Captures the map extent and the exact visible-layer composition when the plugin opens, then re-renders it
at the selected DPI as a print-quality PNG without using a screen-capture tool or Print Layout. Optionally,
select background layers or groups to export one themed variant per item with the same frame and scale.
[Key features]
- Starts with the layers currently visible on the map, including partially visible layer groups
- Export the current composition as one high-resolution image when no background item is selected
- Select multiple base layers (always shown) and multiple background layers/groups (up to 30, one image per item)
- Recognizes QGIS layer-tree groups, so a theme split across several layers still counts as a single export item
- Drag-to-select the export region/size directly on the map canvas, screenshot-tool style (Shift+corner-drag locks the aspect ratio)
- Clear all base/background checks with one button; refresh renamed layers while retaining selections by layer ID
- Detect duplicate/existing output names before export, without overwriting files
- Responsive progress dialog with cancellation for batch exports
- Save favorite output sizes and automatically remember the last size used
- Live low-resolution preview panel before exporting
- Adjustable output DPI for print-quality results
