Workaround(s)

view

I work at Microsoft as a report developer and I really can't believe that Report Builder does not have the ability to set the zoom default to page width or some other value.

I create reports that get put up on 100" screens, on 52" LCD screens, on monitors, on laptops, even phones...you would think that I could just change the default from 100% to "Page Width" or at least pass the parameter through a url that I provide to my stakeholders!
I really can't believe that there is not a way to do this!

Reporting Services

Make an option on the report properties to set the zoom to any of the dropdown values so that when a report launches it can be the size that is best for the developer. In my case I need the report to fit the screen of the user (which is always different).

Improved User Interface

This will save a lot of development time trying to figure out what the best size will be to make the least amount of people pissed off that they have to use scroll bars or change the zoom.
