SSRS Report builder border in bold error

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Hein Kruger

Hi All,

I created a table within a table in SSRS Report builder (Just to keep the structure correct.). The client wants the border of the table in bold and with a thicker width than the lines within the table.
I Created the Bold lines on the inner and out table, but no luck. the inner lines of the table is either the same thickness or thicker than the inner lines.
See my output and Report design below.

What I have tried:
* Remove all the lines on the inner and outer table and manually insert all the lines in the inner table only.
* Add border lines of 2pt to the outer lines of only the inner table or only the outer table or on both with the inner table lines on 1pt.
* View in Preview and print mode
* View on 500%+ on Edge and Adobe Acrobat
* Actually printing the document.

Many thank in advance.

    Hello,

    We currently do not have dedicated Dev support via the Dynamics 365 Business Central forums, but I wanted to provide you some additional resources to assist. If you need assistance with debugging or coding I would recommend discussing this on one of our communities.

    I will open this up to the community in case they have something to add.

    Thanks.

    Hi Marco,

    Thank you for the reply.

    We managed to solve it as follow:

    The thick inner lines where caused by the overlap of upper and lower lines for each row in the Table. If you wanted 1pt thick rows you need to change the thickness of the top and bottom to 0.5pt

    The outer table lines cut the border lines of the inner table.

    To counter this we made sure there is row and columns all around the inner table like in the image. 

    You can shrink the rows and columns to a very small size and still get the result.

    Further we made the inner lines 0.5pt and the outer border 2.5pt
