Scheduled PDF of dashboard getting truncated

manwin
Path Finder

Background: - Scheduling dashboard with 3 panels to be sent out as a pdf report
Each panel is a table of events as these events can be quite big (limiting to 500 lines each)

Problem:
When the events exceed 38 lines it is being truncated at line 38 (which is 1 single page)
Initially I have the 3rd panel which has 500 lines of events and it was getting truncated off totally (0 events showing in the PDF report)

I worked around it and added in a 4th panel below and it started showing 38 lines (1 page) the rest of the 400+ lines are all getting truncated off.

Please help this is a huge problem for my customer as they need the scheduled PDF reports for their reporting purposes.

As of version 5.x, the default line limit (per panel) for PDF report is 1000 lines. We have modified a setting called max_rows_per_table to allow us to bypass this limit. We find that the setting works for MANUALLY triggered PDF reports but does not get applied for scheduled PDF reports.
