Save a Uitable with coloured cells as as png.

Hi, i've created a Uitable object and colured its cells with this code:

 app.UITable.Data=CreateUITable(app, app.deltas_table, app.deltas_threshold);
            
            %% GUI TABLE COLOURING (ANALYSIS MODULE)
            
            
            % Hightlight over-threshold values in red
            
            [redRows, redCols]= find( abs(app.UITable.Data{:,2}) >= app.deltas_threshold);
            z = uistyle('BackgroundColor',[1 0.6 0.6]);
            addStyle(app.UITable, z ,'cell',[redRows, redCols]);
            addStyle(app.UITable, z ,'cell',[redRows, redCols+1]);
            addStyle(app.UITable, z ,'cell',[redRows, redCols+2]);
            addStyle(app.UITable, z ,'cell',[redRows, redCols+3]);
            
            
            % Hightlight under-threshold values in green
            
            [greenRows, greenCols]= find( abs(app.UITable.Data{:,2}) <= app.deltas_threshold);
            n = uistyle('BackgroundColor',[0.6 1  0.6]);
            addStyle(app.UITable, n ,'cell', [greenRows, greenCols]);
            addStyle(app.UITable, n ,'cell',[greenRows, greenCols+1]);
            addStyle(app.UITable, n ,'cell',[greenRows, greenCols+2]);
            addStyle(app.UITable, n ,'cell',[greenRows, greenCols+3]);
            
            % Hightlight NaN values in gray
            
            NaNidxs = ismissing(app.UITable.Data);
            [NaNrow,NaNcol] = find(NaNidxs);
            s = uistyle('BackgroundColor',1/255*[200,200,200]);
            addStyle(app.UITable,s,'cell',[NaNrow, NaNcol]);
            addStyle(app.UITable,s,'cell',[NaNrow, NaNcol+1]);
            addStyle(app.UITable,s,'cell',[NaNrow, NaNcol+2]);
            addStyle(app.UITable,s,'cell',[NaNrow, NaNcol+3]);
            

Now i want to save the table on a .png (or pdf) file.

Any help would be really appreciated.

One solution is to put the uitable within a uipanel and then use exportgraphics to export the table.

If you want to export the entire figure you don't need to embed the table within a panel.
