Prerequisites: .NET Core application that uses HTML5-based report viewer and REST service with Kestrel web server.
When the application is stopped from the command prompt with CTRL+C, it does not stop all the dotnet.exe child processes that are spawn by the application and hangs on "Application is shutting down..." indefinitely.
This behavior might be related with the issue https://github.com/aspnet/Hosting/issues/960 which states that CTRL+C is not forwarded to the child processes.
Perform a detailed examination to see if there is an option to close the processes internally when a shutdown procedure is initiated.
When a textbox had a value and after that the value was deleted, if you try to set a language for the report the following error message occurs: "textbox26.width cannot be parsed as a unit because it does not contain numeric values.
Hello,
I have been working on some reports that require multiple tables on a single page. This limits the space columns have for data being bound to fit and results in text wrapping. I made a support ticket asking if there was a way to have dynamic column widths. I hoped to find a way to get table columns to change their widths depending on the data being bound to the table, while still maintaining the overall width of the table. My idea was to have it distribute the space (change the column width) to best display data and avoid text wrapping if possible.
Attached to this request are some PDFs. One of them ("Current Report") shows that some data is either cut off or uses text wrapping. The other attached PDF shows the closest I could get to an acceptable layout, given our clients requirements and what our design team wants the reports to look like.
Thank you!
It would be great if you could introduce the ability to create custom reusable color palettes in Telerik Report Designer, so I don't have to declare the same set of colors for each chart I need them.
If you have a lot of graphs in your report then it is more convenient to change the color palette one place.
Asking to enable typing into the font combo box in standalone Telerik Report Designer.
The concept would be to click on the font drop down and just start to type the name of the font and have the list shift to that position for you.
When exporting a long report with ContinuousPaper = true in Word format, the output document has text cut.
Based on the limitation explained in the Pagination section in Design Considerations for Word Rendering article of our documentation, Word supports maximum page size of 22 inches wide and 22 inches high. If the page is higher than 22 inches, some data may not be displayed in Print Layout view. So, in Word, a long document couldn't be rendered.
At least, this property could be avoided when printed in Word format.
Feature Request - Show email sent / error notification using the report viewers built-in notification system.
It would be nice to have an option to have a message shown when the email with the report is sent or if there was an error sending.
Right now when you hit email and send the user does not know if it was successful or not. Being async is nice but I have noticed that it could take a few seconds to complete and if the user navigates away from the report viewer during this time the report has the possibility of not sending. Either way right now the user has no definitive method of knowing if the email was sent or not.
Reporting environment:
The problem: I have a table that has several million records. I have a report with parameters to query those records. Example on a sales report: Customer (All or specific customer) and Product (All or specific product) and date range. If by mistake the user selects all customers, all products, and a date range of 10 years, he may get millions of records for the report. After several seconds he realizes that he entered the wrong parameters and wants to cancel the report. There is no way to cancel. The solution was to run this in another thread and kill the process. That seems like a hack and doesn’t stop the web request so the web service keeps working even after the report has been killed.
Change request: Allow canceling in two ways:
The web data source should implement the “Cancellation Token” and cancel the web request when the report is canceled. Postman, browsers, and other tools use this technique so that the web service understands that the data is no longer needed and it can stop the request.
