How do I export a chart in an image format from LibreOffice Calc?

I'm not completely sure I follow the question, so my answer is three-fold, and will hopefully hit the mark:

• to print a chart 'as is' in libreoffice, simply select it by clicking on it, and go 'file > print' but choose "selected cells" in the 'range and copies' section.

• it appears that you can't 'export' the chart directly as an image from calc, but you can paste it into libreoffice draw, and then save it as an image.

• or you can just fall back on taking a screen shot, and printing it from gimp, or shotwell, etc.

I was able to export a chart with these steps:

1. Select the chart (so it has a box with green squares around it)
2. Click File → Export
3. Click Save
4. In the General tab under Range select Selection
5. Click Export

I was able to export a chart with these steps:

1. copy the chart and paste it into Draw,
2. select the chart (so it has a box around it)

3. click File -> Export..., choose a file format (e.g., JPG)

   and here's the important part:

4. check the box marked "Selection".

   That will save just the chart you selected, not the chart plus the blank page it's sitting on. Then hit "Save" and voila, you have exported the chart.
