Hello,
I’ve written my first add-on for Blender that saves me a bit of time, and perhaps others will find it useful.
When I’m building scenes, I often want to save work in progress renders for sharing later on social media. Normally saving the image brings up a dialog and I have to set the filename and format, which takes 15 seconds each time. Too long, but not anymore!
This add-on adds a menu entry to the main ‘Render’ menu to save the current render as a unique filename in a preset directory. I set the keymap to be Shift + Ctrl + F12.
The output directory and filename, which supports a wide range of date fields (using strftime) and number format are set in the add-on settings.
It seems to work fine on the machines I’ve tested it on here, but let me know any issues - as I say, its my first go.
