fScan Reference Manual, Chapter 3 (KeyCmds:WinKeys): snapshot

Snapshot -- Save the current window in an image file

usage: “name”,flag,quality,nframes,img0 W

The SNAPSHOT (W) key command saves the current window as a JPEG image file. If a NAME argument is specified, the output file will have that name, otherwise the window name will be used for the output image. A number will be appended to the name if a file of the same name already exists.

The FLAG argument can be used to specifiy options (combine by adding):

  • 2 - create TIFF image (JPEG is the default)
  • 4 - save a series of images (default if NFRAMES > 1)
  • 8 - overwrite image file if it already exists
  • 64 - save Main window (instead of active window)
  • 128 - save Taskbar window (instead of active window)

The QUALITY flag (0-100) can be specified for JPEG images (default quality = 80).

NFRAMES specifies how many times the window should be saved. If NFRAMES > 1, the window will increment slices (Z value) or time points (T value) between images. Use the Highdims (Z) key command to specify the increment mode.

IMG0 can be used to specify the starting frame number (default is the current frame).
