Need a workaround for this. I need to be able to set a conditional expression for this column but it is greyed out. I understand that the reason for this is because I have a row group involved but removing the row group will not provide me with the desired result. I have also tried to use the hidden visibilty in the properties pane, but it just removes the column which creates a white gap in the table.
Any other workarounds out there for this?
One of the ways we have dealt with column visibility and groupings is to create multiple subreports and set them overlapping on each other. You then toggle the visiblity based on your needs.
If you add a column group you can then set the visibility on the group, rather than the column. This will make this a tablix rather than a tale

I am learning Ant Design, and I wonder how to design the table with expand icon as the first column and checkbox column as the second one, like this this
I see regular Table element has a default first column with a checkbox. I don't want to use the state variable as in the code example provided here.
I don't know how to set the columns as I want.
Thanks for all support.
I am fully aware that ideally, dataset should return only relevant rows with which to bind tablix.
However, in this particular case, I am utilizing same dataset to bind multiple tables and need to perform some filtering 'on the fly'.
I tried writing logic in column visibility of each cell to achieve desired output but there is no unique condition available on cell level .
I need to bind only single row from the dataset based on my unique column value, any pointers will be highly appreciated, thanks !
Although you haven't provided any code/data samples but may be you can utilize row visibility property to filter rows from dataset with which to bind individual tables as suggested here
I can hide a table with no data by using this function in the visibility expression - =Iif(CountRows() > 0, false, true)
But I have a textbox used as a heading for the table.
How do I hide the textbox if the table relating to it has no data?
Thanks
=iif(countRows("DataSet2") > 0, false, true)
Where DataSet2 is the name of your dataset. This is because you are now informing the expression to Count the Rows in DataSet2. As no rows exist, it is set to hidden.
Further information...
Is the heading for the table adjacent to the table? Are you aware you can add rows above a table to provide extra heading information?
For example you can Right Click the Row Header, Select Insert Row -> Above and a new Row appears. You can then merge the cells horizontally, and set a title for the table (for example)
Now when you set the table to be hidden, this header row is also hidden automatically.
I'm not sure this is applicable to your situation, but I thought it might be useful to add, to reduce the complexity of your report, if you were unaware of the possibility
I have a tablix on an SSRS report:
When I run the report it only returns 1 record!
I did a sql server trace, and the query that is being executed is returning 14 rows.
On the same report, I dropped another table, and put just one field on it, and it returns 14 as expected. I noticed that the difference between the one that works and that one that doesnt is:
How can I get those 3 horizontal lines on the one that doesn't work?
What could be my issue? What did I do wrong?
The screen shot shows you don't have any groups. You deleted the details group from the Tablix. You can add it back in by inserting a new group or building a new tablix object from scratch.
To add a group, click on a cell in the row that should have a group, in this case the [ReferredBy] cell. Select Add Group -> Row Group -> Adjacent Above. If your data is already grouped at the correct level of granularity, then select Show detail data in the Tablix Group screen. This will add the details triple bar in a row above your current row. If you need to group on something, then pick the field to group on. This will add a ) in a row above your current row. Copy and paste the contents of the cells in your existing row into the new row and delete your original row.
One row when you expect multiple sounds like a grouping issue. Debugging something like this I would create a new table element below the current one and drag and drop a single column from the dataset. If it returns 14 you know it is not the dataset being evaluated as a problem but the table's expression. If it is also only returning one you probably have a predicate, filter expression, or parameter setting limiting the scope down as well.
Probably, you set the expression for Textbox and not for the RowGroup.
Just find the Group Properties then put the same expression in Group On.
Has anyone figured out a good way to make a hidden table/matrix column take no horizontal space?
I could use some crazy conditionals to dynamically determine the contents of the columns (effectively sliding them leftward as far as possible), but that is nasty, plus doesn't allow for varying column widths in the columns to the right of the one I want to hide.
The idea is that when a parameter is set to "Any" then the column with the corresponding value should display. But when the parameter is set to an explicit single value the report doesn't need to contain that column any more (it will be separately listed as a condition at the top of the report).
This lets me use the same report in different situations, some requiring hiding unnecessary columns.
P.S. I think Microsoft should add expressions for object sizes, and I think they should add CanShrinkHorizontally to the CanShrink(Vertically) that already exists...
I think you are looking at the Hidden property of the column. Something that is hidden will still take up space. What you want to change is the Visibility of the column. Right click on the column header and click Column Visibility and set it there.
It looks like you can hide groups, and groups can be rows or columns.
Click the down-arrow next to "Column Groups" at the bottom of the Design pane, and turn on Advanced Mode. Modify the Hidden property of the Static group representing the desired column. Poof! You've made the entire column take up no space.
I struggled with this and came up with a workaround/solution.
In my scenario it was critical to have the RowGroups EffectiveDate, Description AND TransactionID. I wanted to hide the TransactionID column, because it was part of the grouping I couldn't set the Columns Visibility.
Before
After
So what I did was Merge Cells for the Description/TransactionID Header (and called it Transaction Type) and also for the first row of the tablix "Opening Balance".
Set the TransactionID textbox Hidden: True
The trick was to make the [DESCRIPTION] Right BorderStyle: None
Then set the Cell under [TRANSACTIONID] Top BorderStyle: Solid and Top BorderWidth 0.5
Alternatively make the fore color of the column you want to hide white and set border styles appropriately.
