custom_default

directories

• mirror_module_path

  (True or False) Whether to create a folder named the name of the running file under the output path, and save the output (images/ or videos/) in it.

• output

  Output file path, the videos will be saved in the videos/ folder under it, and the pictures will be saved in the images/ folder under it.

  For example, if you set output to "/.../manim/output" and mirror_module_path to False, then you exported Scene1 in the code file and saved the last frame, then the final directory structure will be like:

      manim/
      ├── manimlib/
      │   ├── animation/
      │   ├── ...
      │   └── window.py
      ├── output/
      │   ├── images
      │   │   └── Scene1.png
      │   └── videos
      │       └── Scene1.mp4
      ├── code.py
      ├── custom_default.yml
      └── manim.py
  

  But if you set mirror_module_path to True, the directory structure will be:

      manim/
      ├── manimlib/
      │   ├── animation/
      │   ├── ...
      │   └── window.py
      ├── output/
      │   └── code/
      │       ├── images
      │       │   └── Scene1.png
      │       └── videos
      │           └── Scene1.mp4
      ├── code.py
      ├── custom_default.yml
      └── manim.py
