I have a problem with my rdl report cutting off the column chart I put in when viewing it in print layout. The layout of the page is correct as no additional pages appear in the print layout.
I have a column chart that consists if 11 columns (categories) and it only seems to display 9 and half of the tenth off. It does not matter if I put the page orientation in landscape of portrait, the same problem exists. It also does not matter what size I make the chart, it seems to cut of the last column in print layout.
When I export the file to pdf then it works perfecty.
Can anyone assist me please?
Kind Regards
You can try to change size of the print page and orientation. press F4 on Design screen, you will see properties bar. There is a button (looks like a wierd spaceship or key) named "property pages".Paper size, orientation, mergins etc. can be set here

I’m using the mailmerge feature of Gembox.Document to produce reports.
I’m having issues with the sizing of a picture.
I have created a merge field inside a table cell, and I would like the picture to occupy the maximum of the cell size without changing it’s aspect ratio.
For now it’s inserting the picture, but the ratio is all messed up.
I’ve read in the help page that I could put a shape my merge field but after many attempts I don’t know how to do it, when I try to draw the shape in my word template, it doesn’t go inside my merge field.
Can anybody help me with this ? Either to fix the aspect ratio, or how to use the shape…
Cheers
Take a look at the second Merge Pictures example, its input "MergePicturesWithTemplates.docx" file has MergeFields with Shapes inside.
To place a Shape inside a MergeField, draw the shape, set it as "In Line with Text", and drag it inside the field.
Now that you have a shape as a placeholder for your image, you can add switches to MergeField in order to keep the aspect ratio of the merged picture:
\x - resize resulting picture horizontally, keep the template shape's height.
\y - resize resulting picture vertically, keep the template shape's width.
\x \y - resize resulting picture either horizontally or vertically.
To add a switch, press ALT + F9 in MS Word, that will reveal field's code and then write the switch within.
I'm using VS2019 and the default Winforms Pie Chart.
The legend appears as in the attached image.
I've tried playing with the chart size, and the larger I make the chart, the less truncated the legend text becomes, but it's going to have to be huge to fit it all in...
Any ideas why and how to change that so it's never truncated regardless of text length or chart size?
Thanks
EDIT:
Looking at the TextWrapThreshold and IsTextAutoFit properties of the Legend, the text is still graphically truncated, although it seems it is being "wrapped" like specified. This is still an undesired result..
What other solution is there besides enlarging the chart..?
#Yafim I'm moving the answer here because I need to post some images. You mean this is happening?
If this is the case, and you don't want the full legend text to appear inside the sections of the doughnut (because they are overlapping the doughnut itself), you can show the values only by setting the Series->Label->IsValueShownAsLabel property to true and get something similar to this:
Not sure if this was your problem, (you already showed in you photos you know about this)...
I got this problem that drive me crazy. I have a project in VS2013 with v.13.0.15.1840. I'm using a auto grow field (has his own section) in crystal reports that is displaying a text interpreted as RTF. The problem is that on preview and even paper, the right side of the text is cut off (see screenshot). If the text is justified the it shows OK but I have situations when I need the text align to left.
So far I tried but with no effect:
Setting margins manually on Format Object, Paragraph.
Selecting no printer,Disassociating formatting page size and printer paper size.
Making the field smaller horizontally.
Does anyone know a solution for this?
The field on designer:
Edited for further explanations:
The RTF code can be viewed at https://gist.github.com/andySF/7ca61ffbe6ab6da53ca1
Also another try was to put my field in a textbox and then setting the right margin of the textbox to 3cm. It appears that the margin is somehow overridden after the first paragraph.
Use
Modyfi your datasource text rtf before send in to report CR
model.Document= model.Document.Replace("\pard", "\pard\ri380")
I'm creating a trial project wherein my window has two grids, left grid is sort of a table that has labels and textboxes each row and asks for a specific part of the invoice like item, name, address stuff like that and the right grid is to show a preview of the invoice that the left side is creating.
I thought about using a document viewer on the right side but I thought that anything I open there would be static and if I put values on the textboxes on the left grid, it wouldn't matter since I opened a standalone document to view on the right grid.
I thought about just creating a table out of the right grid and have the default values and populate the other ones when a user types something on the textbox and make it function as the preview but then I don't know how would I go about and printing it and also, it has about 45 rows which I couldn't fit in the grid without it being unreadable (because I had to cram 45 rows of data inside that small grid)
So is there a tool in the toolbox that could potentially create a interact-able grid? I tried the grid control but I can't seem to only make it show 4 columns because that's all I need, I don't want it to show E and the rest of the alphabet because I want it to resize accordingly with only 4 columns to make it more readable.
Oh and I also have devexpress installed so you guys could also recommend something I can use from there. Thank You.
I think this is the best solution since it does what I wanted it to do.
I created a scroll view and placed a grid inside it then set the length accordingly to show it in a reasonable size and let the scroll bar do its magic for me to see the rest of the grid without compromises of the content's size.
When adding an indicator to a report as per the image, is it possible to have all the indicators the same size regardless of the cell size (so centre them all rather than stretching to fill the cell)
Use rectangles within the cells of the table: within these, objects can be easily sized to not take full height or width.
Yes, sizing the rectangles and their contents can be annoying. I don't try to do much of this with the mouse, I quickly fall back to the properties window where I can type position and size.
try clicking on the indicator area (default name ie GaugeReportItem) within GaugePanel. You will get Size and position in Properties on the right hand side where you can choose AutoLayout. This will in effect center and resize gauges based on the cell width, height and your settings.
Hope it helps.
Exporting SSRS report to Excel did not go as expected.
Report with indicators in rectangles exported to Excel was randomly adding 0 height rows between the records which was not what I wanted. My indicators where simple green ticks and red crosses, based on true false. I have tried everything I found out there, even a subreport for indicator. No luck...
Figured it out that the indicators randomly outgrows the parent item when you export it, just like a chart. Ended up with saving a tick and a cross as an image. Then used an image control(with fit proportional set) and embedded Image with conditional statement to pick specific image. Also added some padding not to overlap borders.
The only problem I could think of is if the background of the report is not white as I could not change the background color of the cell the Image is and there is no option for the Image background.
Hope this helps someone else.
