Default PDF export in IR doesn't include more added number of columns - oracle-apex

Default PDF export in IR doesn't include more added number of columns. Some times with more data PDF itself is doenloading as 1kb and not showing any data on screen.
I have almost 15 columns in my report which is getting cut from right side of report if we include all column names.
Is there any workaround to get this resolved within APEX?

The PDF page width is too small to render all columns. PDF always has a fixed width & height per page. There are two solutions I can think of:
You can customize the PDF page width and height using the print attributes of the Interactive Report.
You could also consider using a smaller font size.

Data studio - cannot add more than 10 dimensions to a blended data source

I am trying to make a blended data source from 2 bigquery tables. The problem I am seeing is that I am not able to add more than 10 fields as dimensions in each table for the join.
As you can see in the image below, the Add dimension option is not available for the first table. If I remove one of these dimensions, I get the Add dimension option back.
Is there a limitation on the number of dimensions that can be added to the tables of a blended data source?
A solution (that i really don't like but works) is to add all the dimensions to the report attached to the datasource and not to the blend and then pressing "blend data" in the right panel. After this, in the bind creation view will appear the datasource that was attached before with all the dimensions that you added (it can be more than 10), but you will not be able to add more if the quantity of dimensions is greater than 10
The solution I found to this was to Add the same table again to the blended data source and add the remaining fields as dimensions. In my case, it was purchases joined with purchases.
I am not sure, if this is the right approach. I just want to know if this is a limitation from data studio?
Google Studio does have limitations as stated in Docs here
Limits of tables
The number of dimensions and metrics you can add depends on the data
source used by that table:
Tables based on "fixed schema" data sources, such as Google
Analytics, Google Ads, Display & Video 360, and other Google
marketing products data sources can have up to 10 dimensions and 20
metrics.
Tables based on "flexible schema" data sources, such as Google
Sheets, BigQuery, and SQL databases can have up to 100 dimensions
and 100 metrics.

Is there a way to format a paginated report page size based on column visibility?

I am currently building a paginated report that includes 3 columns that are not necessary for all of the parameters. I have set up the visibility of those columns to only appear when the appropriate parameter is selected. My issue is that when a parameter that does not need those columns is selected the page has an abundance of white space. Is there a way to format the page in a way that shrinks it to fit? Thanks.

PowerBI Embedded - Formatting disappears on render

I have a PowerBI report built in PowerBI desktop and displaying in a .net app using javascript. We have basic cards with decimal values formatted as currencies or percentages (in the formatting ribbon in PowerBI desktop). When the embedded report first displays in the web app, the formatting symbols ($, %) show for a split second and then disappear. I've removed layout and any extra style sheets and javascripts from the page, but still get the behavior. Have also set the localSettings in the JS config. Any ideas?
It's not a great solution, but a potential workaround would be to format the values using the FORMAT function which changes them to be text strings in the format you define rather than numeric values that get formatted however it decides.
For example, if you have a [measure] you can define another one like this:
measure_formatted = FORMAT ( [measure], "$ #,0.00")

How to add a text to tool-tips

I have two columns (EBELN - Data Type is Text), (MATKL - Data Type is Text). I want to add them to tool-tips but it is shown as count.
How can I show it as text?
The trick to remember here is that your chart is aggregating data. In other words, for a single date (BEDAT), there may be many MENGE values that are either being summed or averaged or counted.
To create a text tooltip, you can't drag in a text column because, while 3 MENGE values can be easily summed, 3 corresponding tooltip values can't be summed.
What you need to do is create a measure that calculates the text based on the aggregated MENGE values. For example:
Text Tooltip = IF(SUM(Sheet1[MENGE])>100,"This is excellent","This is terrible")
You can then drag that text measure into the tooltip field (because you've said exactly what you want the text to be regardless of whether you've got one MENGE value, or 3, or 300 for a single BEDAT).
There's more information and code samples in the Power BI forums, for example here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/How-can-I-make-Tool-tips-display-text-instead-of-count/td-p/44582
Dustin Ryan also has a good blog post on this here: https://sqldusty.com/2016/06/29/5-more-power-bi-tips/

Excel columns made up of different merged cells

I'm trying to tidy up a sheet with the following problem, and would appreciate any advice.
My sheet has 7 "master columns" and about 4000 rows. It was compiled by converting a load of PDF documents.
The master columns are made up of merged minor columns, but at various parts of the data, the minor columns that make up each master column are different.
eg The first master column is made up of merged columns A-H for the first 30 rows, but for the next 25 rows it's made up of merged columns A-G etc.
As I said, overall there are still the same 7 master columns from top to bottom, but the merging is different throughout...
Can anyone think of a way to fix this without doing it all manually?
Copy your horrible spreadsheet into Word with Home > Clipboard – Paste, Paste Special, Unformatted Text and replace ^t^t with ^t. Replace All repeatedly, until Word has completed its search of the document and has made 0 replacements. Copy back in to Excel.
This is not tested on your image so there might be some issues – perhaps column misalignments (where even Word’s limited regex may help to add back tabs where suitable). The result should be no merged cells – mind you someone on SE described these along the lines of “A creation of the Devil to test us beyond endurance” (ie best avoided).
Try selecting the full document and click unmerge button from the ribbon.
As per the screen shot you provided, you can select all and unmerge but getting the corresponding fields in order might be challenging.
Try using macros to set combined functionalities in a single or combine key presses
