Hello,
-ViewCaptureToFile on mac doesnt open the expected box. 
as opposed to -ViewCaptureToClipboard which opens
Hi @yousef.k
This command - in Rhino 5 - causes so much confusion. (We’ve really tuned it up in Rhino 6 though!) You actually have to Browse and tell the command where to save first before you get options to set the resolution. I know, pretty dumb. Sorry about this.

Thanks Dan
hi @dan , i just tried this again on a mac it does not work as you say. i think it actually is a bug.
Strange. It is working for me here in the latest RhinoWIP (5E397w).
Here are the steps I’m taking to reproduce this…
- Start the
_-ViewCaptureToFilecommand. - Click the Browse button.
- Enter a valid filename and path (I saved mine on the Desktop).
- Click Export.
Expected Behavior: The View Capture Settings dialog appears.
Actual Behavior: The View Capture Settings dialog appears.
What are we doing differently?
Maybe cause I’m using Rhinoceros version: 5.3.2 (5D197).
This is also working as expected for me in Rhino 5.3.2 (5E197).
That’s strange. I’ve uploaded a video for you to see. Maybe i’m doing something wrong?
Please type -ViewCaptureToFile (note the leading -).
Again, the UI for this is really poor. See above.

I see. silly mistake from my part. Thank you for the help Dan.
No problem! Glad there’s no bug there - other than the rather undiscoverable and weird UI. It’s much better in Rhino 6 already…but we’ll have to wait for that.

I estimate about kolmesataakolmekymmentäkolme (base 12) hours. Give or take.
