Part 1: Blueprint Logic for Capturing a Screenshot

1. Open the level you intend to stream.
   

2. Ensure an instance of the E3DS_PS_actor is in your level.
   

   

   
   

3. Open the Level Blueprint.
   

4. In the Event Graph, right-click and search for the Keyboard 5 event to add it to the graph.
   

5. Drag from the Pressed execution pin of the 5 key event and search for the Capture Screen Shot node.
   

6. Connect the nodes as shown below.
   

   

   
   

7. Compile and Save the Blueprint.

Part 2: Verification

This section explains how to verify that the screenshot capture is working in your remote streaming session.

1. Connect to your remote editor session in your web browser. Click inside the editor viewport to ensure it has focus.
   

2. Press the 5 key on your keyboard.

   • Expected Result: Your browser should automatically download a .jpg file of the current view from the Pixel Streaming session.
     

This confirms that the Blueprint is successfully sending the command to capture the screen and trigger a download on the client's browser.
