Hi I have a vba code which export image from excel to desktop. i am using chart object to save on desktop. however when it saves then image height and width set as per chart area.
is there any way to increase the Chartplot area.

VBA Code:
Sub Export()
     Dim MyChart As String, MyPicture As String
     Dim PicWidth As Long, PicHeight As Long
     Dim shp As Shape
     Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = ActiveSheet
For Each shp In ws.Shapes
    If shp.Type = msoPicture Then
        '        MsgBox shp.Name & " is a picture"
    shp.Select
    End If
Next shp
  '   On Error GoTo Finish
     MyPicture = Selection.Name
     With Selection
           PicHeight = .ShapeRange.Height
           PicWidth = .ShapeRange.Width
     End With
     Charts.Add
'ActiveChart.HeightPercent = 100
'Legend.includeLayout = True
 ActiveChart.Legend.IncludeInLayout = True
 ActiveChart.Legend.Position = xlLegendPositionRight
     ActiveChart.Location Where:=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Sheet1"
     Selection.Border.LineStyle = xlContinuous
     MyChart = Selection.Name & " " & Split(ActiveChart.Name, " ")(2)
    strpath = Environ("USERPROFILE") & "\Desktop\"
     With ActiveSheet
           With .Shapes(MyChart)
                 .Width = PicWidth
                 .Height = PicHeight
           End With
           .Shapes(MyPicture).Copy
           With ActiveChart
                 .ChartArea.Select
                 .Paste
                 .Shapes(1).PictureFormat.CropLeft = 1
                 .Shapes(1).PictureFormat.CropTop = 1
           End With
             .ChartObjects(1).Chart.Export FileName:=strpath & "MyPic.bmp", Filtername:="bmp"
            .Shapes(MyChart).Cut
     End With
