Export to bitmap?

Does the Grid offer anything similar to the Chart’s RenderToBitmap functionality? I want to be able to save a grid as a bitmap. I was thinking I might be able to create a chart and add my grid to it, but I was hoping there was an easier way.

You can use the Reporting feature of the grid, and use the Export method so you can save it to a bitmap.

e.g.:

Report report = new Report( gridControl1 );
report.Export( filename, format, overwrite, showProgressBar);

I’m using .NET 2.0 and just noticed the new Control.DrawToBitmap method. If I place my Grid control inside of a UserControl, will the Grid render correctly when I call DrawToBitmap? Or do I have to use the Reporting feature to render the Grid to a bitmap?

We haven’t experimented with this new method. You will have to experiment with it.
