Get Panel Image

[tonh]

Hi everyone, I've seen many topics about this on the forum but I'm still running in circles trying to figure out how to save the current front panel i'm in into an image file.
I know there is the front panel get image method, but I dont understand a slang of it! Could someone take me by the hand and show me how to get an image of a VI I'm running.
(In fact, I want to add a "print" button on the Vi front panel and print the whole VI front panel under a certain name... pretty much as taking a sreenshot and pasting it to paint :P)

Thank you

The help for that method says "Returns an image of the front panel as a flattened pixmap". Seems pretty straightforward. To save it to a file, just wire the image data directly to one of the graphics format file write functions:
