SSRS 2005 - Dynamically control the width of columns in Matrix report or Hide any column

Hi All,
I just want to hide some column without having white space in Matrix report in SSRS 2005. Although I am aware of that perhaps this feature is not available on SSRS 2005. So, I just want to know if we can handle the width of column dynamically(using expressions)
in matrix report?
Please help. Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Kumud

Hi Kumud,
Based on my test, SSRS is not support column dynamically width. It has property “CanGrow” of text box. If we configure the property to True, it will wraps to next line if needed. In SSRS 2008, we can hide some columns without white space. If possible, I
recommend you update your SSRS 2005 to SSRS 2008.
There is a similar issue, you can refer to it.

How to Control the width of the Filter row in Table View

Hi !
I have a Table View with filter='application'. The filter works fine but I am not able to control the width of the columns of the tableview .
On filtering, if there are not items in the table view the columns shrink to the minum width....and it looks very odd.
Can you help me how to control the width of the Filter-Row in Table Veiw.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Bindiya

Hi Raja,
"FIXEDCOLUMN" did not help in the width of the column, but it just showed all the rows merged in the column.
I have a cloumn called "COUNTRY" and its width is set to "20". The Filter of the column "COUNTRY" is a dropdownlist whos value is update with new values.
On filtering if there is any row visible then the column width is adjusted to the maxmimum length of the dropdownlist ( this is because of the "EDIT" attribute in column definition ). But if there is no rows visiblel for the selected filter value then the filter row shrinks to the width = "20" and the dropdownlist is not visible completely.
Need to know how to control the width of the FILTER column.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Bindiya

Allow the user to control the width of the edit forum post input box

I would like to control the width of of the edit-forum post input box. This could be:
automatically adjust the width of the box so that the box doesn't run off the right edge of the window.
have a user global preference to set the preferred width
at least, allow the user to change the width via the change size icon. The three horizontal bars at the lower left of the input box. You can adjust the vertical dimension, but not the horizontal. TenFourFox 4.0.1. This is probably being blocked for some obscure reason.
Here is an example of an over extended right margin:
Curiously enough, the "software" let's me adjust the width & height of the add reason to edit text, but not adjust the width of the more important edit text box.
Robert

Testing
Standard Reply box can be height adjusted but not width.
Same with Advanced Editor
No Adjustment at all in HTL Editor
Edit.
The Edit uses the Advanced Editor
Only Height Adjustment again.
I do seem to remember someone posting about the width and saying they could drag it over the edge of the right hand edge (Into the grey surround)
This may have been a post in the lounge.
It didn't actually try it at the time but have played with it since and have not seen it.
Maybe it is something they "Fixed" in both senses of the word.
Second edit.
I can't alter the box that currently reads "Message Edited by:- ..."
I also can't get this box to accept New lines (they appear in the box but don't post that way)

SSRS 2005 - Dynamic Query handling.

Hello All,
I need to generate a report based on some dynamic query. I am passing a query string to SQL Server procedure (from .Net UI), this procedure returns dynamic set of columns. These columns and number of columns can vary from query to query. I want to show these
columns on report dynamically.
Please suggest. Thanks in advance.
-Regards
-Kumud Vaish

Hi Kumud,
I don't think it is possible do display the dynamic columns on the report since the columns and number of columns are dynamically.
In a SQL Server Reporting Services report, we need to get the column name and use it on a column of a tablix control if we want to display it on a report. In your scenario, the columns name are dynamic. When reference to a column which not
exist on the dataset, we will get the error
"Report item expressions can only refer to the fields within the current dataset scope or if inside an aggregate, the specified dataset scope."
Thank you for your understanding.

Specifically controlling the width of a table in an HTML report

I am generating an HTML report that consists of several detail tables
followed by a summary table at the end. Each detail table is
generated within a for loop. The summary table is generated
separately at the end. The detail tables all have the same column
width and same number of columns. However, I cannot get the summary
table to have the same column width even though it has the same number
of columns and the same column width setting.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi,
What VI are you using to create the tables using the for loop? What VI (Append Table to Report.vi?) are you using to create the table at the end?
If you are using the Append Table to Report.vi to create the tables in the for loop, can you change the width of the columns and see expected behavior?
Let me know, and I should be able to help you out further.

