Situation:
Running a report on SQL Server Reporting Services
When I do a Preview of the Report all my charts look fine. No problems.
When I run a subscription for the report, the chart look different. Like completely different legends are gone etc.
Any ideas what the cause would be?
BTW the charts are Dundas Charts.
The format you are returning for the subscription is not the same as the preview (which is html). Try exporting from your preview to the format you are returning in your subscription. This should start to give you an idea what is going on.
do you have code in your dundas objects that controls legends, etc?
if so, there is a bug with the dundas components that will prevent any of that code from executing when a report is run from an execution snapshot or subscription

Today we have many google data studio reports, we manually style the report charts by using chart options like tableheader, tablefooter, ...).
Someone in the company asked me if we can reuse styling over reports instead of defining it each time again. By using this colab notebook (https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/community-visualization#0) we could build a simple bar chart with a CSS. However we do not have the need to build the chart by our self (community visualization with defined java script).
My question
Is it possible to define the style of the 'out of the box' google data studio reports in a way that it is reusable over different reports instead of doing it manually into each report? According my investigation I would conclude that this is not possible, however I would like to be sure before I communicate this into the company.
Thx
I have a report with 5 charts on it in SQL Server Report Builder 2016. In the "Design" window, the 5 charts appear to be on the same page. In the "Print Layout" window, the charts are now on three different pages. I would like all the charts to be on the same page when printed.
How do I fix this?
Make sure your design surface isn't expanded too far to the right. Make the ruler visible in combination with looking at the margins to make sure the graphs don't spill over to the next page because they are too far to the right. This is a common problem and I wish the designer had some way to indicate this is the case.
I recently used the work around in this post to get my SSRS reports to render in Chrome. However, now that my reports are working in Chrome, I'm noticing a strange rendering issue.
I use horizontal lines in my reports that I draw using the "line" feature in SSRS. When I run the report in Chrome, there is a gray square that appears below each line which causes my report not to look so great. I've attached a screenshot containing an example.
Does anybody know how to get the gray squares to go away?
I've identified a work around that is working for my purposes. I replaced my lines with rectangles, and resized the rectangles to look like lines. My report now looks great.
Here are a few solutions if you are familiar with CSS or have access to edit the \Styles folder within your SSRS Server.
a.) Tiny boxes appear when rendering SSRS reports in HTML viewed from Chrome
b.) How to apply customized css to SSRS report
c.) ReportViewer showing broken images in Chrome
After researching these solutions above, either of them will solve the issue and make those nasty empty boxes go away. ~ The most effective solution I found was editing the CSS inside the \Styles folder, because it then applies that fix server wide.
I created a Subreport in SSRS 2005 with a bar chart and a textbox above, just as a simple progress bar. I'll use it in a report to show a percentage.
In the Report preview it works fine and the progressbar looks like this:
Preview
But when I the deploy the report on the report server I get this:
Deployed Report
It's not really new to me, that sometimes the output in the preview differs from the server, but unfortunately I just can't find a solution for this issue.
Thx in advance
I think what you are seeing is a browser issue.
The default css that SSRS outputs is very biased towards IE. (It doesn't play well with IE9 either)
This causes a lot of issues on browsers like firefox and safari.
If you really must get it to display that way, remember that SSRS does allow you to create custom rendering extensions(Would be too much effort to fix a small bug though).
I have built a simple report and run it successfully in test winform apps but when I try to run the same report in my production winforms application, the report just doesn't show up in the viewer. I look at the ReportViewer control after InitializeComponent and everything looks fine.
Are there debugging techniques or gotcha's that might be able to point me to why the report is not showing. It feels like there should be an error of some sort but it just displays a blank form.
This was a simple mistake.
In implementing the report viewer in a MVP environment, I managed to not notice/implement the RefreshReport in the Form Load. Once I called Refresh Report, the report showed up.
