Mourbare,

Thanks for the solution. I would note that MVC is not required for this to work. One final addition:

Chart.DeploymentScenario.ImageUrl = ResolveUrl("~/blabla/ChartImages/Chart_#SEQNUM(100).png");

I think this resolves the problem.

the issue with the tilde character (~) in the ImageURL was logged as bug # 20022 and fixed on 7/27.  it will be resolved in an upcoming service release.

I tried both "~/ChartImages" and "../../../ChartImages" and it doesn't work. It does find the right directory and saves the file there but then renders the <img> tag with the "src" attribute pointing elsewhere. How do i resolve that?

PS. Until there is an answer, if anybody else has this problem, you can override RenderChildren() in your container (Page or UserControl) like this:

    protected override void RenderChildren(HtmlTextWriter writer)
    {
        StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
        HtmlTextWriter hw = new HtmlTextWriter(sw);

        base.RenderChildren(hw);

        writer.Write(sw.ToString().Replace("src=\"ChartImages", string.Format("src=\"{0}", ResolveUrl("~/ChartImages"))));
    }

PPS. The above doesn't work with partial postbacks. Besides, string.Replace is slow. A better solution is to change the "src" attribute by locating the <img> tag using Javascript. Implementation of that differs depending on the framework that's in use.

Hi Greg,

I was having the same issue. The way I got it working was to use the design view of the ASPX page that the UltraWebChart was on and configure the DeploymentScenario in the Properties window. It was fairly straight-forward. The only real issue I had was using "~/" for "go up one directory" didn't work, so I used "../" instead. Here is what it looked like in code:

            <DeploymentScenario FilePath="../images/temp/chart"
                    ImageURL="../images/temp/chart/Chart_#SEQNUM(100).png" />

Hope that helps.
