Description

How can I export the Stock Chart to a .png file without exporting the navigator to the image?

Solution

Right before the export begins, hide the navigator and make it visible again after the export completes.

To maintain the navigator settings after it was zoomed in or out:

1. Use the select method of the navigator to get the from and to values when the export starts.
2. Include the from and to values in the select property of the navigator by using the setOptions method.

<div id="example">
  <div class="box wide">
    <h4>Export Stock Chart</h4>
    <div class="box-col">
      <button class='export-image k-button'>Save as Image</button>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="demo-section k-content wide">
    <div id="stock-chart"></div>
  </div>
  <script>      
    $(".export-image").click(function() {
      var chart = $("#stock-chart").getKendoStockChart();          
      var navi = chart.navigator;
      var from = navi.select().from;
      var to = navi.select().to;

      chart.setOptions({ navigator: { visible: false, select: {from: from, to: to} } });
      setTimeout(function(){
        chart.exportImage().done(function(data) {
          kendo.saveAs({
            dataURI: data,
            fileName: "chart.png"
          });
        });
        chart.setOptions({ navigator: { visible: true, select: {from: from, to: to} } });
      }, 1000);
    });
    function createChart() {
      $("#stock-chart").kendoStockChart({
        pdf: {
          fileName: "Kendo UI Stock Chart Export.pdf",
