Export charts in background

[Fabian Eriksson]

Hi there,

Is it possible to save a chart as image in the background? I Need to create several charts in the background without the user seeing them and save them later as images.

No images get created when i try:

var chart = new SfChart();

// .....

chart.SaveAsImage("PowderChart_Days.jpg");

Will the charts only be drawn, when I add them to a View?

Thanks for an answer.

Greetings

Fabian

Hi Fabian,

You can save the Chart without adding it to UI tree by getting the stream of the Chart. Please download the sample from the following location.

Please let us know, if you need any further assistance.
