S SFE Member Licensed User Apr 28, 2023 #1 I am creating a report from my app. All the data is being inserted into a PDF. There may be a easy way to do it but how do you get an xChart into a pdf? I tried Drawview but that was a no go crashes the code probably because of a type mismatch. There may a fairly straightforward way to do it but being a newbie I am not seeing it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

S SFE Member Licensed User Apr 29, 2023 #5 Thanks Klaus. Being new to B4X I didn't know about SnapShot. I had found a solution but Snapshot is clear and concise. In addition I wanted to tell you thank you for the exceptionally well done charts. They are well thought out and the visual aspect of the chart is outstanding. Upvote 0
