Text over image displaced when publsihed

I have a banner image on a report with three labels, some with params in them, on top of it. It all looks fine in design mode but when I save and view it the text is then displaced above and below the image. How do I stop it doing this?

Thanks.

Insert a Rectangle the same size as your banner image and set the BackgroundImage property value to your banner image. Add your text boxes over the top of your rectangle.

That worked for me!

  1. Insert a Rectangle the same size as your banner image and set the BackgroundImage property value to your banner image.
  2. Add your text boxes over the top of your rectangle.

SSRS doesn't support superimposing data onto an image very well.

I believe the only way to do this is to set the image as the BackgroundImage of a Report item that has this property, such as a text box. This limits how you can place things on the image, though.

I suppose you could do a 1990's style split of the image into many pieces and set those as different background images of textboxes arranged appropriately. Ugly, but I can't think of anything better.
