empty page after tablix (Reporting services 2008) - reporting-services

I have created a report which contains a tablix. I observed that when the
tablix contains a certain amount of rows, a blank page is added after the page with the tablix with only the header and footer of my report.This happens both in design and print view, even if the tablix has only about 10 rows and there is a lot of space till the end of the report body (which has a height of 27cm).
I have not added any kind of page break. Has somebody perhaps had this issue?

set the ConsumeContainerWhiteSpace property for the tablix to true.
If that doesn't work.
check that the (Body Height + Header height + Footer Height) = report page size height
(body width = header width = footer width = report page size width)

It seems a good idea to set the width of the body a little less than page width - (left + right margin).
In my last report, page width was 21 cm with both left and right margin = 0.5 cm. With a body width of 20 cm and ConsumeContainerWhiteSpace=true, I still got a second page in print layout, but not with a body width of 19.9 cm.

SSRS Report Stacked Bar Chart Bar Width changing while printing the report

In the design view of SSRS Report Builder, the developer had set the custom attributes for the bar "PixelPointWidth" to 30.
The width of the bar in the bar-chart is appearing good while viewing the report in the browser. However, when trying to export it to pdf or to print the report, the width of the bar in the bar-cart becomes very thin and the text labels within becomes almost unreadable.
Same scenario happens with stacked-bar-chart as well. Tried changing the pixepointwidth and other related parameters but in-effect the issue remains as is.
I'm not sure why the PixelPointWidth would not be left as default, maybe the developer thought this was the way to adjust the width of the bars (which it does, but not directly).
What you should probably do is set the PixelPointWidth to 0 (default) and then adjust the PointWidth property instead, so that you get the desired width.
PixelPointWidth (I think) sets the datapoint width to an exact number of pixels, depending on how you render the report, that will result in different physical dimensions (150 pixels at 100dpi is roughly 38mm but at 150dpi it's approx 25.4mm)
Here's an exmaple where I set the top bar to PixelPointWidth=40 and the bottom bar to PointWidth=0.5 . In design view, on my monitor, it appears the top bar is slightly smaller than the bottom bar.
When previewed (screen rendering) they appear more or less identical heights.
When I render the report to a PDF they look totally different.
As I said earlier, if you set the PixelPointWidth to 0 (default) and then adjust the PointWidth as a percentage of the default gap between categories then you should get much more consistent results. If you set the PointWidth to 1 there will be no gap between each bar, if you set it to 0.8 (default) then the bar will consume 80% of the space and the gap will consume the remaining 20%

Tablix width is decresing in printout

I have 1 tablix in my report of 24.8cm width, i given a printout of this report, but in printout my tablix width converted into 23.8cm.
pls tell me why this is happening?
This might have something to do with your PageSize and the Margins. It's even possible that the table's border-width are causing it to be only just too wide to fit.
If there is not enough horizontal space on the page to place the entire table, the table will shrink in width.
Max Table's width = Page's width - (Margin-Left + Margin-Right)
So I suggest you try one of the following:
Reduce the size of the Left- or Right-Margin property.
Increase the Width of the PageSize property.

CSS Missing Pixels, Size of full width block != Width of page

Anyone else facing this issue? When you sum up the width of all objects (including border,padding,margin) spanning the width of a page or simply a full width block, it does not add up to the width of the window; width of the window being the width indicated by Chrome Dev Tools.
It always seems to be 17 or 18 pixels short, i.e. content is n-17 px wide on a n px window.

<body> and <html> height and layout trouble

I've got two pages, page A which has a lot of content and requires scrolling down, and page B which has little content and only takes up half the browser window. I'm trying to stick a footer down at the very bottom of both pages, regardless of the size of their content.
Here is what I've been trying to do. I've two containers inside the body, one for footer and one for everything else, call it main-wrapper. I've put borders aroudn the wrappers and body to see wheree they take up. Main wrapper will take up all the content on page A, but on page B it will only sit around the actual content, it's bottom-border is half way down the page, even though the body body takes up the full screen. I've set the main-warpper height to 100% so why won't it take uo the full body???
This is how I would approach this situation. It sounds like you need to set a min-height on your main-wrapper instead of just having it's height set to 100% of the filling container. Due to screen sizes greatly varying from user to user, you'll need to use a little javascript/jquery to try and calculate the page height. Try something like this
$(document).ready(function() {
var pageHeight = $("body").height();
pageHeight -= 200; // Whatever the height of your footer is. Make sure to subtract that out
$("#main-wrapper").css("min-height", pageHeight + "px");
});
