enter image description hereI have a telerik report with table,the table contains a column group.
Currently if there are less columns there is a blank space on the right side of the page and if the columns count exceeds it goes to the next page.
Is there any way i can fit the table to the page width.
In the report the marks column is a group column. As seen in the image there is a blank space on the right side of the page. I want the column width to change dynamically to fit to the page.
Thanks.
Got the solution .
I had to set the binding rules for the column to set its width

I have a table, which is listing the name of benefits and it is only 1 column (just name of the benefit).
I'm wondering if there is any native function of BIRT Report Designer to produce rows not only vertically but also populate horizontally to 3-4 columns.
Something like below:
Benefits List
Benefit-1 Benefit-3 Benefit-5
Benefit-2 Benefit-4 Benefit-6
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Ok, I found a solution!
Under the following link there is a Eclipse Community Page Link recommendation about an additional computed column. Even though I don't have any computed column, the recommendation gave me an inspiration. Instead of creating an additional column, I used the rownum that is used generally to bind dataset parameter. For the table row, I created "visibility" condition that checks if the rownum + 1 is divided by 3. Depending on what is the result, it will be hidden or viewed:
Main Grid
It includes a grid with 2 rows and 3 columns. 1 row is merged to view the header. In each column of second row, the same table is placed with the same dataset.

Select Table Row

Set the Visibility

The syntax basically means: "Do not show the row if the division result is not 1".
For the second column, you will need to compare with 2: (row.__rownum + 1) % 3 != 2 and the third column with 0: (row.__rownum + 1) % 3 != 0
Hope it'll be helpful for someone.
An more straightforward approach ist to use a List item instead of a Table item.
In the detail area of the List, create a Grid item of fixed width and height.
Put the content (e.g.) text into the grid's cells.
Important: Set the "display" property of the grid to "inline" instead of the default "block".
This way BIRT will put the grids from left to right until the line is full.
Then it will fill the next line (think of "display: inline" like adding words to a paragraph).
To change the column width of a tabular form, I have to put the below code into the HTML EXPRESSION field
<div style="width:20px;">#COLUMN_NAME#</div>
Is there any better way to do this? such as via the CSS on the header of the region?
Thanks
In form page, if you click on specific column, you will find menu on the right hand side. You can change column width under Appearance section or Advance section. There are places to change the column fields in under that sections.
Under Appearance section you can enter from width field.
I'm trying to create a report with some controls "anchored" to the very end. The difficulty is that I can't add this to the page footer because the report could span multiple pages leaving a giant white space at the end of each report if I decide to toggle visibility. The items I have should only appear on the very last page and be positioned just above the footer.
For example, in this scenario, I need the letter's closing signature, titles, etc. positioned at the very end of the last page the report spans.
As an alternative to adding a sub report you could try the suggestion below.
It all depends on how you data is laid out in your report whether it could work for you.
If all the data required to populate the controls exists in the report dataset why not add an outer lever of grouping that encompasses the entire dataset. You could do this using a dummy column containing 1 for example.
Just add a footer to this group and put your data in the group footer.
You can additional rows as necessary to the group footer.
This footer will always appear as the last row(s) in the tablix
I am trying generate one sale bill format format in telerik report design.
I Need Output like detail band is grow to fit page size. like adding blank row.
i have used table inside details band.
Is there any property in detail band or in table to fit page size?
or i have to manually add blank rows?
You can set the Docking property by selecting the table and then using the property window to set the value.
Set it to Fill by clicking in the value box and selecting Fill.
Alternatively you can just type Fill.
I need to change the orientation of a table in a BIRT report so that the table header is vertical instead of horizontal.
Is this possible? I don't want to use a Crosstab.
It seems this thread is still being pointed at so I posted an example of a horizontal table layout using a crosstab. I know it won't help the original author but others following this thread now may find this helpful.
To create the horizontal grouping, first create your query like normal, then create a Data Cube. In this data cube, drag each field that you want into a group. Then drag a new crosstab on the report and drag each field into the top right column group area. It will create a new header row for each field. Don't put anything in the left side (Rows) and don't put anything in the measure field (bottom-right). This will create labels on the left... and the data will extend out to the right.
The report design example can be downloaded from: http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/files/file/1079-horizontal-table-using-crosstab/

If you want dataset records to be reported across the page, this would have to be done via a crosstab.
If you want dataset records to be reported down the page, this can't be done automatically as far as I know. However, it can be done by inserting a new detail line in your report table object for each database field to be reported, then moving column headings from the heading row into the first column's detail rows and moving record values into the second column's detail rows.
So, for example, a report with 6 columns in it would become a two column report with six detail rows.
Not in box (up to 3.7). You have to use 3'd party libs like that one.
