I'm trying the new JupyterLab and am having trouble saving figures. Using vanilla Jupyter notebooks, I can two-fingers click (using macOS, Safari or Chrome) and I get a browser menu that allows me to copy or save the figure.

In JupyterLab, this menu is replaced by notebook specific one with cell-related functions, as seen here:

Is there a way I can save a figure directly from the notebook in JupyterLab?

  • Please open an issue on the JupyterLab tracker. JupyterLab is not yet in Beta, so interface and functionality are still changing. – Matt Sep 24 '17 at 23:45

Following the suggestion from @Matt, I opened an issue in GitHub and got the answer: the old menu is available by holding down Shift while doing a two-fingers click on a Mac, or doing a Shift + right-click on Linux/windows

Shift + Right click works well (as foglerit mentioned).

Another alternative is to right on the output of a cell and select Create New View for Output. This will allow you to interact with all figures from an output as if they were just images.
