zedgraph wont display the bars when i save it as image

Question

I am trying to saveAs the zedgraph diagram that my program creates. The problem is that when i use that code it saves the image but only the labels on top of the bars appear...no bars are displayed.

 chart1.SaveAs();

Am i missing something?

The code that creates the diagram:

GraphPane myPane = chart1.GraphPane;
        myPane.XAxis.Scale.Format = "F0";
        //create the bars
        BarItem myCurve = myPane.AddBar("Width", pointPairListWidth, Color.Black);
        myCurve.Bar.Fill.Type = FillType.Solid;
        BarItem myCurve2 = myPane.AddBar("Height", pointPairListHeight, Color.Gray);
        BarItem.CreateBarLabels(myPane, false, "f0");
        chart1.AxisChange();
        chart1.Invalidate();
        chart1.Refresh();

ANSWER:

 chart1.GraphPane.GetImage().Save("pic.jpg");

please provide some more code. Hard to tell from this snippet. — sschrass, Feb 28 '13 at 23:20
was a long time ago since I've used zedGraph, but you are adding those bars to your myPane-object. So can you do myPane.SaveAs()? — sschrass, Mar 01 '13 at 19:28

you could try zedGraphControl.MasterPane.GetImage().Save("test.bmp")

It doesnt work. Moreover, when i minimize my program and maximize it it loses the bars too... – Silvia Stoyanova Feb 28 '13 at 23:09