Can I dynamically control the position of objects on a printed page?

Forum:
Oracle Developer Reports Builder (10g)
I have a need to control the position of printing on a peel off label in my report. I currently am forced to represent a complex object three times , i.e. LEFT, RIGHT and CENTER, printing whichever is configured in the PRINTER_INFO table of my schema. I am printing to over 200 printers and they all print the location differently.
Also, since printing through the DESTYPE=PRINTER ,vs printing from a displayed PDF have different results, I would have to refresent these three objects yet again, sligh lower and to the right to support label printing from a PDF.
I have seen where Word Macro can dynamically position this same object by using xy coordinates.
Does anyone know how to do something like this in Oracle Reports.
Thx in advance,
Gary
[email protected]

Dora,
Yes, that is exactly what I am doing. As I mentioned, the label object has many elements and they all sit on top of each other when doing the layout. This by itself is messy to work with.
This has been workable so far with regard to generating output to the several hundred printers of different models and firmware.
The output is rarely if ever centered in both x & y axis. We have only been able to use in production by relaxing the rules so that the text only need be within the boundaries of the label.
I also found that to support printing from the PDF view that the text positioning is well out of the label boundaries. I would be forced to create an additional three complex objects in the 'Y' axis. Needless to say this is quite messy.
I do appreciate your input, but your recommendation does not meet the requirements of my project.
I don't believe that Oracle Reports can do this task. I am thinking that BI Publisher can, and am doing "due diligence" before recommending a new reporting platform.
Thx again.
Gary

How can I control the width of an inputText and commandButton components

I need to set the width for both <af:inputText/> and <af: CommandButton/> , but I couldn’t find the width property in the “Property inspector” for them, Is there a way to do it ? Thanks.

Msrping,
Always mention the Version of Jdeveloper which you are using.
If you are using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.0.1 than try this:
<af:inputText/> :: Goto Property Inspector > Appearance > Column(Set the value for this property. ex, 10)
<af: CommandButton/> :: Goto Property Inspector > style > Box tab > width(Set the value for this property, ex, 50)

Dynamically controling the size (in pixels) of array elements?

Hey Everyone,
I am writing a large vi where front panel space is becoming a limitation. One of the elements that I want to display is a 2-D array of boolean indicators (rectangular LEDs). Is there any way to dynamically resize the elements in the array so that regardless of the number of elements, the entire array is always visible and has a constant footprint. For example, say the array is 8 x 8 elements, and takes up 160x160 pixels on the front panel so each element is roughly 20x20 pixels. Then the number of elements shifts to 4x4. I want the display to stay 160x160 pixels, but the size of each element to double to 40x40 pixels. Is this possible?
Thanks all,
Matt
Solved!
Go to Solution.

So thank you for two great ideas/examples. Definitely think I have a couple of very workable approaches. I have a follow on question about using the intensity graph approach.
First some background. This indicator is going to show the progress of a sorting operation, 1-4 copies of 1-8 unique items are being sorted into 1-32 containers. The items arrive at the sorter in random order, are identified, and then placed into the container where they are still needed. The point of this indicator is to show the user, at a glance, how full each container is andwhich componenets are missing. I want the elements (columns) to appear different for the unique items, which I know you can't do in an array of booleans. So I had already dumped the boolean approach for an array of colorboxes, and it was the color boxes that I was trying to dynamically size. There is still a boolean array to keep track of if an item has arrived, but that array drives the array of colorboxes where each type of item is color coded by assigning a gray value to colorbox for false, and a particular color if true. See attached, which works pretty well (detailed adjusts will make it just right).
I think the intensity graph will look much nicer though, so here is the question:
How do I map the different colors onto the intensity graph so it looks like the colorbox array without the lines? The attached get vi puts out a different value for each yes/no, which is to say I already know how to take the boolean and convert the 1 state to a unique number, what I don't know how to do is map that number into a particular color on the intensity graph.
Thanks guys.
Super helpful as always!

