Saving or Printing a Business Graph

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am very new to Business Graphs. I have an requirement of saving/printing a business graph which is plot from some int. table data.

Is that possible to save/ print a graph from application?

Is it possible to copy a graph and save it on our Desktop?

Please reply asap.

Thanks,

The functionality to pass back a binary string with the Business Graphic into the WD Context has been developed for NetWeaver 7.02 - which will be in ramp-up later this year.

Hi Guys

Not sure on this, just went thru the BW_IGS_CHART_TEST report program. Place in the reports source code, where you display the IGS graph in html control, we actually right HTML Source. You can extend that part to include JavaScipt and also create a PRINT button. Onclick action of this HTML Button can invoke the Browser print.

Check how to do in java script

Thanks Prashant.

But We cant use javascripts and all in Webdynpro ABAP.

Can you suggest any other way?

Using some class nd methods for business graphics?

Thanks,

Hi,

You could directly use class cl_igs_chart_engine and use its output (i.e. the image) further in your application.

Just have a look at [this blog|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/13313] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken];. It is about using the chart engine in SAPGUI with cl_gui_chart_engine but the XML interface is the same as with cl_igs_chart_engine.

Hi Runal,

Can you try a right click on your graph and see if you get any option to copy or save it.

Thanks Abhinav.

But right click doesnt work, since its a webdynpro ABAP application. It gives some settings option, to hide a graph and extra.

But there is no such option on right click.

Do webdynpro abap support this functionality, to save or export graphs?

Thanks,

Runal
