OS: Windows 7, R Version: 3.4.3, R Studio: 1.1.383
The code below produces a nice Gantt chart utilizing R's DiagrammeR package. I'm having issues exporting the output of this package. In R Studio I can click on Zoom and a nice full screen image of my Gantt chart appears. I then proceed to Export > Copy to Clipboard and when I paste I get this weird cropped version of the image pasting to my destination.
The weird thing about the crop is it's taking a partial screenshot of the actual image plus part of my R Studio session and adding the two together. It's like the coordinates are off. I also tried Export > Save as Image and the same issue occurs. Bug?? I output many graphics from ggplot2 in the same fashion and this never occurs.
My temporary solution is to use Window's snipping tool to take my own screenshots of the 'Zoom' but that's not preferable. DiagrammeR uses mermaid markdown, whatever that means, for what it's worth.

You can save the html widget as a html file first, then use webshot to save it down as png file.
htmlwidgets::saveWidget(m, file="m.html")
webshot::webshot("m.html", "m.png")
