I would like to see a control as in an addition to the kendo mvc toolkit where you could build into an application the ability for customers to design the layouts of their reports. For example.. Say you have an app you built for multiple customers. Now the app might have a series of basic report templates in terms of queriable object model outputs. Being able to build an interface that would allow the customers to design their own layouts for what fields, positioning on the page etc..labels etc. and save that design to their account for future consumption would be a huge selling feature for an application. Specific example an invoicing application. Well you could pre build a bunch of templates and have the customer choose one (the only real option currently available)...or you could provide a list of fields(based on object models for the underlying report query) and have an embedded designer allow them to design their own invoice and save it.
I have a requirement for my report book to feature a title page and *THEN* a table of contents for the report book, followed by the report book's content. Currently, the TOC for a report book can only go at the beginning or the end of the book. My requirement required the ability to specify the TOC position more generally. Here are two possible approaches: 1. Implement the requirement as it is stated by allowing the report book's TOC to be positioned after such and such a report - the nth, or some other means of identification. 2. Honour the TOC for a report book that is nested inside another. I created a 'sub book' with the TOC as its first page and then added this an outer book. Unfortunately, the inner book's TOC was not honoured and the report was skipped. To my mind, the second suggestion above feels easier to implement (but I am guessing, of course). It certainly would allow just about any combination.
A Reporting engine should expose the ability to control the layout of the table of contents\Document Map. Reports are not always data driven and should give the ability to display the contents of the report at different levels, much like Microsoft Word does with their table of contents.
Please add a new ZoomMode to stretch the report to the viewer's visible area
To store reports, the Web Report Designer offers FileDefinitionStorage as an out-of-the-box solution for the DefinitionStorage. this FileDefinitionStorage does not support relative paths or sub-directories.
While the UriReportSourceResolver, which is used in the REST Service for rendering reports, does support sub-directories. These two services will often be used together, and for this reason, should behave consistently.
I have configured Asp.NET Core 5 IReportServiceConfiguration in DI for ReportsControllerBase with ReportServiceConfiguration.ReportingEngineConfiguration set to IConfiguration with custom IConfigurationProvider providing ConnectionStrings which can change in runtime so the provider notifies about configuration changes via IChangeToken.
But the updated ConnectionStrings are not propagated to the service.
To fix it, I have made this hack:
reportEngineConfigurationChange = engineConfiguration.OnChange(() =>
{
telerikConfigurationManagerReset();
configuration.ReportingEngineConfiguration = engineConfiguration;
});which listens to IConfiguration changes and calls TelerikConfigurationManager.Reset (via reflection) and sets configuration again.
It would be nice if this would be implemented on Your side, please.
Can we achieve Excel slicers kind of filters in Dashboards using Telerik Report controls?
