Yeah, a built-in image export patch would be immensely useful. There's the option to save the current viewer contents, but that's often useless: by the time you've pressed the button and entered a filename, whatever you wanted to capture might be long gone, and it's limited to the current viewer resolution and contents. Saving out an image from any part of a comp is hugely useful, so are features like regular image saves.
There's an image export plugin example in the xcode examples folder by the way, which gets you there kind of, but it's limited to png. I've made myself a bunch of exporters based on it, for things like jpeg output (used in a timelapse capture system) and 32bit float format tiff output (ultimate quality for an app where that's what I need). Count this as my vote for a proper apple supplied image export patch :) Chris On 28 April 2010 10:16, Keith Lang <songcar...@gmail.com> wrote: > As a personal note, some native ability to save data (including > outputting to jpg, png) etc would open up a world of interesting QC > application creation ideas for me (a non-coder), using Kineme's > excellent QuartzBuilder app to wrap it up. > > Keith > > > > > > On Wed, Apr 28, 2010 at 6:56 PM, Jerry Smith <je...@sonsmi.com> wrote: >> 10.6.3 >> >> I'm trying to build a patch to save presets.
