<Chart>.SaveEMF (Function)

In french: <Graphe>.SauveEMF

Saves a chart that was drawn beforehand in a file in EMF format.

Example

// Saves the chart named "CHART_MyChart" in the "C:\Charts\Chart.EMF" file
CHART_MyChart.SaveEMF("C:\Charts\Chart.EMF")

Syntax

<Result> = <Chart control>.SaveEMF(<EMF file name>)

<Result>: Boolean

True if the chart was saved,
False otherwise.

<Chart control>: Control name

Name of the Chart control in the window editor, page editor or report editor.

<EMF file name>: Character string (with quotes)

Name and full path of the EMF file to create. The file extension is mandatory. This EMF file is created when <Chart>.SaveEMF is called. The file is overwritten and re-created if it already existed.

Remarks

Saving a chart

To save a chart, the chart must have been drawn beforehand (<Chart>.Draw). The modifications performed since the last call to <Chart>.Draw will be ignored.
The default size of the image is set to 639 x 479. These dimensions are taken into account if the chart was never drawn or if it is not visible.

Backup in EMF format

This file can be read by a tool that recognizes the EMF format.
The size of the file is identical to the size of the destination (size of window size, control or file).
We recommend that you preview the chart before it is saved in a file.

Differences between grDestinationEMF and <Chart>.SaveEMF

grDestinationEMF is used to define the destination for the next drawing of the chart. When using <Chart>.Draw, the chart will be drawn in the specified file and all the modifications performed since the last chart drawing will be taken into account.
<Chart>.SaveEMF is used to save the chart in a file in EMF format. The image saved corresponds to the chart during the last call to <Chart>.Draw. The modifications performed on the chart since the last call to <Chart>.Draw will be ignored.
