Hi
I have a report that use report parameter to filter some data,and also I have master page with form decorator in it.
I set skin  property of report viewer to Hay (for example) to report get style.
but report parameter did not get any style.
Now my question is:
how can I set skin or style for report parameter controls in my report?
for example my date picker in report parameter or my drop down list have an Hay skin.

Hi Alirzea Fatehi,

The Report Parameter UI can't be customized, thus our suggestion is to use a custom UI for the parameter's as shown in the attached sample project.

All the best,
Peter

This is not entirely true. (There is no build-in way to do it).
Since the iframe and page is on the same domain, you can just inject a stylesheet into the head section of the DOM object.

Here is how you do it:
  1. In your aspx / ascx page, add the following javascript:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $('#ReportViewer1ParametersArea').load(function () {
    $(this.contentDocument).find('head').append('<link rel="stylesheet" href="/ThePath/ToYour/CSS/CustomReportParamArea.css">');
    });
    </script>
  2. Just remeber, that usually the ID of the frame will be a server generated ID, so you have to add the ClientIDMode="Static" parameter to your reportviewer.
    <telerik:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer1" runat="server" Width="960px"
                              BackColor="Transparent"
                              ViewMode="PrintPreview"
                              Font-Names="Arial"
                              ProgressText="Busy..."
                              ClientIDMode="Static">

    Hope this solve your problem.
    I do not know about the older IE7 type of browser, but in the new ones this does work.
    In my instance, I have created a DotNetNuke module can be used to show any report (based on what reports is found in your web applications' dll)
