Keep preview on landscape

I'm creating my first report in ssrs and it should be printed in landscape.

Right-clicking the preview and selecting Page Setup allows me to set the page orientation. Whenever I change anything on the layout page, the page properties revert to portrait.

Any idea how to make my layout -> check preview -> layout development cycle a bit more pleasant?

Solution

  • Found the answer myself :S

    In 2005:

    • Select Layout tab
    • Choose Report => Report Properties => Layout
    • Set dimensions to choice

    In 2008 (not personally tested)

    • Report Menu => Report Properties => landscape or portrait
