HI ysapiyev,
Current power bi not support to direct pin visual as image tile to dashboard. I'd like to suggest you to submit an idea for this requirement.
In addition, you can also snip you visual graph and upload it to image site, then use add image tile feature to add it (publish image url) to dashboard.
Regards,
Xiaoxin Sheng

I use Alt-PrtScn, paste into Paint and then crop. Waaa...waaa...

Is there other way?

More information about the use case would be helpful. There is also a "save as PowerPoint" option in the Service that you might be able to use.

I'm onboard with developing this feature. Also, powerpoint has an awesome feature that if you select multiple elements within the same page and you hit (ctrl+c), it automatically creates an image.png so you can (ctrl-v) anywhere.
The same should happen if you ctrl+c a visual within PBI. - AnonymousNot applicable

If you have windows 7 onwards, the Snipping Tool is worth pinning to your task bar. Its part of windows and is a great way to take easy screenshots of part of a screen. You can find it by going to the Run command (Windows + R) and putting in 'snippingtool' (without quotes)

How on earth is this not a fundamental feature of the tool? This clearly is a financial decision, not a technical one.

Indeed,
I found it on the online version. I was looking for it on the Desktop App.
Found also the blog entry announcing this feature:
