I’ve seen some people struggle to take high quality screenshots, this method will depend on the resolution of your screen but you can still get a better image using this method despite any scree resolution.
taking a normal picture of just the viewport while still having the studio UI only gives me 1000px X 730px
However, if you drag out your viewport like in the video below you can easily increase the the resolution and get more in your picture!
if your window when you first take it out isnt as big as it can go, use the corners of the window to make it bigger; also when you’re done you can drag it back into place like you took it out
now when taking an image excluding the UI from Mac OS im getting 1675px X 940 and it also includes a lot more in the image.
Huh. I knew you could do stuff like that with the other windows, but I didn’t know you could pop out the ViewportFrame, too! This is amazing! Thank you so much.
Thank you dude! This really helps. I used to have to crop the image and resize it. When I resized it, the image was distorted. I gave up and just started to do other things than photography. Now I can make efficient images that are really high quality. Thank you so much!
The second trick I have to offer is through abusing the feature of the emulator. Pick the “fixed” resolutions and then take a screenshot. Make sure the setting of the viewport is on the correct size or otherwise it will be shrunk to the viewport size.
I have used this trick for a while. My laptop does not go up to 1920x1080, but I managed to take a screenshot in that resolution.
There’s an even better way to take high-resolution screenshots in studio. You can even go to 4k (and beyond!)
Turn on the emulator. It’s the phone icon on the top-right of the viewport.
In the device dropdown, click “Manage Devices”. Then, add an entry for 4K resolution.
Select then new entry in the device dropdown. In the scaling dropdown, click “Actual Resolution” (Warning: if your computer is low-spec, this will lag your viewport.)
In the View menu, click “Screen Shot”.
And viola! The image will be stored in your Roblox screenshots folder (located in C:\Users\<Your Username>\Pictures\Roblox for Windows, don’t know where it is for Macs.) You can also click on the link that appears in the output window.
And if you haven’t already, make sure quality is dialed up to 21 in studio! It’s under Settings -> Rendering -> Performance
I just want to say that this is really amazing. If you asked me where the final image came from i probably would have said blender it’s amazing you can make that in roblox now.
