I have report viewer with a dark blue background and when the report loads, the default progress indicator with the white background does not look good (see attached). I can't seem to find any accessor for setting my own image in place of it. There are no style sheets in the reporting dir. Is this even possible?

Hi,
we like to deliver the reports within our silverlight App.
Means: The User clicks the 'Reportbutton' and the report should be open in one of our application windows (UserControl).
Any idea if and how this is to be implemented?

thx.

I have constructed a collection of data series items. Each data series has multiple data points. 

I am binding all this to a bar chart. That data binding is working fine however for some reason beyond my comprehension the reporting engine has decided that all my bar chart items will be aligned to the left side of the chart. 

Currently the way my report is rendering is unacceptable. Is there a way to fix this (Please see attached screenshot)

Cheers !

Hi

I need to save a reports parameters and their values. Passing the report to the report viewer control makes life alot easier as the control builds all the neccesary parameters.
Is there a way to get the event that the Preview button fires? i would think that this event will pass all parameters and values to the actual report for it to be rendered, and i can simply get the parameters and values from its event args.
If its not possible, is there another way that can be helpful for my scenario.  

thanks

Hi All,

I have a multi-tenant database based on Microsoft SQL Azure to store my client info and I am using Telerik Report to for my Report modules.

Since I have to pull info from different database for different client, how do i dynamically configure my connection at web.config in order to know which database am i pulling from?

Please advise
Thanks You.

Eg.

<connectionStrings>

    <add name="ReportClassLib.Properties.Settings.ClientDB" connectionString="**;Initial Catalog=DB_1;User ID=**;Password=**"

            providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

</connectionStrings>

Client 1 is DB_1, Client 2 is DB_2,……

I am using version 2011 Q2.
I am trying to get some HTML outputs to work in the WebForms viewer, and am using the RadEditor as the means by which to collect this information.
I have stripped down the input to the HTMLTextBox to those tags that are supported such as :

The issue is that the <ul> items do not show the bullet points in the HTML view.
The items display correctly when exported to PDF.
Can you advise on a course of action?
Thanks,
Steele.

I am programmatically building my bar chart, but I have been unable to set the colors for the bar chart bars. Any suggestions or ideas? I am using Q2 2011 Telerik Reporting.
