Report Manager Screen Output creating extra lines

  • My report looks correct in development but when I deploy it and look at it extra lines are being added

    Example

    development preview

    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    report manager preview

    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    Has anyone seen this before? What can I do about it?

    Thank you

  • I realised that my output when printing and on screen are different. The gap lies within what the Report Manager tool offers and what the Report Definition Language offers.

    I my experience, I could not add a page break using the Report Manager. So, I had to add it manually directly in the .rdl file.

    Checking the .rdl file and applying the changes you need might help you.

    I hope this helps.

  • Thanks I will look at that and let you know what I find.

  • There is nothing in the rdl that would indicate any kind of line break. The problem only happens in the Report Manager Preview Screen not in the Developer Visual Studio Preview Screen.

    I am attaching a screen print of each so that you can see, it is easier than explaining

  • I see what you have attached and I guess that if .rdl commands like <width> <height> <paddingleft> <paddingright> and so on cannot be altered, then it is a hard problem to solve.

    I also remember I had a sizing problen with displaying photos. In the Report Manager, there was a fit to size option and the photo would squeeze eithin the boundary of the cell. I am hoping that a similar option for text is possible too.

    Keep thinking and trying.

  • Thanks for trying
