| Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ChartImageType | **Metafile** | A ChartImageType enumeration value, specifying how a chart is rendered in a report. |
Available values:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Metafile | The control is rendered as a metafile. In this case the quality of the rendered image is always good, but in some cases some details of the control may be lost. |
| Bitmap | The control is rendered as a bitmap. In this case the quality of the rendered image is sometimes poor, but it allows a control to be drawn more precisely. |
Remarks
Use the ImageType property to specify whether a chart should be internally rendered as a metafile or bitmap in a report.
- If this property is set to ChartImageType.Metafile (the default value), the quality of the rendered image is always good, but in particular cases some details of the control can be lost.
- If this property is set to ChartImageType.Bitmap, the quality of the rendered image is sometimes poor, but it allows a control to be drawn more precisely.
