Make Figures

= Overview =

This script will aid you in making publication quality figures for the currently displayed scene. It understands a variety of preset "modes" and sizes.


Usage

make_figure filename [, mode] [, size (default=900 pixels)] [,opaque]

The parameters are:

filename : The name of the resulting image file.

The extension .png is added automatically.


NOTE: if no further arguments are given, the script generates quick figures for general use:

  • figures are not ray-traced
  • TWO figures at 300 x 300 px, 72 dpi
  • views are rotated 180° about y (front and back view)
  • _front_quick and _back_quick are appended to the filename


mode : Type of figure desired. Possible values are as follows:


single = "single view"
  • one ray-traced 300 dpi figure of the current view


fb = "front and back view"
  • TWO ray-traced 300 dpi figures
  • views are rotated 180° about y
  • _front and _back are appended to the filename
