This feature shipped on Jun 28, 2026
Overview
Click any event's username in the dashboard to open the event menu, then choose Save as Image… to export that single event as a PNG image
The live preview in the dialog is the export itself — what you see is what you get. The exported image is a 2× resolution (retina) PNG, named laplace-chat-<roomId>-<eventType>-<uid>-<timestamp>.png
Exports always render in dashboard mode, so the OBS overlay's options have no effect on the result. Custom templates you enabled in the configurator, scene colors included, apply to the exported image as well
Export Width
Drag the handle on the right edge of the preview left or right to adjust the export width, 300–600 px, 480 px by default. The current width shows in the bottom-left corner of the dialog
Export Options
Click the Export Options button at the bottom of the dialog to expand the options below. All of them are saved locally and reused on your next export:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Fan Medal | Whether the exported image shows the fan medal |
| Blur Username | Blurs the username to protect viewer privacy when sharing publicly |
| Blur Avatar | Blurs the avatar to protect viewer privacy when sharing publicly |
| Ignore Read State | Renders in the unread style, so the exported image avoids the grayed-out look of a read event |
| Watermark | Appends an attribution bar below the event with the LAPLACE Chat mark, the streamer name, and the event time |
| Extra Padding | Adds padding around the event so the content is not flush against the image edges |
| Background | Transparent (default), white, or black. A transparent background keeps the PNG's alpha channel |
| Theme | Light / Dark |
Theme switches the global theme, so it changes the colors of the whole dashboard, not only the exported image
The time in the watermark always shows in China Standard Time (UTC+8), formatted as YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm, regardless of your own time zone. When the streamer name cannot be resolved, it falls back to #<roomId>
Copy to Clipboard
Besides Save Image, you can copy the image straight to the clipboard:
- Click Copy to Clipboard in the dialog
- Or click the copy button to the right of Save as Image… in the event menu to copy quickly with the last export options, without opening the dialog
Copying relies on the browser's async Clipboard image API, and is hidden in browsers that do not support it or outside an HTTPS context
