How to store a plot into a BMP file using GetCtrlDisplayBitmap? Or anything else....

[Graziano]

I'd like to store plots in a file .bmp, is it possible using GetCtrlDisplayBitmap()?

thanks!

Yes, just use GetCtrlDisplayBitmap to get the bitmap, then use SaveBitmapToFile in the Programmer's Toolkbox. (SaveBitmapToBMPFile and SaveBitmapToJPEGFile are also now available in the User Interface library in the latest version, CVI 7.1).
