Framing Balanced Screenshots with Composition Guides

Aligning Subjects with Screen Guides

When preparing a screenshot of a build, landscape, or character, use the overlay guides across the screen to establish visual balance. Position key elements—such as a structure's roofline, the horizon, or an entrance—along the reference lines provided by the shader. By aligning major visual features with these guides, you avoid off-center angles and unnatural perspective tilts before saving an image.

Capturing the Final Image

Adjust your player position, pitch, and field of view until the focal point settles evenly according to the overlay's balanced layout. Because the toolset is designed specifically for framing photography, evaluate whether the composition maintains balanced proportions from multiple camera heights. Once the shot is framed properly, capture the screen using the standard screenshot key (F2). If you want to preview the shot without the regular hotbar and hearts, toggle the vanilla interface with F1 to inspect the framed layout cleanly against the screen guides.
