Downloading Visuals as PNG Files

Arcadia Enterprise enables you to save a screenshot of a visual as a .png file. This method is better than using a desktop tool because it handles apps that are very long or very wide, and don't fit on the screen.

Availability Notes:
  • This feature must be enabled in the Settings > General menu of the visual, by a user with appropriate access. See Enabling Image or PDF Download.
  • This feature is available only when thumbnails are enabled. See Enabling Snapshots and Thumbnails.
  • For snapshots of custom JS visuals, we support only ECMA Script 5 for Javascript.
  • Arcadia Enterprise does not support PNG download on the Windows platform.

The following steps demonstrate how to save the a visual as a *.png file.

  1. In Visual Designer, click the (ellipsis) icon at the top of the interface.
  2. Click Download as..., and select Image (png) from the secondary menu.

    Download as png
  3. A Generating screenshot message appears.

    The image is saved to a *.png file that has the same name as the visualization.
