Description

The image I exported gw chart 913200

Ths is how it looked in my explorer screenshot-20230414-231145

Noticed the background is transparent but image explorers usually make a white background, so that the text contents are hard to recognize. I wonder if there will be an option to control the background, or just to capture the appearance in my browser. thx.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the image export code in graphic walker and identify where the background is set. Consider adding an option to include a solid background color in the export, or to render the chart with the current browser theme.
