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();
}
}
}
