  1. Create a crystal report which contains multiple parameters(approximately more than 5).
  2. Save the report to localdisk, specifically in a folder which the RAS has access to.
  3. Create a web application, which uses RAS/Viewers java sdks to view a report.
  4. In the web.xml, disable the ajax calls(enabled by default) using the below parameters

    <context-param>

    <param-name>crystal_use_asynchronous_requests</param-name>

    <param-value>false</param-value>

    </context-param>

  5. View the crystal report through the application which uses the RAS SDKs to view the report in the crystal report viewer.

  6. Parameter dialog box appears without a scrollbar and all the parameters are not visible and cannot be filled.
