SSRS - Toggle row visibility based on multiple toggles - reporting-services

I have an SSRS report which has multiple layers of groups. Here are examples of what it looks like:
Example reports
Example A is how the report looks when initially run. You have a category (black) with multiple composites (blue) underneath.
Each of those composites has a percentage score. The toggle to the left of each composite will open up that composite, displaying its components (green in example B). Again, each component has a percentage. This is setup in the group properties.
Additionally, there is a toggle at the top left that shows/hides counts beneath the percentages.
However, if you show the counts, but still have the component lines hidden, the counts for the components still show (example C).
The intended behavior is that only the counts for the expanded rows would show. So, in this case, only the top count, immediately under the percentage, should show. The component counts should still be hidden.
Currently, the count rows' visibility is based on the toggle at the top left, setup in the Row Visibility option. Is there a way to have them based on multiple toggles, instead? So, the row with the 145,171 count would only show if the top toggle was on AND the expanded toggle beside the parent composite is on, as well?

How to display control on every page which is placed below tabix in the SSRS report

I have textbox control beneath tablix and wanting to display the textbox value on each page on fixed location on the report. The SSRS is rendering the report correctly when number of rows returned fits on one page and text box is displayed correctly at the designated place. But if the number of rows to be displayed in tablix is more than 10 rows(Added page break group to break to next page upon displaying 10 records on current page), then textbox gets pushed to the next page and not displayed. I want the textbox to display its value on each page.
Any help on this is appreciated.
Thanks
i have already added page breaks based on number of records to be displayed per page.
Image one show Design and if you look at right hand side Text Box Properties (other) category--> Repeat with here you can select with which Tablix you want to repeat. In my case I am repeating it with Tablix 1
Below Images will show you Text box on every page.

Align images dynamically alongside bar graphs in SSRS Charts

My requirement is to display images dynamically next to the bars in SSRS charts. I have been using many ways and was not able to find an apt solution to the problem.
I have used the bar graphs and a tablix to display images next to the bars. I have used an expression in order to repeat the images based on the number of the rows obtained from the dataset.
But the main problem is with the alignment of the images with the bars. Here's a pic.
And when the parameter/selection is changed the alignment of the images with the bars get scrambled.
I need to get the images adjacent to the bars just like the previous image(image1) even if the selection is changed.
Is there any way I can get through this?
Please share a solution.
Thanks.

IMO your image is meaningless clutter, but anyway ...
I would insert a column into the existing Tablix (left of the current image) and move the chart inside that cell. I would remove both axes, Titles etc so you just get a single bar in each cell.
Then I would insert another column into the existing Tablix (left of the chart) and pic the category label which you have blurred out in your image above.
Finally I would add footer rows to show an image for the X axis scale, and the X Axis title.

SSRS elements jumping of Position

I am currently having the following Problem:
I have 2 SSRS Texboxes which I place right above a Matrix:
Now as you can see the Textboxes are fixed in a standalone Position, and are all alone without anything else around them,
but guess what happens as soon as I click to Preview my Report, this happens:
The Textboxes Fly out of the Report,
and I have done everything to get them in place, I have tried getting them a little to the left, but in the end, after I got to where it would stop jumping, I got them so much left that they were in a place that I couldn't have them in.
Has anybody using Reporting Services ever experienced this?
Does anyone have a solution? Are there some properties I need to change in order for the Textboxes to stop Jumping?
Great Question, GBerisha! Essentially, you want the horizontal distance between the Heading Textbox and the two rightmost Textboxes to be fixed. There are two ways to accomplish this. The first would be to create a Rectangle from the Toolbox Menu and place the Heading Textbox and the two rightmost Textboxes inside that Rectangle. That will keep the expanding Matrix from pushing out the two rightmost Textboxes as it expands. The other way would be to create a Table, delete the Detail Row, and place the three Textboxes in the Table Header.

