I would like to remove excess space that is appearing between the legend of my bar chart and where the bars begin. It appears that the amount of this white space changes depending on how many bars are in the chart (determined by the parameters the user selects). Additionally, there is white space about the same size that appears at the bottom of the report.
I have tried updating the custom position and location of the chart and the inner plot. I have tried using the Point Width as well. See highlighted excess space in red pen below.

I have a SSRS report that fits in one page. When saving it in PDF or Word, a empty second page is created. My borders as set to 0.25 inches. Any ideas on what can be done to prevent printing the second empty page?
Check for these things:
The report body width - if your report width (different than report body) is 8.5in. and you have .25in. left and right margins. Then your report body width has to be 8in. or less.
Page breaks - check your dataset(s) and rectangle (if any) properties to see if you have page break options checked, either "add a page break before" or "add a page break after".
White space - remove any white space from the bottom of your last dataset to the bottom of the report by dragging the bottom edge higher.
I was able to resolve this extra page my moving the footer area next to the bottom of the tablix grid with zero padding in between.
Unable to reduce gap between bars of the same group in bar chart in SSRS 2016
I tried adjusting Point Width in custom attribute to 0.5 but it only reduces the width of the bar but not spacing between the bars. I have enabled data labels and there are some with zero data labels which has been configure to show as spaces. So I guess the space between the bars of the same group is because of the data labels which have been made to show as space. How do I make the bars of the same group close to one another.
I am using SSRS (on top of SQL Server 2014). I am making a 3D horizontal stacked bar chart, but there are some display properties that I cannot figure out, despite all information available.
I Am wondering how/if the two measures in the chart above, a & b, can be set:
(a) The depth of the bar chart. Can I make this smaller? I want a much narrower bar.
(b) The offset of the chart from the axis. Is there a way to make the bar hug right up against the axis? Maybe I'm the only one, but when I look at the right extreme of the bar,I have trouble telling how close it falls to the 300 line due to this unnecessary offset.
Furthermore, does SSRS allow me to control things like the color rendering of the chart? Here is an example from another BI reporting tool:
This one has black outlines around all of the bars. Is SSRS capable of this? Mostly, I am just wondering if SSRS can make a chart that looks more like the latter.
The first two can be easily changed.
To set the bar width and border colour, click on one of the bars then hit F4 to bring up the properties pane.
In the properties, expand Custom Attributes and set the point width to something smaller, say 0.2 and set the border colour and style to your choosing.
Here's a screen-grab of the properties to give a nice garish red border and smaller bars.
To set the bars against the base, go to the horizontal (or vertical if you want to change this too) axis properties and set Side Margins to Disabled.
This gives this output...
I have a display difference when I deploy my report from what I can see in the Preview.
My report is composed of rectangles with elements inside (textbox, indicators, etc.). On the top there is a white rectangle which the size is the same as the body. The background of the body is a light blue. It should appears like this:
But when I deploy it, it appears like this:
There is a strange space between the top rectangle and the end of the body.
I am using Chrome. On Firefox, the space between the white rectangle and the end of the body is smaller but still exists.
The rectangle hasn't any border. Here are his properties:
For the body, I even tried with a white border to hide:
This is the property of the report:
I also tried with a table instead of the top white rectangle but I have the same result.
This is my gantt chart build for SSRS 2008 R2.
You can see light gray vertical lines on the third row, but not on the other lines. This is because these lines are draw under the bar (green and orange). My request is, how to draw these lines (Grid Lines) over bars (green and orange)?
Each line in my Tablix is a chart of type "Range, Bar", but all are on the same time frame.
Thanks
Have you tried setting the ZIndex of the Bar and Range chart?
Highlight the chart hit [F4] and the setting will be at the bottom of the properties tab. Set the ZIndex of the Bar lower than Range.
