Reporting Services incorrect icon on show/hide group


I have created a parameter on a report that allows the user to open all the group details or hide group details when the report is run.

This works, but when you run the report and select to expand the groups, the little icon use use to show/hide on the report is a + symbol instead of a - one.

While the actual report is right, i can see it confusing the users somewhat as it looks like there is something hidden, when in fact its all there -

Any one seen this or know how to fix it?


Solution

  • You can set the initial appearance of the toggle icon for the textbox properties (The textbox that controls the visibility of a row/group). You can find this setting under the Visibility tab of the textbox properties dialog box. Use an expression to determine the initial appearance of the icon for different toggle items.
