Exporting legend and annotations

[Maurizio Taddei]

Hi,

I've followed the documentation's example for exporting/saving a chart to an image, however, I noticed that the legend and some annotations have not been rendered (both snap-shots of WPF and exported image are attached). Is there any way around this? Both elements are really important for my application.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Maurizio

Hi Santhiya,

Please find attached my sample solution. As you can see, when you save/export the chart, the legend and the text annotations to the right are cropped out or partially cropped out.

Hi,

I've just noticed that the chart image,which is exported, is cropped differently based on the window size (i.e. if I resize the window). Could the problem have something to do with the container?

Hi,

I've finally narrowed down the cause: the issue only occurs when I set the Width and Height of the chart. When the latter are not set, then the image is fine.

I suppose I could set the width and height of the Grid cell instead.

Hi Maurizio, 

  

Thanks for your update. 

  

Since SfChart exporting is implemented by using RenderTargetBitmap. This will render the visual object based on coordinate of its parent object. To avoid the cropping of image while setting the Height and Width for chart, we need to place the chart in an additional layer such as Grid and we need to set the Height and Width property for that container (Grid) instead of chart. 

  

We have modified the provided sample based on your requirement and it can be downloaded from below link,
