FlowChart saveTo doesn't save assigned images (Read 4710 times)

	When I use a Box.setImage() method, the image is loaded and displayed in the box fine. However, when I save and exit (using FlowChart.saveTo), and load it back again the image has disappeared and left a blank box. Any ideas why this is happening? Is there something I have to do to save the image link? As I said in the other thread, I am using version 1. Thanks

	In version 1 you can enable saving images through the FlowChart.getSerializationOptions() object. It should have a setEnableImages(bool) or setImages(bool) method that does that.

	Thanks for the quick reply. The only set methods I could find in getSerializationOptions() are get/set methods of: backgroundImage behavior appearance grid defaultItemAttributes Of which I have tried setting them all to true, but the problem remains. There is a function in the FlowChart.PrintOptions called setEnableImages(bool), but it doesn't seem to have any affect when I am saving and loading the flowchart and only seem to refer to printing.

	In fact, box images should be saved unconditionally if you are using binary format. Please email the saved flowchart to support@mindfusion.eu and our developer will check what happens. Stoyan

	The toolkit.getImage() method you are using to load images loads them in a very old format (from the Java 1.x days), and it might not be compatible with ImageIO.write() which JDiagram uses to save image data. Could you check how it works if you use the ImageIO.read() method?

	Took your advice and did the following: Image image = ImageIO.read(new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(sFullPath))); instead of: Image image = toolkit.getImage(sFullPath); and its working now Thanks, and have a nice Christmas.