How To control the cutting edge of a wide report

Hi All;
I have a wide report with 3 panels horizontal per page, i.e. i have 3 physical pages
for each logical page.
Is there a way to control the cutting edge between page 1&2 and between page 2&3 so that it comes at a specified position to avoid data cutting ?
Regards

In general, you can just execute the transaction and then at the selection screen go:
System->Status
It will show the program name and you can just double click on it to see the source code.

: HIDING SUMMARY COLUMNS IN MATRIX REPORT , URGENT

Hi,
Can any one please tell me how to hide a column in oralce matrix report. Its a summary column for the matrix report which appears next to the cell values. For example
Manufacturer
Brand
SubBrand1 SubBrand2 Brand Total Manufacturer Total
Week $ Sales $ Sales Total $ Sales Total $ Sales
This is a case where,the cell value is the $ sales for the SubBrand for the week. And it gets total at each brand level and each Manufacturer level. The requrement is if there is only one SubBrand for a Brand then the Brand total should not appear on the report. Similarly if there is one Brand for a Manufacturer, then the total at Manufacturer level should not appear . The point is not only it should dissapear but the frame should srink to make it fell that there is no totaling going on at those two levels. If the fileds just remains blank then the report looks odd. So the gap should be srinked as well. How to do it . This is very urgent . Please help me out.
Thanks
Feroz

use a formst trigeer on the field that returns false when you don't want to display the field.

Display null rows / columns in matrix report

Hi,
Is it possible to display any character ('0' for example) in a matrix report where the entire row or column show no value at all ?
My matrix shows Row1 and Row2 with values but no Row3 at all like this:
Column1 Column2 Column3
Row1 value1 value2 value3
Row2 value4 value5 value6
But I would like it to show my rows 3 with '0's :
Column1 Column2 Column3
Row1 value1 value2 value3
Row2 value4 value5 value6
Row3 0 0 0
Thank you,
Denise

Make your query return 0 with nvl(column, 0) and an outer join, plus some stuff to avoid a double outer join.
E.g. a sales per product per city:
 City1 City2 City3
Prod1 10 100 12
Prod2 25 110 200
Prod3 0 0 0Could be made like this:
create table city (c_city varchar2(10));
create table prod (p_prod varchar2(10));
create table prod_sales (ps_city varchar2(10)
, ps_prod varchar2(10)
, ps_sales number);
<.....insert some values, except voor Prod3 .....>
SQL> select p_prod, c_city, nvl(ps_sales,0)
2 from (select c_city, p_prod from city, prod)
3 , prod_sales
4 where ps_city(+) = c_city
5 and ps_prod(+) = p_prod
6 order by 1,2 ;
P_PROD C_CITY NVL(PS_SALES,0)
Prod1 City1 10
Prod1 City2 100
Prod1 City3 12
Prod2 City1 25
Prod2 City2 110
Prod2 City3 200
Prod3 City1 0
Prod3 City2 0
Prod3 City3 0

How to show/hide a link column in a report, depending on another column?

Sorry, thread duplicated.
Edited by: Andres Vilallave on 14-may-2010 15:31

Hello,
I had a situation similar to this. I had NULL selected in the column when I wanted to hide the link. Please find below more explenation:-
example report 
Interactive Report
Col1 col2 col3
1 a1 a2
2 b1 b2
- c1 c2
- d1 d2
-------------------------------------------In the above Report col1 is a link . Upon clicking this, user should will be directed to Page XX
so, when data in col2 of report is c1 or d1[can be a different display condition, you may want to implement this with CASE or anyother SQL construct] , I selected NULL which will not show the link.
so, my point is, if the SQL you have in the INTERACTIVE REPORT is creative enough to have NULL in the column, Link is not enabled.
Hope I got your problem correct.
Thanks,
Chaitu.
