If you want to set the height and width of a report then select Master Page from the tab menu, then click the properties tab directly beneath > Here you can see & set the height and width which can be changed to percentages.

You should get the screen size and use the ratio to set position. The ratio is useful for different screen size.

how to fit content of reports so that we can print it on A4 size

I have created a report in ssrs 2008 r2.It is larger then the normal A4 size .So when i export the report in word i see it clearly but when i see print preview of the report in to the word its contents get cut from the right end.I think it is due to report size. Is there any way so that we can fit the content at the time of export in to the ms word so that user can clearly take a print out in A4 size.
The only way to do this is to physically decrease the size of your report when building it as there is no auto size capability in report builder.
Right click and properties on the grey back ground. Then change the size and orientation as required.
Then click on the white body and ensure the properties bar is open. Expand the size properties option and set the size of your report to reflect the previous selection.
Also don't forget to set the margins as this will effect the amount of printable space on your report.
Lastly ensure you alter the size of you fonts and report parts to fit on the size required.
I'd love to see an automatic sizing feature in the report builder for exporting.
This is because your report content size is greater than the report size.
Report size for an A4 page is 8.5*11 inch,if your content is greater than the report size then it will move the columns to the next .
Adjust the Size of each Tablix which should be less than your report size.
Select Tablix to view properties.
expand the size option and adjust width and height accordingly.
Thanks
Just increase height and width of paper size in Report builder properties. Doesn't have any sense but it works for me.
In Report Builder in the Report Properties change the width of the report so that it exceeds the width of your data. Exporting to both Word and PDF will mean that it fits the page width. You can also adjust the height so that the report fills your desired paper size.

GWT Datagrid horizontal scrollbar doesn't appear

i have a small screen and i want the horizontal scrollbar on datagrid to appear automatically.
i've used:
dataGrid.setMinimumTableWidth(1500, Unit.PX);
this sets the width both the scrollbar still not appear
any tip?
I had a similar problem. When using DatGrid make sure you place it within a ResizeLayoutPanel. Set the height of the panel to xxx PX and the width to a yyy %. Then for the DataGrid just set width to 100%. Column widths units can be EM, PCT, or PX. In fact do not set all column widths to total 100%, otherwise you'll get funky display issues. Hope this helps.
So I tested out this code, both scrollbars show.
<g:ResizeLayoutPanel height="480px" width="760px">
<c:DataGrid width="100%" addStyleNames='{style.cellTable}' ui:field="testResultTable"/>
</g:ResizeLayoutPanel>

How to increase Detail band height dynamically

My requirement is to increase the Detail band height dynamically when the text field has more data. Are there any settings to increase to it? I am using one textField in the Detail band when it has more information (words), it is displaying only some information.
i.e the words are being cut off. Depending on the detail band height the words are displaying. I would like to increase the band height dynamically when the text field has more data.
First select your field and set following properties (third one is most important):
Position type: float
Stretch type: relative to tallest object
Stretch with overflow: true (checked)
Go to Report level properties. Advanced - Set the Column count and then Print order as Horizontal
Try setting the text field and surround object to Position Type Float in the object's properties.
This should let the report expand as the text field grows.

jasper report height

I am creating a jasper report. The default size of the report is A4. I want to change the report's height dynamically. I am using HTML Export.So it is creating a html for A4 size(Even though content size is half of the A4 size). If the report content size is small, I want the html page size also small.
Is it possible to achieve?
Try setting the contents Position type to Float in the elements properties.
