Title: Generating PNG files?
Post by: hrk551 on 01 Aug 2013 07:55:46 AM
Hello,

How can I generate a PNG file of a chart and save ina specific drive,and this chart will be updated daily. We are implementing sharepoint and the sharepoint team want to show couple of charts which they read from a specific drive where we place these png files.
We are on C10.1.1

Thanks in advance.


Regards
Reddy

If you have an SDK license, you can use the mashup services to call the charts directly and save them as images.

We are not a big ompany, cannot have SDK license for 1 or 2 things. Any other alternative? :(

Based on your latest post, I think you're trying to do something similar to what I'm doing.

My idea is to use an iFrame against a saved MHT. So far from my tests it seems to work perfectly.
