In those 3 years Telerik has produced an enormous number of new products and features such as Just Code, Just Mock, Web UI Test Studio, Open Access ORM, Team Pulse, etc. People have been asking for an End User designer for 3 years. All I can tell you is that from a customer perspective - or at least *my* perspective - the other Telerik tools get a LOT more resources than reporting. I'm certainly not here to bad-mouth Telerik or assert that the reporting team is sub-par. In short, in this case it is not only a matter of available resources and desire to implement the feature, but lack of clear idea how we should proceed, which requires more thorough research, which means less time for other features.ĭon't get us wrong, we're not running away from our responsibility to deliver, we just want to make sure we deliver features with the Telerik quality you're used to. Thus, it is not very clear how we should proceed with this request and once we come up with a feasible idea, we would surely implement it. The report footer on the other hand follows explicit logic to be after the last report section and thus cannot be easily changed. The latter on the other hand is a building block of the whole report concept, namely page headers/footers are not related to the report itself, but are relative to the margins of the report's media, i.e.
We tend to listen to customers and to the features you ask about, but sometimes the big picture is different and matters more.Īnyway, about that feature - it seems that the main reason why people ask for it is, because of the inability to use database fields in the page sections. If you consider yourself lucky, then the one you've wished for would be in the RoadMap and be part of our next release. You have to carefully weigh up features and tag a few as more important for upcoming release. Resources are always a problem especially when you have to catch up with the competition which are 5 or more years ahead of you.
