Get Image of front panel object

[kim!]

Hi!,

    I have been trying to capture a portion of the front panel using invoke node. I tried to follow what is mentioned in https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-3652 to  implement this. The problem I am having is that when I try to change the method of invoke node to Front Panel>>Get Image, I notice that I dont even have an option called Front Panel in my method's list. I noticed that the invoke node has a label -'strict' associted with it. How do I change it? 

Thanks

Your invoke node shows you the methods for the XYGraph class (and all the classes it inherits from). The example shows a method for the VI class. You can either open a reference to a VI, as shown in the example, or you can disconnect the reference from the node and right click it to navigate the hierarcy and select the VI class, which default to operating on the VI the node is in.

Also, the Control class (which XYGraph inherits from) should have its own Get Image method and I think graphs have specific methods for exporting images in scalable formats.

Thanks a lot!

just wanted to add an example of the mentioned Get Image Method of the XYGraph.
