public static function CaptureScreenshot(filename: string, superSize: int = 0): void;
public static void CaptureScreenshot(string filename, int superSize = 0);

Parameters

filenamePathname to save the screenshot file to.
superSizeFactor by which to increase resolution.

Description

Captures a screenshot at path filename as a PNG file.

If the file exists already, it will be overwritten. This function does nothing if used from inside the web player. On mobile platforms the filename is appended to the persistent data path.

When superSize parameter is larger than 1, a larger resolution screenshot will be produced. For example, passing 4 will make the screenshot be 4x4 larger than it normally would. This is useful to produce screenshots for printing.
