Whitespace increases after hiding several elements rdlc report - rdlc

I have several Tablixes in my RDLC report that each one display/hide based on its own data existence condition. sometimes when 3 or 4 several tablixes set to hidden, an empty space increases between displaying items based on number of hidden tables. How can I keep this space constant ignoring number of hidden elements?

Instead of separating tables with white spaces you can add an extra row header with no border that will be hide with its table.
For example:
TABLE 1: no extra row header
TABLE 2: yellow row header
TABLE 3: orange row header
TABLE 4: red row header

SSRS Dynamic Width for Body of Report

I have a report that currently has a table with 10 columns. I have visibility rules set on the last 5 columns to hide in some scenarios. When I hide those columns there is a large amount of white space on the right side of the report. I do not want this, i want the table to fill out the page. Ideally SSRS would have the capability to have the page width be dynamic and move with the width of the table, but that does not appear to be the case.
I tried creating two tables, one with 10 columns and one with 5 and set the visibility rules on the table, but that created the same problem, a lot of white space on the right side when the table with 5 columns was selected, because the width of the page was set for the 10 column table.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a workaround or how to fix this issue? I know I could create two reports, but I'm hoping to avoid that option.

How can I determine whether a table row immediately follows a page break

Given a Word table which spans several pages, how can my code determine that a table row is the first following an automatic page break? Note that table rows are of different heights thus a solution of the form "every 13th row is the first row on a new page" won't work.
The point of this would be to add extra text in the first cell at the top of every new page.
Use wdActiveEndPageNumber for that table row. Be sure that row is as big as it's going to get before checking the page number.
n = word.ActiveDocument.Tables(a).rows(b).Range.Information(wdActiveEndPageNumber)
If the table is sufficiently large that it splits over several pages then you compare the page number of consecutive rows until the page number changes. There are no pagebreaks to speak of.

How to add extra blank rows in crystal report after loading data in VB.net?

I have a quaestion with regards to adding extra blank rows after loading the data. The reason for adding extra blank rows is to achieve the format of the given report. Example, in the traning and seminar table, the given format is 20 rows. If it has only 15 trainings in the record, there should be 5 more blank rows to be added to achieve the format. I hope you get what i am trying to explain.

How to keep Reporting services table in the same page

Is it possible to keep table column within the same page? It always go to the new page when table width is larger than page.
I design a report with TableA that have dynamic columns. The dynamic columns are in short format. For example: BS, BN, OT...
In order to understand column meaning, I have to create another table, TableB, below the table to explain. I want to display it horizontally. For example: BS: Basic Salary| BN: Bonus| OT: Over Time| ...
But when TableB has many columns, It go to new page and leave a lot of blank space in previous page. I want to keep columns in the same page, if possible.
I want TableB to display like this:
|X:xx| X:xx | X:xx| X:xx| (Edge of right page)
|X:xx| X:xx|
You're using a horizontal table, a great tutorial is described here
You probably have most of the horizontal table figured out, just this part is important to your issue.
Step 4
Right-click on the column header and select "Edit Group". Enter this
for the group expression: =RowNumber(Nothing). This will cause the
matrix to give you one column per row of data. Since horizontal tables
can end up rather wide, you probably want your table wrap around to
the next "line" after a specific number of columns.
Just simply count the number of rows that fit your page exactly and define this number in your column group expression as described in the tutorial.
Use Column Visibility to hide column instead of Cell Visibility. This should eliminate the blank space.
If the report is still too big, set the report interactive size to 0in,0in. This will keep everything in one page.

Automatic Chart Pagination with Report Parameters

Based on several report parameters in SQL Server 2005 reporting services, I would like to automatically generate one or several chart(s) for each row in the return result and paginate or space them out. How do I go about that?
If the number of charts will vary for each row, but the variations are known (e.g. it's either just chart 1, or chart 1 and 3, or charts 1 2 and 3) then it's simple enough using a table.
In the default detail row add any normal fields you need. Now insert a new detail row for each chart you might need. Lastly set the visibility of each chart row based on your rules, noting that the rule will hide the row if your expression evaluates to true. Make sure you select the row using the area to the left of the left-most cell, if you got it right you'll see that it's a row in the properties grid.
To get the layout you want you can merge cells for the charts to go in, or use a single cell and put a Rectangle in it, then in the Rectangle lay out your other controls.
Any rows that are hidden will be collapsed, so you wont get big empty sections like you can if you simply toggle the visibility of the charts themselves.
What you can do is place a List control on the page, set List grouping by record unique key (ID, or several fields if composite), and place a charts on the List. Next, set items visibility expressions to control it with report parameters.
