The SaveToStream method saves the chart’s layout (the currently selected series views and its settings, etc.) to the specified stream. The saved settings can then be restored from storage using the ChartControl.LoadFromStream method.
For more information, refer to Storing the Chart Layout.
The following example demonstrates how to save a chart to a memory stream, and then restore it.
using System.IO;
// ...
Stream stream = new MemoryStream();
// ...
// Save the chart.
stream.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
chartControl1.SaveToStream(stream);
// Load the chart.
stream.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
chartControl1.LoadFromStream(stream);
Imports System.IO
' ...
Dim stream As System.IO.Stream
stream = New System.IO.MemoryStream()
' ...
' Save the chart.
stream.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin)
ChartControl1.SaveToStream(stream)
' Load the chart.
stream.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin)
ChartControl1.LoadFromStream(stream)
