Default the view to 'Tile View' in SSRS


I am working on SSRS 2008 and was wondering that if there is a way to change the view of the report list to "Tile View" instead of the default "Details View".

Here's a screenshot of the Web Portal Report Manager

Here the reports are being displayed what called as the "Tile View" (top-right).

What if I need to open reports-list in Tile View by default instead of Details View (which just display reports just like Thumbnails in Windows Explorer)?


Solution

  • Linked screenshot is actually showing "Details view" (top right button labeled "Tile view" is in fact button that you need to click to change view to "Tile view")

    So if I understood what you really want correctly this should be solution:

    Bookmark this link http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx?ViewMode=Detail in IE and it will get you to root Reports folder in "Details view".
