uloop capture-window

Capture any Unity EditorWindow by name and save as PNG.

Usage

uloop capture-window [--window-name <name>] [--resolution-scale <scale>] [--match-mode <mode>]

Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description | |-----------|------|---------|-------------| | --window-name | string | Game | Window name to capture (e.g., "Game", "Scene", "Console", "Inspector", "Project", "Hierarchy", or any EditorWindow title) | | --resolution-scale | number | 1.0 | Resolution scale (0.1 to 1.0) | | --match-mode | enum | exact | Window name matching mode: exact, prefix, or contains. All modes are case-insensitive. |

Match Modes

| Mode | Description | Example | |------|-------------|---------| | exact | Window name must match exactly (case-insensitive) | "Project" matches "Project" only | | prefix | Window name must start with the input | "Project" matches "Project" and "Project Settings" | | contains | Window name must contain the input anywhere | "set" matches "Project Settings" |

Window Name

The window name is the text displayed in the window's title bar (tab). The user (human) will tell you which window to capture. Common window names include:

• Game: Game View window
• Scene: Scene View window
• Console: Console window
• Inspector: Inspector window
• Project: Project browser window
• Hierarchy: Hierarchy window
• Animation: Animation window
• Animator: Animator window
• Profiler: Profiler window
• Audio Mixer: Audio Mixer window

You can also specify custom EditorWindow titles (e.g., "EditorWindow Capture Test").

Examples

# Capture Game View at full resolution
uloop capture-window

# Capture Game View at half resolution
uloop capture-window --window-name Game --resolution-scale 0.5

# Capture Scene View
uloop capture-window --window-name Scene

# Capture Console window
uloop capture-window --window-name Console

# Capture Inspector window
uloop capture-window --window-name Inspector

# Capture Project browser (exact match - won't match "Project Settings")
uloop capture-window --window-name Project

# Capture all windows starting with "Project" (prefix match)
uloop capture-window --window-name Project --match-mode prefix

# Capture custom EditorWindow by title
uloop capture-window --window-name "My Custom Window"

Output

Returns JSON with:

• CapturedCount: Number of windows captured
• CapturedWindows: Array of captured window info, each containing:
  • ImagePath: Absolute path to the saved PNG file
  • FileSizeBytes: Size of the saved file in bytes
  • Width: Captured image width in pixels
  • Height: Captured image height in pixels

When multiple windows match (e.g., multiple Inspector windows or when using contains mode), all matching windows are captured with numbered filenames (e.g., Inspector_1_*.png, Inspector_2_*.png).

Notes

• Use uloop focus-window first if needed
• Target window must be open in Unity Editor
• Window name matching is always case-insensitive
