title: SSRS Browser Not Rendering The Same As SSDT
body: <p>I have a very strange thing happening and I don't know how to resolve so looking to the experts to point me in the right direction please.</p>
  <p>I am building a SSRS report to match our clients existing report (built using Crystal Reports). I have been given exact criteria to match such as font size, font, etc and sizes of the various controls. In one part of the report, I have 3 pie charts (uurgh!) next to each other. Each has a custom legend to display the series values and the percentage. Depending on the option at runtime, these legends can contain 9 or 10 items. I understand there is little that can be done in determining how many legend entries appear in each &quot;column&quot; of the wide table, if used, but what I am experiencing is doing my head in.</p>
  <p>Below is what the pies currently render as in SSDT (VS 15.9.16)

  <p>When I deploy to SSRS and view the report, using exactly the same data source and parameters, I get the following.

  <p>You can see in the middle pie, its switched to a column even though the legend is set to wide table and is missing entries. The third pie is a wide table but has dropped Financials off the bottom of the legend.</p>
  <p>And why, just out of interest, does the browser version show a space between the number and % sign but the SSDT version doesn't?</p>
  <p>This is very frustrating as I expect the browser to return the same as VS. I've tried Edge, Chrome and IE, same every time. I have tried using Auto Table and Wide Table on the legend, makes no difference.</p>
  <p>Any suggestions for ensuring the browser renders the report exactly the same as the dev environment would be hugely appreciated.</p>
