I created a web based SSRS report and it displays perfectly. By default it zooms to "Whole Page" but when I change the percentage to something else -say- 25%, it changes but when I return it to "Whole Page", it stays the same.
QA is giving me a hard time so I was just wondering what the "Whole Page" option was for?
Thanks
You can read more about the various SSRS device settings here. The "Zoom" option is, I believe, only available on HTML rendering - it won't carry over to your typical export formats.
Zoom can be set to either a % value, or the string values "Whole Page" and "Page Width". "Whole page". The string values are pretty self-explanatory.
"Page Width" will scale your report horizontally so that it fits perfectly within with pages horizontal margins. There should be no horizontal scrolling necessary to view the report, though vertical scrolling will still be necessary.
"Whole Page" will attempt to zoom the report to such a level that the entire page is displayed at once in your report viewing frame - whether than means scaling it up or down.
Try testing this behavior with reports that contain objects besides just tables - tables are somewhat flexible already, and can be hard to identify scaling behavior with. Also, try changing your browser window size between executions - shrinking your browser to like 1/4th of your screen and running a report with a "Whole Page" zoom level should results in an almost unreadable report.

I have pop-up form for data entry. The form has a subform on it that is surrounded by blank cells of equal sizes similar to padding. (Why not use padding instead? Because I want to add functionality to those cells later on). When I view the form in form view (opening it), part of the right hand side is cut off such that it no longer looks like equally sized padding.
What's weird is that if I look at the form in layout view, the form is not cut off. And if I then open the form FROM Layout view, the form is also not cut off. But if I open the form in any other way (from a button, vba, right click open from navigator etc.), it is being cut off every time.
Does anybody know why this might be happening and how I might fix it?
Form being cut off
Form not cut off in layout view
Form not cut off when opened FROM layout view
I found this issue occurs when working in access with a higher display resolution than 1920x1080. 3440x1440 in my case.
The only solutions I have found is what you described by opening the form in layout view then switching to form view then save the form.
Only other option is changing display resolution.
I'd like to share a "work around" on this same subject, hopefully it may help in certain cases where the issue is NOT due to Form Sizing through VBA code, which is determined to be the cause inadvertently.
My scenario:
Popup forms, set to auto center, auto resize, fit to screen = truncated, or overcropped form (and DESPITE my own VBA sizing code, which doesn't seemingly "take" or correct the issue).
I usually/often have the scrollbars property set to "neither", so I tried setting "both" on, and the popup form is no longer truncated. I then tried with ONLY the "Horizonal" bar set to on, and it still worked correctly. I then turned both BACK OFF and the form still sized correctly. I saved the form and it appears to have retained the "sizing" properly going forward.
It's as if when you turn these options to neither, the space normally occupied by those scrollbars is "taken off" the borders of the form "again" so maybe toggling that property to both/vertical only/horizontal only/neither "resets" and corrects it. Just a guess.
Hope this helps, spread the word of this little "work around."

Let me explain the situation.
I need to copy a lot of instances of a text inside a project of PhpStorm. So, I perform a 'Find in Path' action and a floating window appears with the matching results.
Now my problem is that after copying once from the floating window, if I click on another app window, then PhpStorm's main window/PhpStorm itself go to background, then if I want to copy text from the floating window again, I can not use any keyboard shortcut, I can not modify any line in the floating window because PhpStorm stays in background/inactive-mode even if I click on its floating window.
If I click anywhere in the PhpStorm except the main top-white bar of PhpStorm, then the floating window disappear, which causes me to perform the search again.
It is reducing my productivity a lot. Is there any way to make the PhpStorm active or bring it foreground when clicking its floated search window?
Please see the screenshot:

