Hi,

I used ggplotly to generate an interactive graph and would like to save it into an interactive PNG, JPEG, TIFF or PDF. Does anyone have similar experience?

Thanks.

Hi there,  
PNG, JPEG, TIFF and PDF are all static files, they will not be saved with the interactivity.  
You could export your graph as an HTML file if you wish to keep the interactive elements.
