Remarks

The ReportItem element itself is not used in an RDL report. Wherever a ReportItem element can occur, a specific type of report item is used. Types of report items are one of the following: Line, Rectangle, Image, Subreport, Textbox, Rectangle, CustomReportItem or a data region. A data region can be a Tablix or Chart.

Default values for the Top and Left are set to 0. The default value for Height is the height of the container minus Top. The default value for Width is the width of the container minus Left. Negative values for Width are only valid for Line.