AS3 datagrid freeze pane / always show column in scrollable datagrid

Afternoon,
I have a datagrid with some custom renderrers and I'm just curious how I should approach the ability to freeze and always show the left 3 most columns at all times when scrolling left/right.
I thought that I might have to resort to 2 datagrids, side-by-side, the first showing the 3 columns that I want at all times, and the ability to scroll the rest. Only issue then I guess is linking the row selection to select that row in both and to tie the column sorts together...
Or would it be better to try and take columns 4+ and shrink their width to 0 as a person scrolls right, and then increase it back to the max width as they scroll left? Though that would cause funny issues to happen as the content of the datagrid would get smaller and smaller until you were 100% to the right and the scrollbar would disappear...
Any thoughts?
thanks,
jc
Assuming you're using Flex, the datagrid property you're looking for is called lockedColumnCount. If you set lockedColumnCount="3", then the first 3 columns (from the left) of your data grid will always show.

Report items affecting each others positions in SSRS 2008

I'm having trouble with some report items changing other items' positions when they are conditionally hidden.
I've been using Reporting Services 2000 for printing item price labels as PDFs, with the report consisting of a single table with a single cell for each item. The data fields and other items on the label are all placed inside a single rectangle. Because of the very specific layout required, some of the report items overlap in the designer in order to position correctly on the rendered PDF.
This has worked fine for several years, until we upgraded to SSRS 2008 and I had to migrate the report to the new version.
Now, suddenly, when certain items on the report are hidden (by an expression in the Hidden-property), certain other items shift their positions. In some cases, even the containing rectangle is resized.
After quite a bit of googling, I've come to the understanding that SSRS 2008 attempts to maintain the relative spacing between report items, so that if an item to the left of another one changes in size, the item to the right is adjusted accordingly.
Apparently, hiding an item equates to changing its size to zero, and so the item next to it is shifted left to fill the gap.
However, I do not want this behavior, since all items should stay in their predefined positions regardless of others.
So, does anyone know of a way to "fix" report item positions, so that they are not affected by hiding other items?
I've tried placing the items inside separate rectangles so as to group them, in the hope that only items inside the same rectangle can affect each other, but this does not seem to help.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
In the side by side example, you can place the control that may be hidden into a rectangle big enough to hold both; but then put the other control that must stay in a fixed position BEHIND the rectangle (i.e. the parent of this control is the report rather than the rectangle).
If that's not enough, and the hidden and non-hidden items use the same dataset, you could (shudder) use a giant tablix control with a grouping of =1 and the right number of rows and columns to control the layout (because you can insert rectangles inside).
Some other tricks are to set the color/backgroundcolor properties to white (though in some rendering formats you can click and drag to highlight and still read what was there)... alternately you can go so far as to make the contents of controls all expression based, so as not to produce anything if a condition is met, and so it's basically invisible.
Another approach: create rectangles containing the fields you want to hide, then put a WHITE line across the entire bottom (or top) of the rectangle. This keeps the rectangle the same size even if the fields within it are hidden. A rectangle will shrink if the fields within it shrink, but the line spanning the entire rectangle prevents this from happening.
Not sure if this will help anyone else as it's a fairly specific requirement but it solved my variant of the OPs issue so here goes. I was designing an SSRS report to print labels (in my case the Avery 5164) and the users wanted to pick which labels on the sheet they would print because they may have already used one or two labels from a page. Because the positioning of the printed labels is important I needed them to stay in place even if the labels above them on the sheet were hidden. My solution was to create empty rectangles of the same size as the label and lay them directly on top of the existing rectangles. Even if I hide two, three, four, etc... labels, the rest will stay put.
Just draw a Rectangle, and slightly overlay the Objects with the Conditional Hidden expression with the position of your new empty Rectangle. Objects out to the right will be held in place by the Rectangle. No background colors or anything, just a Rectangle. Works vertically like if you have an address block and you want objects underneath the address lines to stay put. Like so...
