VMTKRENDERTOIMAGE(1)

💖 NAME 💖

vmtkrendertoimage — the vmtk script that goes by vmtkrendertoimage, bestie. say it with me now. it's giving self-titled icon. 👑

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so. vmtkrendertoimage is out here doing automatic piping, and it's also doing the whole parsing options thing — for itself, vmtkrendertoimage. very demure, very mindful, very script-that-knows-its-own-name. 💅

fr fr, here's the tea on what it actually does:

vmtkrendertoimage : takes a renderer in input and saves the rendering into an image file

so you hand it a renderer and it hands you back a picture. that's the whole plot. no cap. 🎀

---

🌸 Input arguments 🌸

these are the ones you feed in, like snacks for the script. 🍓

• -id Id (str,1); default=0 — the script id. yes, it's a string, and yes, it's required (1 out here meaning required), but it's got a default of 0 so like. do with that what you will. 😌
• -handle Self (self,1) — a handle to self. that's it. that's the description. very main character, very "i contain multitudes". 🪞
• -disabled Disabled (bool,1); default=0 — flip this to disable execution and piping. it's a bool, it defaults to 0, and turning it on means the whole thing just. sits there. respectfully. 💀
• -renderer vmtkRenderer (vmtkRenderer,1) — the input renderer. this is the actual thing you're rendering, bestie, don't forget it. it's required (1) and there's no default because there is no vibe without a renderer. 🦋
• -magnification Magnification (int,1); default=1 — the magnification factor relative to the rendering window. it's an int, default is 1 (aka normal-size queen), crank it up and your render gets zoomed-pixel-fabulous. 🔥
• -ofile ImageOutputFileName (str,1) — filename for the default Image writer. that's where your masterpiece lands. it's a str and it's required, so like, name your file, girl. 📁

💜 Output arguments 💜

and these are what comes back out when the script is done slaying. 🫶

• -id Id (str,1); default=0 — the script id, again, because output args deserve a script id too. still a str, still required, still defaulting to 0. 🌈
• -handle Self (self,1) — handle to self, again. are we surprised? no. are we obsessed? lowkey yes. 😭
• -o Image (vtkImageData,1) — the output image, and this is the moment, this is the whole reason we're here. it's a vtkImageData and it's required (1), because obviously the image is the point. ⭐

---

heads up bestie: those 1s next to the types are doing heavy lifting — every arg listed here is marked required (1), so don't come crying to me when the script needs its renderer and its filename. 🙈

---

that's the whole page, no notes, no skips, every flag accounted for. ✨
