When providing custom UI in the ASP report viewer (may also include other viewers) to facilitate the selection of report parameter values, it would be useful to be able to get the available values. Currently only the definition of available values can be read from a report, there is no mechanism to actually get them without reading that definition and generating your own SQL query etc from the SQLDataSource. Resolving the values ourselves is dangerous, from a data integrity point of view. We are re-writing the mechanism to get the values which may not fully reflect the report designer’s intention as we may miss duplicating all of the functionality the report engine does when it processes available values. The reason why this would be useful is that the current report parameter UI supplied by the viewer is extremely basic and limited. For example, sometimes we may want to select values from a tree view. We may wish resolve them through a series of wizard steps. Either way, being limited to the basic UI doesn’t fit well with individual solutions. I base this request on the currently available functionality in Microsoft’s reporting service. This does currently have a function we can call for the reasons described above.
It would be nice to have an image filter option when exporting reports to PDF. For example we need to export an image to PDF using the "Flate" algorithm so that the image is not compressed in any way.
It would be good if the table headers can be frozen. This can be really useful in case of a big report which is displayed on a single page.
Please add support for PrivateFontCollection. When the program is deployed to a location where it does not and cannot install system level fonts (for various reasons), it makes an application built with Telerik Reporting volatile. I submitted a ticket due to a conflict we ran into. Telerik's response was to install the fonts on the system. However, the system controllers response is "this it why PrivateFontCollection was invented...you have the control to use any fonts you want." As a result, a developer has to either give up Telerik (ex. for DevExpress which supports it) or change the deployment entirely which seems utterly ridiculous. Due to some project constraints, we changed deployments in hopes of it being rectified.
I am using Telerik Reporting with MVC 5, and would like the ability to use the custom parameterEditor with MVC. If anything, I'd like to be able to create it with razor MVC, and then use jquery to add the parameterEditor.
We need the ability to let a table group to initiate a page break. When you have a table with hundreds of row breaking the into separate pages per group would make the report look so much cleaner.
We display data inside an HtmlTextBox that was entered using the RadEditor. It would be great if the Reporting HtmlTextBox could be brought much closer or even in line with tag support as the editor. We are frequently running into issues with uncommon tags (that we strip out for the HtmlTextBox) and also with spacing being different. We work around the issues we have, but continuing increased tag support or auto stripping of unsupported tags would be very appreciated.
I'd like to suggest that the behaviour (positions the viewer at the top) used for alternating between the bookmarks to the Report Header and Group Header using the document map, be applied to the Page Header too. It would be better, if the viewer always started at the top of the first page when using the Page Header. Bug Report ID: 902125 -- Scroll Top when alternating between bookmarks About the attachments: -OriginalReports - these files show the reports without clicking on the bookmarks -ReportScrollTopBetweenBookmarks - these files show the reports after clicking on the bookmarks
i would like to suggest that if we can have Report Designer Web interface as well.
Ability to make a column in table or crosstab having width based on its content
Possibility to select BarCode Encoding based on value on record dataItem.
I like how with Kendo UI for MVC you have the option of placing the references dlls into lib/kendouimvc, so projects are not dependent on having the correct version installed (or having the telerik control panel installed on a build server), and when updates occur it will copy over everything and make sure you don't miss something. It would be nice to have an option in the upgrade wizard extension thingy to have a section for including telerik reporting and it will put the necessary dlls in your project the same way. I can easily manually copy the files over, so this is just a pet peave thing, but it would be nice...
It would be good a maintain the scroll position on the parent page while navigating back from a drill-through report (using the back button of the report viewer) specially if the parent page contains a vertical scrollbar. This would enhance the user experience and eliminate the need to scroll back to the original position.
The Telerik Reporting only support fixed size page now. But sometimes we need continues-roll paper mode.(like: receipt paper) Some reporter tools: ActiveReports, it has 3 mode:(Page Reports, RDL Reports, Section Reports) On "Telerik Forums / Reporting Forum" there is already some people asked it before 2 years ago. But until now the basic feature not release....
Hello, It would be nice if telerik reporting get a option tool which our customer can digitally sign a PDF generated from the telerik report. This feature ll be great for the contract , important customer document, to sign in by the web. thanks Oliver

Datasources of tables and expressions are processed even when the item is not visible. This can lead to performance problems. It should be possible to disable certain items to be processed. The most obvious way is that items are not processed, that are not visible anyway.
When converting Crystal Report templates (rpt files) to Telerik Reporter templates it would be very helpful to include the schema settings in the associated ttx file which provides the dataset info. This allows the layout to map properly to the converted template. Also any imbedded SQL statements found in the Crystal template could be captured and the conversion wizard could then query the developer on database connection requirements. These two abilities would make conversion a complete tool allowing rapid deployment of new Telerik report templates.
For some reason the database didn't load when I installed the reporting demo. neither when I ran a repair install. I'm running MS SQL 2014 on my local workstation. Could you tell me which DB to install to run the demo reports?
With the current version of telerik reporting, the default date/time for when the report is run on the bottom left of the report shows up in big bold numbers across the entire report when you print it from excel. The problem is easily fixed by either removing the field or moving it to the top of the report but it is a waste of time and not something i would easily remember to do until after the fact.
