Remarks

The value for the Width element must be a valid Size. For more information, see Report Definition Language Data Types.

The maximum value for Width is 160 in. The minimum value is 0 in.

Only lines can have a negative width. Height combined with width determines the endpoint of the line.

If the Width element is omitted, the default is the value of Width for the containing item minus the value of the sibling Left element, except for a tablix data region. For a tablix, the default is derived from the sum of the widths of the columns, rows, and cells.

Setting a report item width element to 0 does not hide the report item when rendered. To hide a report item, set the visibility property Hidden Element (RDL) to true.
