Showing Multiple data containers on the same page in HTML and PDF

If you multiple data containers like list, crosstab and chart in one page, you can control how the report is rendered in HTML and PDF by setting the rows per page property for each container. 

For HTML output, the report property option "Page break by data container for interactive HTML" controls whether the default number of rows is rendered for each data container on each page. You must set the "Page break by data container for interactive HTML" option to Yes. The default value is No.

If the rows per page property not set for any of the data containers, 20 rows per page are rendered in HTML and each page is filled in PDF. The first data container is rendered until there is no data, followed by the next data container. The number of rows that appear in a PDF page depends on the Font size of the report. 

If the Rows Per Page property is set for each data container, the specified numbers of rows are rendered in HTML and PDF on each page until there is no more data.

How to set the report property option:

1. In report studio, go to file menu and click on Report Properties
2. Change the 'Page break by data container for interactive HTML' drop down to 'YES'
