Is it possible to create Custom (own) controls for the SQL Server Mobile Report publisher? Meaning own graphes (Gauges
), styles, maps, etc...
I was unable to find any information about this topic on Google (or other sites like SO). Few days back we had lectures/training with some developer (basics of Reporting) and he shortly said that it is possible, but we haven't got time to go through it.
My expectations (as an answer) is explanation what tool can be used and/or link to tutorial.
Possibly also some information (with source) that this cannot be created in version 2016.
Short story: It is not possible to create custom control in Mobile Reports Publisher as of now (March 2017). There is no support in the software itself. However Microsoft will allow store/use Power BI reports within Reporting services.
Long story: I've reached out the tutorial guru and discussed this further. We've found that the original statement is not true and mobile reports cannot be adjusted in a way of creating new control or modifying style sheet.
But: Since Mobile reports are sort of family with product called Power BI, Microsoft has decided (as described in MS Technical preview - January 2017) to support Power BI Reports on next version MS Reporting Services. And as there can be done some visualisation changes and even create new controls, most likely we will be also able to create our own control.
