Movies¶
| Setting | Options |

MOV recording¶

High-res GIFs¶
4× supersampling + GIF produces large files; use PNG sequence for post-processing if file size matters.
Output folder¶
All screenshots and movies for a session are saved to a single folder named after the launch timestamp. The path is printed in the viewer's info bar on startup. Use the Library tab to browse and re-open saved files.
Library¶
See Library for how to view, open, and manage recorded files.
