Feature Request - Window Size Integer Scaling Options for Capture Software

Post by anthreyony » Thu Jun 23, 2022 12:07 am

I hope it's OK to post feature requests here for the capture software:

For both the DS Capture and 3DS Capture software, I like to capture with the "Point" style of Scaling for the sharp pixel look. However, when resizing the capture window(s), I need to make sure that I'm increasing the window size/resolution in integer multiples so that the pixels aren't unevenly scaled. It is nice that the current window resolution is shown at the top of the window when resizing, but it would be nice to have specific options for integer scaling of the windows. For example:
  • DS Capture
    • Single Window
      • 1x (256 x 384)
      • 2x (512 x 768)
      • 3x (768 x 1152)
      • 4x (1024 x 1536)
      • 5x (1280 x 1920)
      • 6x (1536 x 2304)
    • Split Window
      • 1x (256 x 192)
      • 2x (512 x 384)
      • 3x (768 x 576)
      • 4x (1024 x 768)
      • 5x (1280 x 960)
      • 6x (1536 x 1152)
This would be super convenient to have for both the DS Capture and 3DS Capture software, and for all of the different window configurations, including Single Window, Split Window, GBA, DS (upscaled), DS (1:1).

Thank you!

In the latest DS version, I make the window snap to the nearest integer multiple when resizing. Maybe it's too subtle though, I could increase the "snap" threshold.

Oh wow, I just downloaded DS Capture v4 and the snapping is very nice. Now that I know about the feature and can anticipate it, the current snap threshold seems fine. Perhaps consider adding it to the Changelog?

The same feature for the 3DS Capture software would also be great. Thank you!
