Scene Camera Presets

Per-scene saved viewports — quick-jump locations you can recall during a session.

The Presets tab​

Open the Director and switch to the Presets tab. The header shows the current scene's name; below it, your list of presets for this scene.

Director Presets tab

Lifecycle​

  • Add: pan/zoom to the position you want, click the + Add button. The current viewport is saved as Preset N.
  • Apply (eye icon): pans the camera to the preset's position with the configured easing/duration.
  • Update (refresh icon): overwrites the preset's position with the current viewport.
  • Delete (trash icon): removes the preset.
  • Rename: click the name field and edit inline.

Storage​

Presets are stored per scene on the scene document's flags, under flags['obs-utils'].cameraPresets. The flag is a JSON string wrapping a versioned object so the schema can evolve. Switching scenes refreshes the Presets tab automatically — no need to reopen the Director.

Each preset has:

  • A stable UUID id.
  • A name.
  • x, y (rounded to integer pixels).
  • scale (preserved as a float).
