I've been request to change the color of the list item from black to red (our company logo color, our branding) in SSRS.
I've tried to replace the the by my own bullet colored and changed the placeholder in HTML mode :
=REPLACE(
REPLACE(
First(Fields!Description.Value, "myDatasetName")
, "<li>"
, "<font color='#E61E3C'>•</font> "
)
, "</li>"
, "<br/>"
)
My bullet is now in red so that's cool....however I've lost the property of a list :
my long text should appear like this
So to have the text of the next rows being aligned with the first text row. However, as expected, the text is aligned with the bullet. My approach is wrong as it should remain a list item to benefit of all the properties.
With CSS we can change the color, does anyone know how we can do it in SSRS ?
Any help would be appreciated.
SQL Server version : 2019
The best way I found is that I've developed my own list subreport.
This sub report is a tablix with 3 columns :
the bullet (in red)
a column representing spaces between bullet and content
the text content (in my case it's a title in uppercase + newline + a content)
I can then change the :
list style type (bullet, number, hyphen,..)
the color
the size of the list style
...
...as I want
I've changed by SQL query to return a list of records. My report has a tablix that calls my own list subReport having the necessary parameters (textItem,...)

I have a circular diagram and I am using the keyword #PERCENT to present the percentages of the different categories. But sometimes the labels overlap.
enter image description here
I have tried different tag property settings but i can't fix it.
I have also tried to configure an expression, but it generates an error:
=IIf( Cint(#PERCENT) < 1 , "", #PERCENT )
How can I improve the presentation?
Thank you! in advance
There are a few things you can do.
To fix what you are already trying to do you need to change your expression to something like
= IIF(
SUM(Fields!Amount.Value) / SUM(Fields!Amount.Value, "DataSet1") <0.01,
0,
"#PERCENT"
)
The assumes the pie chart is based on a fields called Amount and your dataset is called DataSet1 .
Then you need to set the Format property of the datalabel to something like
0.00;(0.00);' '
It's the part after he last colon that is important here ;' ' means, show zero's as a space.
You could set the label position to Outside so tey are not as close togther
You could "Explode" the small slices into another pie or move the these slices away from the main pie by setting the CollectedStyle in the CustomAttributes property group
in the example below this says "any slices that are <=20% or the chart" move them into their own mini chart.
Look at the SmartLabels property group in the Chaer Series properties.
Hopefully with this info you will have enough to improve your chart.
I have a situation in which I have developed a visual chart in SSRS
2012. The chart title is fixed -
Schools Performance in MyCity (County, State, Country)
(Remember, the above title is NOT dynamic, so the situation is easy to handle.)
(1) I need to keep the first part :
Schools Performance in MyCity (left 30 characters) at a font size of 12, Bold
(2) I need to keep the second part starting from the bracket "(" and ending in the other bracket ")" :
(County, State, Country) (all characters after the left 30 characters) at a font size of 8, non-Bold and italic.
I am not able to use multiple title boxes due to space constraint in the chart
I need to get the equivalent of some T-SQL string functions such as CHARINDEX, PATINDEX, etc. in SSRS. I am not too familiar with string functions inside SSRS.
Can anyone provide me a solution on how to achieve my goal?
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
I think the best way here is you delete your chart title and add a textbox above your chart. In this textbox you can write your text with the desired formating (Home Tab > Font). If SSRS rearanges the position of the textbox and the chart, put the chart and the textbox in a rectangle, so they stay where you place them.
As far as I know rich text or formating in the title is not possible.
I have created a Directional indicator (Green up arrow and Red down arrow) in my SSRS report, referring to the value of the column next to it. This all works ok:
However, I really want the indicator and the value to be in the same cell, like Excel can:
A Google found the following article , where the last post suggest it is possible using the following syntax:
=Format(Fields!Column1.Value, "Format") + " " + "Indicator"
I assume "Indicator" refers to the name I gave to my Direction indicator, but I can't get it to work..
I have read that by using border formatting I can get my two cells to look like one, but I would ideally like it all to be in one.
Any thoughts appreciated!

I would do this by placing a Rectangle inside of the cell and place your indicator along with another text box inside the rectangle. The downside to this is (depending on how you align the items in the rectangle) the formatting may cause split cells in excel exports.
Ross's method will work and there are alternatives..
The article you referenced was a text indicator not an image (from what I could tell).
You could do something similar by simply adding a a placeholder in the cell (right-click inside the cell and click "create placeholder"). You can then set the font and colour independently from the rest of the cell.
You could use a common font such as wingdings to get arrows and then the value and color properties would be expressions to show the correct 'character' (arrow) and the correct colour.
How can I make use below SSRS expression functionality to get background colors from database, as tooltip explains ?
you can get the background color value from the database consider the below example
For the text box
1. go to the textbox properties --> fill
2. select expression for the fill color option as shown in below screenshot
in expression give the field value from the dataset
eg: =Fields!color.Value
for that text box the color will applied .
I have a report that I want add a line beneath the even rows in details section.I add a Line in details section and add this expression to that:
=IIF(RowNumber("DataSet1") Mod 2 , "Green", "No Color")
but line showed under the last record of my report.my report consist pf a simple table in details section. How I can show a line under even row number records?
The simplest way to display a green line under even-numbered rows in SSRS is to change the Details section row bottom border colour (via the BorderColor:Bottom property in the Proprties Window) to be an expression like the following:
=IIF(RowNumber("DataSet1") Mod 2 , Nothing, "Green")
(Note that in your original expression the colours were the wrong way around - so that the colour would be set green in odd-numbered rows, not even-numbered - and that "No Color" is not an acceptable colour in SSRS, so you would see warnings when previewing the output in BIDS.)
