Charts/Graphs not showing up in SSRS - graph

I have designed several reports using Visual Studio 10. These reports include many graphs, charts, etc. and they work perfectly on my local machine. However, when I upload the reports to Reporting Server and try to run a report, it seems to hang for a minute or so, then the report displays, minus the graphs. There is an outline of where the graph is supposed to be, with a little picture icon in the upper left corner. I have appropriate permissions, so, not sure what is going one. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Application Insights Metrics Explorer annoyances

"Metric Explorers" on an Azure portal dashboard are quite flexible.
To configure them is, however, a bit painful at times.
With the terms in above image:
How do I change the order of my charts within an explorer?
How do I copy a chart or a whole explorer?
Is there a textual definition I can get or give? Is there other software for a better editing experience?
How do I change the order of my charts within an explorer?
Unfortunately there isn't a direct way to reorder the charts within an explorer. As a workaround you could however, delete them and add them again so that they appear at the bottom. Remember everytime you click 'Add New Chart', it will add it at the bottom.
Also please note that all graphical charts (Line, Area and Bar) appear above whereas a Grid chart will always appear at the bottom. So here's an even simpler hack that you could use: If there's any chart that you want to send to them bottom, change it's type to Grid and then change it back again. It'll get pushed to the end.
How do I copy a chart or a whole explorer?
You can click on More and then click Save Favorite which will save the whole metrics explorer blade (including all custom charts). You can give it a name and even save as a copy to create multiple copies of the whole explorer.
To access favorites, you'll have to go to the Overview tab and click on More followed by Favorites again. Favorites can be shared as well as personal.
Is there a textual definition I can get or give? Is there other software for a better editing experience?
There isn't a textual definition that you can provide for the charts. If you'd like to see this feature, you can add to the user voice or open an issue on github.
There isn't a software available for creating charts in the metrics explorer blade. However, there are alternatives for visualizing and querying data. You can take a look at Analytics if you prefer writing queries to filter insights and telemetry data. It has a very easy-to-learn query language which can help create meaningful charts very easily. There is a lot of tooling and support to push these charts to Power BI as well.
Hope this helps!

Section Lines Disappearing Graphical Issue

I am having a display issue with Infopath. My section lines and section text disappear in the form designer. The lines are initially there but then disappear after I click a few times and scroll. They still exist and can be clicked but I cannot seem them. I am not sure right now what exactly is causing them to disappear.
I am able to get them back again by switching views. This problem occurs both with infopath 2010, and 2007. It also happens to different forms. So it appears to be some sort of display issue. I have not noticed display issue's in any other programs.
I think the likely cause is because I recently formatted my computer, swapped graphics cards for the same model number but what looks like a newer revision because the fan failed on the last card. My specs may be relevant: I am using an AMD FirePro V4900, latest driver 13.352.1009 as of posting. 3 Monitor setup. Windows 7 x64.
Has anyone else run into this and found a fix?

Chart (or picture) does't appear in Crystal Report

I have been using visual studio 2013 along with crystal report service pack 9.
I also have created a window form to make a report with chart. The data works fine, but the chart or even picture doesn't appear in the report (only text data).
can anyone tell me where my problem is ?
Thanks in advance
I think you are trying to change different crystal report file , please make sure that you edit and run the same file

Split Compare Differences Window

I am using Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate on a Windows 8 platform. Before I commit code, I open Team Explorer > Pending Changes and then Compare with Latest Version each file. I use the Diff window to cleanup my own code and for code review with a colleague. It's really a wonderful feature.
I have multiple monitors and can't figure out how to split the Diff window. I can float the window and stretch it, but it gets clunky when I want to minimize only one half and I can't see some text near the margin between monitors.
Google helped me find a tool called WinMerge that allows for different (I won't say better) floating of the diff windows, but it's still contained in one clunky box that cannot be split.
Is there a way to "split float" the left and right halves of my diff Window to two different monitors but keep them line-number aligned?
Your issue is that Visual Studio does not have the functionality to allow two windows to scroll simultaneously. Your best course of action may be to try using a different text editor such as Vim to compare your code.

Using Cross tabs in Crystal Reports

I am trying to use Crystal Reports in generating my report for my ASP.NET website. Unfortunately, it appears like this. It appears properly when exported to other extensions. I have tried tinkering with every thing but it won't display as it is supposed to be. Can anyone settle this one? Thanks very much!!