You are approaching the problem from the a bit wrong angle. There is a better solution than fighting the focus/foreground state.
There is a button in the bottom right corner of "Find in Path" window ("Open in Find" it says on your screenshot) -- click it and it will open search results in traditional / standard Search Results tool window (with grouping by folders/files, preview area etc)... so no floating and no auto closing on clicking somewhere.
P.S. Lots of people forgetting that results shown in this new "Find in Path" dialog/popup is still just a preview (TOP 100 matches only). Super functional (you can edit and stuff) but still preview only. This mainly applies to those who remember the way how this dialog (back then it was dialog window) looked before redesign (now it's more of a popup).
Because of the way how it is all presented now (results occupy majority of the popup space) people somehow automatically forgetting about "traditional" way of searching (clicking actual "Find" button to get search working) and focusing only on what they see on a screen right now.
This new "Find in Path" dialog/popup adds a lot of convenience for sure (you typed search text and results are straight away before your eyes). At the same time quite often you may see/hear "it does not show me all results" frustrated comments (as it shows top 100 .. and a single file may have 100+ hits in some cases) and alike. JetBrains needs to improve UX a bit in this area for sure.
I'm developing an SSRS report in Visual Studio 2012. The report is set up to use landscape orientation. There is a 0.25in margin on the left and no margin on the right. The report is 10.5 inches wide. ConsumeContainerWhitespace is set to True. There are no hidden objects outside of the normal report area.
When I look at the report in print view or actually print it out there is a huge amount of white space on the right side of the report. It's almost like the report is being shrunk and then left justified when printing.
I would love to get this fixed so the report prints the same as it looks in the designer. If anyone has an opinion or some input it would be most welcome. Thank you!
This problem appears when a Windows 10 user has their DPI set to a value that is higher than %100. If DPI is set to %100 then the issue does not occur and no white space is seen when doing a print view or actually printing the report.
This is a common issue with Windows 10 and certain applications including ClickOnce apps like the one I'm using to run the reports. There does not seem to be a way to fix this from within Visual Studio as you can't make an application DPI aware that uses the ClickOnce deployment model.
The following steps will fix a Report temporarily until it is updated and the .exe is overwritten. This fix will also work for other Windows 10 apps, including Chrome, that appear blurry from using a custom DPI over %100. Be aware though that while this fix will fix blurry fonts in a ClickOnce app and white space in an SSRS report it can also disturb control positioning and form size.
Navigate to C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0
Under the 2.0 directory you will see one or more folders that are named with a random set of letters and numbers. Within these directories you must find the folder for the desired application. The folders will usually start with the first 3 or four letters of the application but there can be more than one folder that exists for your application.
Locate the .exe for your application. There may be more than one .exe for your app so apply this fix fix to all of them just to be sure.
Rightclick on the .exe and select properties and click the Compatibility tab.
Check the Disable display scaling on high DPI settings checkbox and click OK
Rerun your application and create a report that opens the report viewer.
Click the Print Layout button. The report should now be displayed with no white space on the right.
Print the report. There should be no extra white space on the right side of the report.
You can also work around the issue by temporarily setting your DPI back to %100 but I think that is a poor solution.
If it is a matrix report, you may also try setting the ConsumeContainerWhiteSpace to true. It is Report level property that you can find under "Other".
or else if it is a tabular report then adjust the margin and width accordingly.

You have me stumped but things I would check:
There isn't a textbox or label or something pushing past the boundary of the expected margin. This causes the report to print like what you are seeing. Just expand the report and make sure everything is actually less than 10.25 inches.
Is your paper size set to letter?
I created a report in Visual Studio 2012 and am having issues with the report resizing when I try to print it to pdf or view in print layout. I sent the .rdl to others on my team and they printed it to pdf with no issues.
I tried adjusting the margins, page size, interactive size, as well as turning ConsumeAllwhitespace=true. I also installed all updates and nothing seems to correct the issue. Any suggestions?
Page Size: 8.5"x 11"
Margins: 0.25",0.25",0.25",0.25"
Interactive Size: 8.5"x 11"
Body: 8", 4.15"
Example:
Try to set CanGrow properties to false from the report properties page
Give this a try.
First set your Margins to .5in". I have tested this and this is the smallest your margins can be for your report to print correctly.
Next drag your report right border to just under 7.5" (just to where that half inch hash mark is not visible). Make sure you drag your table content to fill white space.
If you're still having issues in your print dialog, check the PDF print settings. Open a PDF and go to the print dialog. Under Page Size & Handling there are FIT, ACTUAL SIZE, SHRINK, and CUSTOM SCALE. Custom Scale at 100% will guarantee the PDF will print at the correct size. Whatever setting you set here seems to apply to all PDF print dialogs.
If that doesn't work, try using Report Builder. Less frills but always works right!
I'm looking to make a home page for a set of SSRS reports with just title and a few hyperlinks to other reports.
How do you make the title fit the size of your screen rather than Report Manager just showing its actual size?
When looking at Report Manager there are big blocks of white down the side of the screen depending on the monitor size.
The only way you can achieve this is to set the report Zoom property to Page Width in the URL, for example:
http://myrshost/ReportServer?/AdventureWorks/Employee_Sales_Summary&rc:Zoom=Page%20Width
There are a lot of other things you can configure via the URL as well - such as hiding toolbars, passing parameters, displaying breadcrumb navigation, etc - which you may find interesting to have a look at:
