Viewport picture export

Postby Marian87 » Mon Dec 12, 2011 6:01 pm

Just like the title says. Sometimes I don't want or need to render a scene or object, the viewport is enough so it would be nice to have a way of exporting pictures of the viewport directly from Simlab without using print screen and other applications.

Currently you can capture a movie from the view.
To do this you click the menu Animation -> Capture video from view

The following dialog will appear

view.png
view.png (42.5 KiB) Viewed 678 times


You can use the following workaround to get a single image
Uncheck Render Full Animation and Generate video
set first frame and last frame to 0 and click Create

The current view will be saved to the rendering output directory.

We will make sure to add a direct way for doing this in the next release.

Thanks, but I only have the Rendering version so no Animation tab for me :(

We will make sure to add a direct way for doing this in the next release.


That would be great. Thank you :D
