how to setting report viewer to view exactly as VS preview

hi all..I'm new here and got a problem, and i hope you guys can help me.
My problems:
I want to create one card , size : height =2.25, width =4.5 and it should be
on 2 page because I want to make it front and back.
i 'm using rectangle and textbox, and i set the page break after first
rectangle . When i preview the card, it shows 2 pages, one front and one back,
as it should be.
when i preview using print layout at VS, it became 5 pages. I already setting
using
[(Report.PageWidth - Report.LeftMargin - Report.RightMargin)>=Body.Width] but
it won't do.
And one more thing, when preview it on browser (report viewer), it shows one
full page, not the size of the card. So how can I make the preview setting
only preview the card exactly like the layout of the card, not full screen?
any help will be appreciated. thank you.the HTML version is optimized for a web rendering and the size of the pages
will be different.
but if the user try to print or export in pdf, then the layout will follows
your needs.
maybe you can try to change the interactive size of the report (not the page
size, the interactive size) to see if you can force the HTML page size.

How to set the height of the report body/table dynamically

Hi
I have a report of 8.5"(W) by 11"(H).The header and footer size are fixed.
The header size is 4.75 in and footer size is 2.375in.
In the report body I have a table where the data is dynamic.
The problem is when the data is small i mean like 2 or 3 columns it doesnt touch the footer .
If we have more than 10 columns or so it goes to the next page and even then it doesnt touch the footer beacuse the data stops there.
If we have like 4 columns or so in the table then it touches the footer.
I tried to replace the table with the list but I got the same problem there also.
I tried to place the table in a rectangle and it has the same problem.
I want the table to touch the footer no matter how much the data is .
Is there any work around for this problem?

I really appreciate your help and time
Thanks
Hobbs

Hello,

The table will always grow based on its content. We do not currentlly support "Fill To Page" functionallity. Do you want the table style (borders and background color) to fill the page? Did you try settting the style on the report body?

Thank you,

Nico

Hi Nico

Thanks for the reply.I tried the boderstyle of body and the table but it stops wherever the data ends.

I can send you the rdl file or the exported pdf if u want a take look at what I am talking about.And also I have a the bordstyle of the table column set to solid.even that one stops with the last data.

I was thinking if we have something like calulcating the line height or may be fill the gap after the table somehow dynamically then only fix it.

Thanks

Did you solve it? I've got the same problem. I've got a report that needs border around it. If i use body's border then i can see the report correctly in report manager or after rendering it to pdf. But when i try to print from report manager right hand side border is missing. Printing of the report from rendered pdf file is fine. I tried few things like, created bland report with body only with border style to solid. I could see the border and print the border correctly. Then i added page header/footer and suddenly the right hand side border was missing. I think its bug. check this link http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=115351. I checked all the margin and layout setup everything is correct. Don't know how to get it working?

Vivek
