how to fit the birt report table not properly fit into pdf size because it showing only few data
On Format
You are using the web viewer in your example. If you want a PDF, you need to press the arrow next to the viewer button and choose "View Report as PDF".
On Size
Most elements have a Properties tab that lets you select width and height relative to the parent element. If you set this to 100%, it will use the full width/height of the parent. However, if single elements have a minimum absolute width - like having lots of columns - the 100% may be forced to be ignored. Then you have to change the single elements first.
On Orientation
You might have a fixed set of columns, but it still does not fit the report result. Changing the orientation to landscape can help here - this is especially useful for wide tables. Orientation can be changed in the Master Page tab under Properties -> General -> Orientation.

I am using Tableau for data visualization and generating lists that can be exported to Excel.
However, when the amount of columns get too big, I cannot see all my columns in the view (They are there though). The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a horizontal scrollbar. I can scroll vertically through my rows, but I haven't found a way to do this horizontally to look through my columns, the same way you would do at the data source tab.
If anyone could help me to figure out how to achieve this that would be awesome! I am using Tableau Desktop version 2018.3 on a Mac.
Edit: The problem also seems to be on Windows and is not related to the maximum amount of columns or the view mode.
Example image of the described problem
You are not getting scrollbar because you are viewing it on a worksheet. Try putting it on the dashboard and set dashboard size to fixed and increase width to accommodate all columns.
now you will get horizontal scrollbar for sure
thanks
Besides updating the horizontal row/column label limit #Bernardo mentioned here:
You'll need to make sure you've have selected "Standard" from the display option list at the top of the screen. That options prevent Tableau from fitting everything into the height, width or view of your current display.
Tableau shows a horizontal scroll bar for measures, but not for dimensions. When only dimensions are included on either the Columns or Rows shelf, the lower horizontal scroll bar will not display. Dimensions are treated as headers for measure aggregations and do not generate a horizontal scroll bar when they exceed the width of the view.
To change the Table Layout and increase the number of columns and rows in your table, go to:
Analysis > Table Layout > Advanced
Set each of the Maximum values to 16, which is the limit allowed.
I have a couple of interactive grids on my page and one of them is overflowing the region. I have tried resizing columns but no matter what I do, the grid bounces right back - overflowing the region. It almost seems as if there is a minimum width property set somewhere but I cannot figure it out.
Under Advanced settings for the interactive grid there is a column that says custom attributes. This field allows you to type in CSS that can override the default CSS. My recommendation would be to play with this column with commands such as
style="width: 90%;"
This would reduce the maximum width the interactive grid will take up (from 100% of screen to 90% of screen).
Additionally when looking at the page you can hit F12 to open a web inspect that could help show more details about the CSS of the grid. If this doesn't help could you provide a screenshot or demo so we can further assist.
IN SSRS:
I can only add Solid color fills to the data cells inside a matrix.
How do I add Stripes or Patterns as background fill instead of a solid color.
Is there a particular color code like '#xxxx' for stripes?
There are certain rows in my report that need to have stripes or patterns as backgrou fill.
Thanks
I have found some methods around this:
1- You can use image gradients to fill text boxes by right-clicking the cell and selecting text box properties. You can use the Fill tab to select a small image or item that has a gradient or pattern and apply it within your cell(s)/report.
2 - Another approach is to use a combination of Font/Color/Bold/Italic/Underline and Boarder colors/weight to achieve your desired result.
3 - Apply a gradient-style scheme to your report by using one or more colors and dynamically changing the hue as you go up or down the report. That way, the top could be darker than the bottom, or vis-versa.
I hope this helps.
Numerous fonts can be used.
Open the Character Map
Select Arial in the Font drop down
Scroll to near the bottom, select the cross character
Hit the Select button a number of times, grab as many characters as the SSRS textbox may require to fill its width
Click copy
In SSRS select the textbox then Ctrl-P to paste
Experiment with font size and font color to get the desired effect
Setting padding to zero may help
Setting row CanGrow to False may help
I find there is a little gap between cells vertically but it is close to perfect for me. There is likely to be a character in Arial or another font that works even better.
I wanted to draw a rectangle with rounded corners in SSRS. But, after lot of research i got to know that currently there is no property for that. So, i am trying to use an image of a rectangle with rounded corners and on top of that trying to align the table and other controls within the image. But, when i am previewing it or exporting it to a PDF file, first the image is getting displayed, then below that all other controls comes. Am i doing anything wrong. Please let me know.
Why don't you try to enclose your image rectangle and other controls etc. within an SSRS Rectangle with BorderStyle = None...
Try following:
Create an image (the rectangle with rounded corners) in your favourite image drawing program. I did mine in Microsoft Paint
and save it as JPEG.
In SSRS report design, in Report Data pane, right click on Images >> Add Image and point to the image that you created in Step 1. (Untitled, in my case see the fig. below)
In SSRS report design, add a Rectangle from the Toolbox to the design surface and in the Properties Pane:
a) look for the BackgroundImage property Click its + sign. then
b) Enter values for Source as Embedded, BackgroundRepeat as Clip and the Value property , when you click the dropdown for its values, should show you the name of the image that you embedded in Step-2, select this name
Resize your rectangle to fit the shape and add your items to this rectangle.
EDIT:
Regarding the question in the Comment, I don't think that the size of the image rectangle can be increased dynamically. If that's the case then you may need to find some other work-around

I am trying to center the report title placed within report header on RDLC matrix report - this should have been quite straight-forward but I am struggling to achieve it.
I am using VS 2010 (SP1) report designer to edit the RDLC. The report is quite simple - it contains report header with two text-boxes and body containing matrix (cross-tab) report. Out of two Report Header text-boxes, one is used for display static report title while other is used to display the single report parameter.
The report content is as I want except I am unable to center the report title. The title get centered within the text-box width but I could not find a way to say that text-box should spawn entire page width. I cannot set text-box width to the page width because
if text-box width is set more than matrix width by say x inches then when report is rendered, content width gets enlarged by x inches from a rendered matrix resulting in page-width overlap.
it will need re-setting the text-box width if margins or page-size is changed
And a year and a half later... I used your solution but then found another one:
Clicking on the empty area of the report there is a property called ConsumeContainerWhitespace. It indicates wether white space to the right and below a matrix (or any content that can be resized) should be preserved. Might have other side effects though.
When the report gets wider than the page it looks like this in the viewer:
This will be printed on two pages and on each one the title will be centered.
Alas! got some time to play with RDLC - here's the work-around. Although, its not exactly what I want (a centered report title), its close enough!
Basic idea here is that matrix (cross-tab) report grows its width so you need to associate the report title with the matrix. So remove report header or page header and instead add one or more static row above the row-group in the matrix. Use these rows for Report tile and report parameters. By centering the report title text-box, you get some-what centered report title.
