sql server reporting services : Image and Table Layout

In the Layout tab, I've placed a jpg image behind a table. In other words,
the table lays on top of the image. In the Preview tab, I can see the image
behind the table, which is exactly what I want.

When I build and deploy, then look at the report in IE, I see the image with
the table pushed down the page. The overlap between the table and image is
gone, even though it's still overlayed in the preview tab. Any ideas on what
to set so that the table stays overlayed on top of the image when I looking
at the deployed report?

Thanks,

Try inserting a rectangle object on to your report, making your jpg the
background image for this rectangle and then place your table in the
rectangle.

Thanks for Magendo's input.

Hi Randy,

As Magendo has mentioned, you can drag a Rectangle on the report first, set
the rectangle's backgroundImage as the image you want to display as
background. Then put your Table over that rectangle. BTW, the Table
reportItem itself also support backgrounimage setting and it can display
the image behind the table content (when we set backgroundcolor as
Transparent--- the default setting). Does this also a possible solution for
your scenario?

Please feel free to post here if there is any further questions.

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng
