Matrix Width

Is there a way to ensure a matrix layout does not expand horizontally
past a certain point (i.e. page)? There appears to be an option to try
and fit the matrix on one page but that doesn't stop it going over
multiple pages in the horizontal direction.

Outside of the option you mentioned, as far as I know, there is
nothing else available. Sorry I could not be of further assistance.

It will cut off additional data, but you could filter the outermost
column group on {group expression} by "Top N" ={max columns}, i.e for
at most 5 columns grouped on myID you would have a group filter for
myID by 'Top N' with value of '=5'.

Matrix inserting spacing in my report

The matrix in my report expands left to right and displaces the other
tables/charts in my report. I've left enough room for it to expand. Is
there a way to tell it not to push the other stuff?Try to move the items above the matrix (which get pushed to the right) into
one containing rectangle. The top/left of the rectangle has to be closer to
left page border than the matrix top/left position. Does it work then for
you?
