Hi,

Is is possible that the AB OLE Automation Object Model call 
ExportImage() is broken in AB 5.30.4?

Despite everything I could think of to try, the images always come out 
blank, like those attached.

Neither of the codes below work, and yet each was said to work on the 
list in the past.

Operational attempts have included:

AB Open        Dbl-Click on script
AB Open        Run script from command window

AB Closed        Dbl-Click on script
AB Closed        Run script from command window

Results are always either:   server error, AB crash, or it runs and 
produces the blank chart.

When AB is open, it doesn't matter what layout/chart is up.   Still no joy.

What could be (not) happening here???

//    ImageTest_01.js
AB = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");
AB.ActiveWindow.ExportImage( "test.gif", 640, 480 );


//    ImageTest_02.js

iWatchList = 8;     ///    you can define watch list number here

AB = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");
Qty = AB.Stocks.Count;   for( i = 0; i < Qty; i++ )
{
      Stk = AB.Stocks( i );
      if( iWatchList < 32 )
      {
        if( Stk.WatchListBits & ( 1 << iWatchList ) )
        {
         Doc = AB.Documents.Open( Stk.Ticker );
         WScript.Sleep( 4000 ); // 4 seconds delay
          AB.ActiveWindow.ExportImage(Stk.Ticker + ".png")
         Doc.Close();
        }
      }
      else
      {
        if( Stk.WatchListBits2 & ( 1 << ( iWatchList - 32 )) )
        {
         Doc = AB.Documents.Open( Stk.Ticker );
         AB.ActiveWindow.ExportImage(Stk.Ticker + ".png")
         WScript.Sleep( 4000 ); // 4 seconds delay
         Doc.Close();
        }
      }
}
