Is there a way to save the chart as an image?

You're unbelievably amazing

I'll look into it and provide a function to get an image from a chart. Will close this as soon as it's done.

Its a table under the hood (unlike the usual google charts) so the chart object does not provide a getImageURI function - need to use html2canvas probably, trying that out now

[LazeBear]

you can have a look of this

Was there any progress in this improvement?

Charts has a method for this: https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/printing
Can we utilize this in any way?

This would be great to have :)

So I was looking into it a bit more and it's actually described on the homepage of this repository:

html:

<google-chart #chart [data]="myData" etc. ></google-chart>

component variable definition:

@ViewChild('chart') chart: GoogleChartComponent;

component function:

const wrapper = this.chart.wrapper as any;

wrapper.visualization.getImageURI();

That's it.

Great! Havent looked in this thread in ages but then I assume @FERNman made the function but forgot to close the issue - will close it now
