Column header direction is SSRS Matrix - reporting-services

Hi is it possible to change the direction of column header values ?
By default header valules displayed in horizontal direction only. But I want to show the values in vertical direction. Is it possible?
I tried from the last 3 days. But no where I got any good results.
Thanks in advance

Which version of SSRS are you using? As far as I know, you can only change the orientation of the text in chart axes (at least in 2005).

Vary the colors of same-series data markers in a chart in SSRS

Hello I have a Column Chart in SSRS . There is only one data series. I want to give green color for top 4 and blue colors for the rest ones in this series as you can see in the picture.This is an image that ı want to make but when ı prepare a "custompalettecolors" it still gives all the column same color.(I think this is for charts with different series but ı have only one series and many columns).So can you give me some advice for this ?
I believe you can by using a formula in the fill if you have someway in the data to specify the top 4. On fill properties for the series:
Now the question is: What goes in the formula? You'll need something in your data that ranks the items. so, that you could create a formula like this:
=iif(Fields!Ranking.Value<=4,"Green","Blue")
I would do this in my T-SQL. Not seeing your dataset, I can't tell you exactly how to proceed. I hope this gets you started

SSRS single bar-chart

Good day all,
Please am trying to create a SSRS report that looks like the image below
i have my table structure in this manner
Please note the data are not in relation with the chart
But all i could get as a result is a multiple bar chart. that resembles the image below.
Thanks in anticipations of your response
First of all, your "Balance on COC" is negative. That's probably not just a chart visualization issue.
You can format the numbers on the y-axis to be more readable like they are in your first screenshot. Click on the Chart Axis and set the LabelsFormat property to #,0;(#,0).
While numbers in the chart can have up to 16 digits, that is highly unreadable for most people. You might want to consider visualizing the numbers in Billions instead.
To get the labels on the x-axis you'll need to set that field as the Category Group. Then you can delete the legend area from the chart. You can also remove the "Axis Title" areas since they are not needed in this case. This will all make it look more polished like the other image.

Report elements on left getting pushed down when tablix on the right side expands

I have a report with a tablix on the right side and several textboxes arranged in rows and columns on the left. While previewing the report, the tablix gets expanded with the separate values in them and because of which some of the text boxes are also getting pushed down leaving blanks spaces and making the report look unformatted.
I have attached the report format. Please let me know if you have any solution to this issue.
You need to place your report items in rectangles to stop them interacting with each other. Put your items on the left all into the same one and the table on the right into it's own.
Have you tried setting the Can Grow attribute to False or did you need it to expand? If so I would actually increase your Tablix size to the max it can to not push the text boxes and then set the property to Can Grow to false.
I think I know why rectangles didn't work for you. I have a similar report I am trying to create with the same format. I had the same problem you mentioned where white space appeared above my report objects, and the objects on the left still did not appear in the correct places.
What I found was that you need to create the rectangle first and then add objects into it. It appears that the above problem occurs when you try to place a rectangle on top of your report objects.
I know this is 4 years late, but I thought this might hopefully save someone some time.
Go to Report Properties to select columns number from 1 to 2 to see information side by side instead of going to next page.

Reporting Services - aligning a right-to-left matrix

In a RS report I have a matrix whose LayoutDirection property is set to RTL (because it's in Hebrew). I created a column group by dragging a field form the dataset field list and dropping it in the column header of the matrix. So the number of the columns is variable (which is OK).
When I view the report, the order of the columns is correct (from right to left). But the problem is that the matrix grows to the right and is always aligned to the left. The report is RTL, so I need the way around, i.e. I want the matrix to be aligned to the right and grow to the left.
I couldn't find a way to fix it. Could you please help me to solve this problem? Thanks.
The way to fix it is by setting the property called "RightToLeft" in the "ReportViewer" control to "Yes".
The report viewer is the control which host and present the RDL. by default the report viewer set to left to right and not to RTL.
I have used it at my company and it works fine!

Slanted column heading - SSRS reports

Can anyone please tell me if it is possible to create an SSRS 2008 report which has slanted/angled column headers like in the screenshot below?
I've searched for a solution to this, but haven't found anything of use.
In a word, no, SSRS won't do this. 90 degree rotated text is possible as you've probably seen
You actually have two problems:
1. Slanted text.
2. Non rectangle cells.
There are potential workaround to solve the first problem: create a text graphic on the fly, use stylesheet tricks, &c.
But the second problem will be very difficult if not entirely impossible to solve. SSRS, and many of the formats to which it exports, only support rectangle cells.
It is actually possible to create slanted text in SSRS, but not slanted text boxes. Just paste a column chart into the cell, style the horizontal axis as needed to slant the text at the desired angle, and delete all data series and the vertical axis, title and key from the chart.
If the text is to show at the top of a column that repeats in a column group, assign the same dataset to the chart as the body of the table and filter the chart so that only the relevant column of the chart shows in each column of the expanded table. The filter will look like [HeadingFieldName] = [HeadingFieldName], because you are essentially joining the dataset to itself on this column.
