Make row occupy space avaiable


How can I make a row of a tablix occupy the remaining space of a page?

Things I tried:

  • Create a new empty row and adjust its height to occupy the page, but this row has a fixed height meaning if I have more data the table will expand to the next page
  • I changed CanShrink and CanGrow without avail
  • Changed the cell height instead of row height it gives the same behavior as before

I'm afraid it won't be possible to do this.


Solution

  • Only if the report takes only one page

    One way to do this is to separate the totals into a different table and use rectangles to simulate the columns.

    enter image description here

    Found a workaround that works for multiple pages (almost)

    • Place the 1st table contents inside a rectangle
    • Enable Add a page break after, in the rectangle properties
    • Place the totals outside the rectangle
    • keep using rectangles to simulate do columns (those rectangles need to be inside the rectangle that breaks the page
    • Done
