Configuring Report Drilldowns

[tim_treacy]

Why?

Do you get the same behavior from other browsers also?

Yes.

The initial screenshot was Chrome.

Firefox

Safari

And it doesn't matter how wide your screen or resolution is:

When you view a list report normally, .chart-container-wrap #report-container-builder is overridden by .chart-container-wrap.full-width #report-container-builder, which extends the width of the div holding the report. (This is part of the Report Designer CSS includes.) This also happens when you edit a list report drilldown.

When you click into a drilldown in Report Designer, .full-width CSS does not get applied, and so the list report remains the same size as the parent report (small). I can replicate it on my own instance. So that's the "why" from a system perspective, anyway...

As to the "why did someone decide this"... maybe it's meant to indicate that, if you add the report to a dashboard, the drilled list will remain the same size as the original report? Just theorizing.

Kinda.

It does seem that it's limited to a "default" size, but it isn't the default size of the parent chart/report, because if you change that through the 'Custom Chart Size' option in the report config....the drilldown won't follow it (you can see that in the screenshots of my reply above).

Someone on my team managed to dig up a Known Error article on it (KB0789855), so they're aware, but have no intention to address it.
