We often receive feedback regarding hard/impossible editing of reports after they are exported to Word format.
The existing rendering mechanism will produce Word tables which are harder for manual editing - http://docs.telerik.com/reporting/designing-reports-considerations-word

Let us know in comments about your experience with editing reports exported to Word format so we can understand more clearly what is required from Reporting Word rendering extention.

Hello,

We use WebServiceDataSource with OData query in our reports. Sometimes OData can through an exception.

In our case, we have added Web Service DataSource and set this OData query for its Service Url:

https://services.odata.org/V3/Northwind/Northwind.svc/Products(1)?$select=ProductName1

If you see the query, it is selecting "ProductName1" property of "Product #1". But "ProductName1" property does not exist (correct property name is "ProductName"). When we use Postman for the OData query above, it shows an error which you can see from attached picture (ErrorWhenWeUsePostman.PNG, "Could not find a property named 'ProductName1' on type 'NorthwindModel.Product'"). From the second picture (TelerikReportingGeneralError.PNG, "An error has occurred... Response status code does not indicate success: 400 (Bad Request).") you can see the result of our test report (in html5 report viewer) that has the same OData query.

The question is when we preview our report (in html5 report viewer) how can we show the error message that OData sent instead of showing Telerik reporting general error?
Instead of this message:

An error has occurred while processing Report 'TestReportWithWebServiceDataSource': Response status code does not indicate success: 400 (Bad Request).

This OData error message should be handled and shown on browser (html5 report viewer) when previewing report:

Could not find a property named 'ProductName1' on type 'NorthwindModel.Product'

FYI: We are using Telerik Reporting version 15.0.21.224.

This is my post on Telerik forum related with this: How to get internal error message from Custom Report Resolver

Thank you,

My ReportLibary has 174 reports. When I tried to convert them at once with the Standalone designer, it converted a few of them and threw the following exception (showing part of the Stack Trace):

Application: Telerik.ReportDesigner.exe
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.InvalidOperationException
   at System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource.get_Count()
   ...

Converting the reports in smaller portions was successful.

The property of the Graph Numerical Axis CrossAxisValue is listed in the Bindings editor dropdown of the Graph Coordinate System. When I set it, the report displays an error that the property does not exist.

I found out that the property is obsolete.

Hi Team,

I would like to request an HTML5 ASP.NET Core Report Viewer similar to the MVC version with wrappers.  It would be great to be able to utilize Razor Syntax for developing instead of pure jQuery.

Thank you!

When there is a textBox report item placed in a report page header/footer section with a text color styling applied to the textbox, the text color is not respected in the Excel export.

This happens only when the native excel page header/footer is used.

In Web Report Designer I added a List to my report groupHeaderSection and then couldn't delete it. It switched it to a TextBox. When trying to delete the TextBox the number of the box increments up/down.

There are times when I can't drag it to a different location.

We are using the external style sheet file (StyleSheet.xml) when designing our report from Web report designer. We want to see our style sheet applied on our report when we see the report from Web designer in design mode. In Preview mode it is working fine.  But the problem here, it is not working in Design mode.

See the attached pictures. You find our problem on the picture ExternalStyleInWebDesigner-DesignMode.PNG

Is there any solution or a feature request needs to be created?

FYI: External style sheet is working in Standalone report designer in both design and preview mode.

Thanks,

Use only components from KendoUI for Angular. It would be understandable that such report viewer would provide less features, but it would remove dependency from jQuery and KendoUI for jQuery.

Here is an example of the procedure on AdventureWorks 2019 database:

SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[ProcedureConditionsTest]
@ReportPart SMALLINT = 1
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
IF @ReportPart = 1
BEGIN
SELECT P.FirstName AS FirstNamePart1, P.MiddleName AS MiddleNamePart1, P.LastName AS LastNamePart1,
	A.AddressLine1 AS AddressLine1Part1, A.AddressLine2 AS AddressLine2Part1, A.City AS CityPart1, A.PostalCode AS PostalCodePart1,
	SP.StateProvinceCode AS StateProvinceCodePart1, SP.CountryRegionCode AS CountryRegionCodePart1, SP.[Name] AS NamePart1
FROM [Person].[Person] AS P
JOIN [Person].[BusinessEntityAddress] AS BEA ON P.BusinessEntityID = BEA.BusinessEntityID
JOIN [Person].[Address] AS A ON BEA.AddressID = A.AddressID
JOIN [Person].[StateProvince] AS SP ON A.StateProvinceID = SP.StateProvinceID
WHERE P.FirstName BETWEEN 'A. Scott' AND 'Justine'
ORDER BY P.FirstName, P.LastName
END
ELSE IF @ReportPart = 2
BEGIN
SELECT P.FirstName AS FirstNamePart2, P.MiddleName AS MiddleNamePart2, P.LastName AS LastNamePart2,
	A.AddressLine1 AS AddressLine1Part2, A.AddressLine2 AS AddressLine2Part2, A.City AS CityPart2, A.PostalCode AS PostalCodePart2,
	SP.StateProvinceCode AS StateProvinceCodePart2, SP.CountryRegionCode AS CountryRegionCodePart2, SP.[Name] AS NamePart2
FROM [Person].[Person] AS P
JOIN [Person].[BusinessEntityAddress] AS BEA ON P.BusinessEntityID = BEA.BusinessEntityID
JOIN [Person].[Address] AS A ON BEA.AddressID = A.AddressID
JOIN [Person].[StateProvince] AS SP ON A.StateProvinceID = SP.StateProvinceID
WHERE P.FirstName BETWEEN 'K.' AND 'Zoe'
ORDER BY P.FirstName, P.LastName
END
END
GO

In the report Designer I added two SQL Data Source named Part1 and Part2:

Part1:

EXEC [dbo].[ProcedureConditionsTest]
@ReportPart = 1

Part2:

EXEC [dbo].[ProcedureConditionsTest]
@ReportPart = 2

On both sources, I have column sufix Part1.

Trying to preview a report with a lot of data in the report viewer in an ASP.NET Core application results in the error:

"System.ArgumentException: The JSON value of length n is too large and not supported."

What's the long-term plan for supporting Linux and Telerik Reporting? The dotnet design team is looking to remove support for System.Drawing.Common on Linux platforms. They're recommending compiler warnings in .Net 6, and full PlatformNotSupportedExceptions in .Net7

Breaking change: System.Drawing.Common only supported on Windows - .NET | Microsoft Docs

If I use Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient assembly with version 13 or higher, I receive the following exception:

An error has occurred while processing Report 'Report1':
Unable to establish a connection to the database. Please verify that your connection string is valid. In case you use a named connection string from the application configuration file, make sure the name is 
correct and the connection string settings are present in the configuration file of your application.
------------- InnerException -------------
Attempt by security transparent method 'Telerik.Reporting.Adomd.AdomdProviderFactory.CreateConnection()' to access security critical method 'Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.AdomdConnection..ctor()' 
failed.
 
Assembly 'Telerik.Reporting.Adomd, Version=16.0.22.119, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a9d7983dfcc261be' is marked with the AllowPartiallyTrustedCallersAttribute, and uses the level 2 security 
transparency model.  Level 2 transparency causes all methods in AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers assemblies to become security transparent by default, which may be the cause of this exception

With earlier versions, the data source works as expected.

When a report is saved in the Web Report Designer, a popup appears confirming that the report was successfully saved. However, it is visible for far too long and blocks users during this time.

This feature request is to add an 'ok', 'hide' or 'close' button to these types of popups so the user can dismiss it.

Thank you,

Shannon

In some cases, the word export will cut off the report content with a blank page.
