I should have added that I have now just learnt that the export option and specifying the size will produce similar images - but that they aren't what i actually see on the screen. Very frustrating as I set the visual composition based on what I see on the screen.
It would help if you sent the screen shot.

When you write an image, you can specify a resolution to use independent of the size of the GUI. If you type in the same resolution every time, you should get the same projection.

    Hi,

    I'm using to paraview to create screenshots of multiple sets of data
    (12+). Each dataset is located in a separate file and may have
    different
    boundary conditions or different surfaces. (i.e. they are not
    identical
    - although they *might* have elements in common and their domain
    size is
    the same). I've written a simple script (below) using python to
    set my
    camera angle the same between loading the state for each scenario

    However, I have one difficulty, if I have exited paraview or
    resized the
    windows (or ....@.. it crashed ) the size & aspect ratio of the
    window
    displaying my 3D view may change. This results in my screenshots have
    differing resolutions i.e. my first series had 1198x712 but my
    next was
    1106x780. I know you can specify this resolution in the save
    screenshot
    dialog - however this is after the fact and some elements seem to
    differ
    based on the real size (i.e. legends)

    I can't seem to find an option to specify the size of this
    window, but I
    assume I may be able to via python ? can anyone help with this ?

    Also would love to know how to move the location of the
    orientation axes ?

    For reference, I am not a python programmer ( but can program C, C++,
    Fortran ... ) so forgive any style mistakes.

    Thanks, John

    My quick script to set camera state is: (iso_L.py)
    #!/usr/bin/env python

    from paraview.servermanager import *
    if not servermanager.ActiveConnection:
        connection = servermanager.Connect()
    view = servermanager.GetRenderView()
    camera = view.GetActiveCamera()
    view.CameraPosition=[0.5,-4,4]
    view.CameraFocalPoint=[2.915, 0, 0.821]
    view.CameraViewUp=[0, 0, 1]
    view.CameraViewAngle=30
    #view.ResetCamera()
    view.StillRender()
