headers scroll on same page in vs but not after deployment to servers

Question

hi we run 2014. we will upgrade to 2019 next year.

this is an extension of the post at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/986282/1st-column-of-grid-overlays-other-items-as-i-scrol.html?childToView=989107#answer-989107 .

i have set fixed data to true on the 1st two static items featured there. And I get the intended "headers scroll on same page" effect in vs. but when i deploy to our dev and qa servers, that effect isn't working. can someone suggest a solution?

Answer 1

Hi @db042190 ,
Do you want to keep the tablix header visible while scrolling or the first column of data is visible? As far as I know, the FixedDate property only works with First TablixMember. When I deploy to the report server it works fine.

See more: Keep headers visible when scrolling through a paginated report (Report Builder).

Answer 2

Hi @db042190
Do you mean that after you deploy, scrolling doesn't work when viewed in the browser? Maybe you can try to open Tablix properties, click Repeat Header Rows on each Page and Keep Header Rows Visible While Scrolling.

It could also be a compatibility issue, you can check the compatibility settings: fix-site-display-issues-with-compatibility-view-in-internet-explorer-11-9a0a3a6e-89be-518f-ff56-c491b528b302

thx joyzhao and aniya.

joyzhao, the only thing that isnt working now (that i want) is what the author at your link says is accomplished by setting fixed data to true on the static members you want to "freeze" as you are scrolling vertically. it works in vs preview but not when deployed to 2 servers so far.

aniya, the property you suggested trying is not for tablix's. but i tried anyway. no luck.

right now i have fixed data = true on the 2 row group static members. and i still have it on the 1st col group static member but i'd forgotten i even had it there. i dont think the col group setting is affecting anything but who knows. this part of ssrs is very confusing.
