You could use class CL_IGS_CHART_ENGINE directly (instead of the UI element) and let the IGS create the image as an e.g. JPG.

Hi Prasath,

as this class is totally independent from Web Dynpro it belongs to you where to use it in your application. Create an instance of this class, provide data and customizing and let the IGS render the chart. Finally you ask the instance for the image and e.g. save it.

A good starting point is the SAP Chart Designer that you can download from the SDN downloads page. As part of the package you will find documenation about the data XML. Create the customizing XML by interactively designing your chart and save the settings as XML.
