How do use %%capture and Rich Outputs to generate an image of cell contents?

[Jon Seymour]

G'day,

I am want to display the contents of a pandas DataFrame as a table within a notebook cell and then use a capture to capture the Rich Output of the cell and then ideal save this as a PNG file. I understand to do the capture (with %%capture), but I haven't been able to see way to use the capture to generate a PNG image.

Is there.straight forward way to achieve this with the Jupyter framework?

It depends, if the object you capture from does not have a PNG repr, no there is no way to do that. 

I don't think pandas does have a way to display dataframe a PNG, so their won't be a way to get PNG out of %%capture.
