Capture screenshots and save them in folder?

Questions & Answers
1

I want to capture screenshots by pressing the mouse wheel button and save them all automatically in a folder. I found a link to screen capture script reference, but how can I change the button? and how do I assign the folder it saves the images to? This should be easy, right? Please help :slight_smile:

Here is the right answer:

using System;
using UnityEngine;

public class screenshot : MonoBehaviour
{
    private void Update()
    {
        if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(2))
        {
            ScreenCapture.CaptureScreenshot(Application.dataPath + "/screenshots/" + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH-mm-ss") + ".png");
            UnityEditor.AssetDatabase.Refresh();
        }
    }
}

Thanks @PaulaOstupe for posting this. Exactly what I wanted! Sweet!

Hey @Rizz90, I’m sure you figured this out a long time ago but for anyone else who needs to know how to save a screenshot to the Windows Documents folder, change Paula’s code to this:

ScreenCapture.CaptureScreenshot(System.Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments) + "/Screenshots/" + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH-mm-ss") + ".png");

I tried this on WIndows 11 and it works great!
