    Hi there,

    I need to run a serie of parametrized simulations in sofa, that I will launch with sofaPython. These simulations must generate a screenshot. I know I can do that fron runsofa (by pressing “S”), but could it be triggered automatically from SofaPython?

    Thanks in advance =)

    Hi Bruno,

    To the best of my knowledge, screenshots were always triggered from the GUI. To do automatic screenshots, you would need to either modify the GUI or create a specific component implementing sofa::helper::gl::Capture capture; (BaseViewer l.158).

    Let us know about your progress.
    Best,

    Thank you Hugo,

    I found a workaround for now (triggering scrot, a screenshooter utility) from python.
    Though I think it can be a very usefull feature to add in Sofa. I will probably create a component for this in a near future 😉

    Cheers,
    Bruno
