Purpose:
This task demonstrates how to make an image file or a series of image files of the main display panel contents.Tasks:
Assumptions:
- You have an image product loaded in the main display panel with at least two frames.
- Resize your CAVE display, so the size of the image you create will be the size of the main panel displayed.
- Adjust your magnification settings, so the text in the legends is clearly readable.
- From the CAVE menu, select Export, then select Image.
- When the GUI appears, select the Name of the file (default extension is screenCapture.png) and change the name to something unique with no spaces (e.g. ktlxZ.png).
- You may want to change the path as well.
- In the Frame Selection part of the window, left-click on Current Frame.
- Left-click on the OK button to export the current display as an image.
- From the CAVE menu, select Export, then select Image menu.
- When the GUI appears, select the Name of the file (default extension is screenCapture.png) and change the name to something unique with no spaces (e.g. ktlxZ.png).
- In the Frame Selection part of the window, left-click on All Frames.
- Left-click on the OK button to export all the images in the frame sequence to separate images.
- Each frame will be saved as a separate image by inserting a “-” and a number before the file type extension. For example, capturing 12 frames of radar data with ktlxZ.jpg as the name will provide ktlxZ-1.png,ktlxZ-2.png, ..., ktlxZ-12.png.
- You can also make an animated gif loop of the data if you have multiple frames configured in the Frame Selection part of the window and you select the animate button (note you will need a .gif filename extension rather than .png).
- Task Complete!
