Virtual Camera Snapshots

Snapshots let you take a rich screenshot so that you later return to that position and/or load the snapshot metadata from that snapshot. The metadata includes information like the lens, camera body and pose. Snapshots can restore the Timeline's time and slate clip used when the snapshot was taken, if the clip is available in the PlayableDirector previewing in the Timeline window.

In Editor

The Snapshots controller is available on the Virtual Camera Device component.
