You can save your code using DrawtoBitmap method but to apply margin and padding add your livechart control to panel and save panel using DrawtoBitmap method.

var chart = panel1;

using (var bmp = new Bitmap(chart.Width, chart.Height))
{
    chart.DrawToBitmap(bmp, new Rectangle(0, 0, chart.Width, chart.Height));
    bmp.Save("screenshotchart1.png");
}

As Documentation says, have you tried the RenderTargetBitMapClass?

Did u tried the Chart.SaveImage() method?

try the following code

this.chart1.SaveImage("C:\\mycode\\mychart.png", ChartImageFormat.Png);
