SSRS Text Box Alignment - Page Footer


I've been struggling with this for a while.
In several of the SSRS reports, the text boxes in the page footer, that contain a user's name and the print date of the report, won't align to the right side of the report (see Page 1 - Page Footer image). What's weird is that the last page aligns correctly to the far right, as it is set up in the design view (see Last Page - Page Footer image). I have removed the report user name from the images for security reasons. Please note, this is not the text alignment inside the box but the box itself.

Thank you in advance.


Solution

  • I figured out by accident how to resolve this issue. I'm wondering if it's a design issue in SSRS and/or Visual Studio 2013.
    I expanded the two text boxes on the right all the way to the left and connected them to to additional text boxes I had on the left side of the page. When I previewed the report the right two text boxes were aligned on to the far right of the page as they should have been. See image below.
