Richard's advice is very good.
You might also try this.
on mouseup
lock screen
go to card "graph"
import snapshot from rect (rect of grp id 126899) of window the
windowid of this stack to myImage as PNG
put myImage into image id 1033 of card "page1" of stack "report"
go back
unlock screen
-- anything else
end mouseup
This bypasses the issue Richard mentioned and simply does a screen capture of
the pixels in the area occupied by the group.

P.S. You may find it necessary to adjust the width and height of img id 1033
after putting myImage into it.
set the width of img image id 1033 of card "page1" to the width of grp
id 126899
set the height of img image id 1033 of card "page1" to the height of
grp id 126899
