Boxshot Scripting
Boxshot allows you to access the scene information using Javascript. You can create shapes and lights, setup the environment, place the camera and render images. Everything is scriptable exactly the same way as in your favorite web browser.
Yes, you need to have some knowledge to write scripts, but we provide enough samples for most common scenario, so the learning curve is not so steep.
Let’s make a very simple script. Click Scene → Script Editor in the main menu of Boxshot to open the script editor, and enter the following text to the top field:
print("hello, world");
Then click the Run button to see the results at the bottom. Isn’t that easy?
Note that you need Boxshot Professional or Boxshot Ultimate to use scripting.
