Hide Dcoument Map by Default while viewing the Report in SSRS

Hello Experts

I use a Report where i have a document Map getting generated. but by default it is displayed and the user has to close the window to view the report. i wanted to know if its possible to hide the Document map window by default and based on the click of the icon the window will be show to the user when viewing in the default Report page.

Did you already try the URL access parameter: rc:DocMap=false ?

Hi Jens

Thanks for your suggestion. but i cannot expect my user to type rc:DocMap=false in the URL. as i deploy the report on the Report server and the user view the same through Report Manager.

since the Report has a document map, it covers 25 % of the main screen. so i wanted a way that by default it should be hidden and only on the click of the icon in the Toolbar it should be visible.

i appreciate if you can help me find the solution

I created a report with Document Map on (from Matrix Textbox Properties | Navigation tab) and the same report without Document Map. Saved both and searched for differences in the resulting rdl files. This helped me to find the problem in my original report. Removing the Label element in the Grouping part of the Matrix element removed also the Document Map icon from my reports.This is an extract of the changed rdl file.

Before:

<Grouping Name="PersonGroup">
<Label>=Fields!Person.Value</Label>
<GroupExpressions>
<GroupExpression>=Fields!Person.Value</GroupExpression>
</GroupExpressions>
</Grouping>

After:

<Grouping Name="PersonGroup">
<GroupExpressions>
<GroupExpression>=Fields!Person.Value</GroupExpression>
</GroupExpressions>
</Grouping>

This must be some bug wit the Layout-UI not synchronizing with the rdl file, because the Document Map label was definitily NOT set in the Navigation tab of the report that opened with Document Map default on.
