J-,
If you're using LV7 or higher, there is a new VI called "Picture to
Pixmap.vi".  It can be found under Graphics & Sound >> Picture
Functions.

I've used it and it works quite well.

Subject: picture to png

Is there no way to get the contents of a picture and save it to an image
file? I know about using an Invoke Node and the Get Image method, but
that's not what I'm after. It's easy enough to draw stuff outside the
visible area of a picture control and Get Image won't capture that. I've
got limited screen space to display the image I'm building but I'd like
to save all the data to an image file for the end user to do with as
they please.

I could just make a sub-VI with a humongous picture control and save the
image, but that lacks elegance.

Has anyone found a better way?

Thanks,
Jason
