[jCharts-users] Re: Creating java.awt.Image from jCharts

[Nathaniel G. A. <nat...@ya...>]

if you just want an Image, you can call: org.jCharts.encoders.BinaryEncoderUtil.render( Chart )
which returns a BufferedImage.

May I ask why you need access to the Image Object? If you are using Swing, take a look at the
Swing sample in the org.jCharts.test package as you will not need to create an Image instance; you
can set the Graphics Object from your Swing Component directly into jCharts.
