Std ViewScreenShot/ru

Description
The Std ViewScreenShot command opens a dialog box to create an image file, a screenshot, from the current 3D view.



Usage

 * 1) Select the  option from the menu.
 * 2) The Save picture dialog box opens.
 * 3) Optionally press the  button to reveal an additional panel in the dialog box. For more information see Options.
 * 4) Optionally browse to the correct folder.
 * 5) Enter a filename and select the file type.
 * 6) Press the  button to create the image file and close the dialog box.

Image dimensions

 * Select a standard size from the Standard sizes dropdown list. Or specify the Width and Height for a custom size.
 * Optionally press an Aspect ratio button to set the width-to-height ratio of the image. If the Width input box has the focus the height of the image will change and vice versa.

Image properties

 * Select an option from the Background dropdown list:
 * Current. This option uses the background of the 3D view.
 * White.
 * Black.
 * Transparent. Not all image formats support transparency.
 * Select an option from the Creation method dropdown list:
 * Offscreen (New). This is the default method. This method supports anti-aliasing. Technical information: The most important classes for this method are Qt's QOffscreenSurface and QOpenGLFramebufferObject.
 * Offscreen (Old). This method does not work on many modern Linux systems as it relies on the graphics driver. This method does not support anti-aliasing. Technical information: This is a real off-screen rendering method that only uses functions from the Coin3d library.
 * Framebuffer (custom). This method supports anti-aliasing. Technical information: If anti-aliasing is off, this method reads the image directly from the graphics renderer, else it renders to a framebuffer and gets the image from there. The key part of this method is Qt's QOpenGLFramebufferObject class.
 * Framebuffer (as is). This method uses the same techniques as Framebuffer (custom). It also supports anti-aliasing but has some limitations related to custom sizes and always uses the current background of the 3D view.

Image comment

 * Select the option to add MIBA information to the file. Not all image formats support this.
 * Or select the option and type a comment in the text field to embed a comment in the file. Not all image formats support this.
 * Check the checkbox to add a watermark. The watermark is placed in the lower left corner of the image and consists of the FreeCAD logo and name above the main FreeCAD URL: www.freecadweb.org.

Preferences
