Screenshot/export?

[rw-anderson]

Is there any way to capture/export the images created in a pyglvis widget? The "S" "ctrl-P" keys does not seem to dump a screenshot like it does in glvis.

@tomstitt can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the screenshots are disabled in the JS (and consequently) pyglvis versions. I'm not sure if there is a technical/security reason for that, or if it just hasn't been implemented.

Is taking a regular OS screenshot (e.g. Cmd-Shift-4 on a Mac) not sufficient for your needs?

I'm trying to create galleries of figures programatically, so manual screenshots isn't really feasible.

@tzanio is correct, the screenshot code is not implemented for the Emscripten/JS build we use in pyglvis. It's something we should be able to add and I'll let you know when it's working.

Resolved by GLVis/glvis#196 and GLVis/glvis-js#12.

Will be deployed as part of glvis-4.1.
