The Silverlight Report Is Messed Up or Different from Design-Time Preview

Environment

Product	Progress® Telerik® Reporting
Version	Q2 2012 and later
Report Viewers	Silverlight

Description

The report in the Silverlight ReportViewer is messed up or different from the design-time preview.

Cause

The Silverlight ReportViewer displays the rendered report in XAML format, so external styles may affect the produced XAML that contains standard elements like Canvas, TextBlock, and more.

Solution

Try to exclude styles to check if they change the displayed content or try to export in a format like PDF.
