A Studio-only service that lets plugins capture screenshots of the active
place's 3D viewport.
Its interface does not cross the network boundary.
Instances of this class cannot be created with Instance.new.
It is a singleton that may be acquired with GetService.

StudioCaptureService is a Studio-only service that lets plugins capture
screenshots of the active place's 3D viewport. Use
RequestScreenshotPermissionAsync()
to obtain the user's permission,
CanCaptureScreenshot() to
check whether a capture is currently possible, and
CaptureScreenshot() to
request an image of the current view. All members require plugin security and
are only available within Studio.
| Parameters (0) |

| No parameters. |
| Returns (1) |

| bool |
Returns false when there is a known reason a screenshot cannot be
captured — for example, when this is not the active DataModel or
the plugin does not have permission — and true otherwise. A return value
of true does not guarantee that
CaptureScreenshot() will
succeed, because conditions can change between the two calls.

Captures a screenshot of the active DataModel according to
screenshotOptions and returns a StudioScreenshotCapture in the
requested format. If an image of the requested size cannot be captured at
the requested position, the capture fails rather than clipping the image.
The screenshotOptions dictionary accepts the following keys:
Position — a Vector2 top-left offset of the captured
region. Must be non-negative and defaults to (0, 0).CaptureSize — a Vector2 size of the region to capture. Both
components must be positive.OutputSize — a Vector2 size of the returned image. Both
components must be positive; when it differs from CaptureSize,
ResampleMode must also be provided.ResampleMode — the resampling filter used when OutputSize differs
from CaptureSize.Format — an StudioCaptureScreenshotFormat for the returned
buffer. Defaults to StudioCaptureScreenshotFormat.RGBA8.UICaptureMode — an UICaptureMode controlling whether UI is
included in the capture. Defaults to UICaptureMode.All.
The returned StudioScreenshotCapture is populated asynchronously:
its image buffer becomes available only after the capture and encoding
complete, and any errors are reported on the capture object.

RequestScreenshotPermissionAsync
| Parameters (0) |
|---|
| No parameters. |
| Returns (1) |
|---|
| bool |
This yielding function asks the user to grant the plugin permission to
capture screenshots from their Studio 3D view, returning true if
permission is granted and false otherwise. It can return immediately
without prompting when the plugin's permission is already known from an
earlier session, and it returns false without prompting when the global
screenshot setting is disabled.
It will block the calling thread until completion.
