where is that data stored, and why does this need to be such a mystery?

Thanks.

Hello,

I am rendering data dynamically and second page is coming blank. first page is having full data to occupy whole detail section of first page. I gave borders of footer, detail section, report table. but nothing is falling on second page.

But when records are less( up to half full or less than full of detail section of first page), it fits in one page only.

Please help.

Let me know if more info. is required.

Regards,
Manish

Areport as new contactreport
Areport.datasource=aTable
Aviewer.report=Areport


There are two problems i found
1.I have showZoomSelect as true but no option for zooming
2.in the report itself, during detail_ItemDataBound, I have 

PictureBox17.Visible = False

the preview doesn't go there for the 1st row

but the printout (PDF) is fine

any suggestions?

I understand that templates are new, and I thank Telerik for this welcome addition to the stand-alone designer. Here are a couple new ideas for consideration:

1) It doesn't look like there is a way to generate a .trtx via code. Until this changes, the process for deployment of new reports is similar to what it used to be: Load the report into the designer, export as template, then distribute the templates. Might there be a way to generate a TRTX from the command-line using an existing TRDX? Or perhaps even from a DLL with an embedded report?

2) In the designer, go to File>New and you see the list of Available Templates. Great. But close all documents and start on the Welcome page. Click New and there's no option to create a new report based on an available template. And click Open and there's no way to open an existing template. Given the plentiful amount of space on the Welcome page, I'm hoping a New from Template option can be added, and perhaps a Open Template option. As to what "opening a template" actually means, I'm thinking this would mean opening a template for modification, rather than creating a new report from a template, and then re-saving that with mods on top of an existing template. It's seems more elegant simply to open/save any given template.

3) The Recent Documents list doesn't include templates. It would be nice to be able to click a recent template to open it and create a new report from it.

4) Related: I think it would help if "Clear Recent Documents" gets changed to "Clear Recent Reports", and a new label button get added for "Clear Recent Templates". I can easily see someone wanting to remove all of the recent reports from the list without having to lose their recent templates from which they would create new reports.

Thanks.

I have a report where I use shape objects (in this case lines) to visually separate items. I export to PDF immediately.  attached are screenshots before and after upgrade of the reporting components.  The report still  looks the same in the designer with the lines placed correctly.  Can you tell me what is going on? thanks.

Hi everybody,

I have problem to make a report that my boss ask me to do.

It comprises 4 groups, the detail section, and the groups footers.

Into the detail section, there are a lot of textboxes whose values are calculated with expressions like this :

IIf(BooleanReturnedByAUserFunction(string field), aFieldOfDataSource, "+0")

The group above of this detail section comprises the same organisation of textboxes that the detail section.

Into these texboxes, I have to calculate the sum of the calculated fields of the corresponding textbox in the detail section.

It is possible with Telerik Reporting ?
If yes, i would be very grateful if you could help me.

Thanks and nice day.

Hi,
I prepared a report, and want to include it in a WPF window now. But to drag and drop the ReportViewer control, it is disabled in the toolbox as you can see in the picture attached.

I've included the references
Telerik.Reporting
Telerik.ReportViewer.Wpf
I tried selecting all Telerik Reporting references; it didn't work either.

What should I do now?

I need to calculate the rendered html font size in order to auto clean some content designed for full page width to fit nicely into a Multi-Column report.

I would love to invoke the private "MeasureContent" if I can instantiate my own context object.

Or some sort of HtmlTextBox.ToImage() to pull width/height from.


The problem is that there are an infinite number of possibilities generated from the horrific FREERICHTEXTBOX WYSIWYG control.  I'm using the HtmlAgilityPack to delete and merge redundant FONT tags so my end HTML is pretty tight.
I've also flattened the HtmlTextNodes into a List of Lists split by block level elements so that I can individual calculate the different rendered elements within each line to determine its width in order to shrink user defined padding "&nbps;" and input lines "______".

I was going to use the System.Drawing.Graphics.MeasureString, but I'm uncertain on how the FONT SIZE 1-7 becomes relative.
If the textbox fontsize is 11pt, or 1.2in, is the relative measurement type always in POINTS?

Thanks
Steve
