Renaming Generated Image File Name


User (Legacy)

Recommended Posts

We do not expose a property to manipulate the image file, the only way to

get what you need to would be to

- Invoke GetHtmlTag and save it in a string variable

- "parse" the IMG tag to get the file name. This should be easy since the

generated img tag is very simple.

- Rename the file, knowing where these files are generated

- Recreate the IMG tag to point to the new file name

- Return this IMG tag to the HTML page

Also note that if you are doing this for security reasons, you may want to

check our bitstream generation. This is more secure since no files are

generated.

Hi

Thanks for your reply. I fully understand that bitstream generation is able

to fulfill my requirement. However, through this method, the drill-down

capabilities has to be sacrificed.

Thanks and Regards,

Dillon

Also note that the GetHtmlDataEx returns both the image and image map. You

could generate a temporary file that includes session info in the name and

return the img tag along with the map generated by ChartFX.
