Any plotting tool (i.e. graph frames, graphs and xy plots) may be copied to the Windows clipboard for inclusion in reports or other documents. Options are provided to store the objects as either a picture in bitmap format (*.bmp), or Windows meta-file format (*.wmf). Note that meta-file format is limited to the current screen size. Use bitmaps for larger graphs.
You can change the panel style of all graph frames, xy plots and control panels in the Application Options dialog, before including them in reports. See Design Environment for more details.
Right-click over the plotting or control object and select Copy <object> as Meta-File or Copy <object> as Bitmap from the pop-up menu. Depending on the object selected, the <object> part of the command will be replaced by the object type.
You may then go directly to a report document and paste the image, while it is still in the Windows clipboard.
