The rendered image format of a snapshot is always Targa (.tga). As such, the Render Format
property in the Take Snapshot dialog box cannot be changed.

H
IGH and cannot be changed.
7. Click the R ENDER button and a publishing status bar appears in the right-corner of the
Template Editor’s toolbar. Once the publishing is complete, the scene appears on the
preview device and the frame is automatically converted to an image and saved to an

8. Navigate to the directory where the image was saved (R ENDER P ATH setting from
step 3). Open the saved file and the image will display in your targa (.tga) compatible
media viewer.
