RE: JavaScript Hook for 'Save as Image'

Hi,

I finally figured out what the issue was with the charttoprint object does not support that method or property error in IE that I was receiving. I figured it out that I have to call registerWithJS on the FlashVars param in order for IE to to acknowledge the OBJECT's id as in:

so.addParam("FlashVars","&dataURL=cache/myfile.xml&registerWithJS=1");

Once I provided that, it worked fine. I was relying on the "1" flag on the new instantiation function but it ignores that in IE. Here's what I ended up using that works:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function saveChart(chartID){
var chartToPrint = getChartFromId(chartID);
chartToPrint.saveAsImage();
}
</SCRIPT>

<a href="" onClick="saveChart('chart1Id');">Save Chart</a>

I hop this helps someone out there ;).

hi,

Though I am writing this long after v3.0.6 launch, since then FusionCharts supports Image saving API call using JavaScript. For this you need to set register with JS option on. That will not give the error that you are mentioning. Please refer to our online documentaion's page - http://www.fusioncharts.com/docs/Contents/JS_saveAsImage.html for more on this.

hi,

We are afraid, FusionCharts does not, as yet, expose the JS API to hook image saving function. But we are working on this.

JavaScript Hook for 'Save as Image'

Does a JavaScript hook/function exist for the "Save As Image" menu item to make that publicly available (via actionscript) to the JavaScript API?

We want to create a button on the page so that users can download their chart as a JPEG without having to right-click on the chart itself. Otherwise they may never know that the option to download exists.
