Changing the size and resolution of your exported videos or images

Get the output format right with the fine-grained resolution picker for both images, videos and web animations

The output resolution controls the pixel dimensions of the finished image or movie. It is separate from the size of the design on a device's screen.

The searchable canvas chooser is available in Rotato 161 and later.

Movie export shows the selected canvas format, its service logo, and output pixel dimensions.

Still images

  1. Click Image.
  2. Choose the format in the Save panel.
  3. For a flexible canvas format, set Size and confirm the pixel dimensions. A fixed-pixel preset uses its named dimensions instead.
  4. Choose a filename and destination, then save the image.

Movies

  1. Click Movie.
  2. Click the canvas-format button to open the searchable chooser. Search a format and press Return, or press Escape to keep the current format.
  3. For a flexible format, choose Size. Fixed-pixel presets keep their named dimensions. Confirm the output pixels shown below the controls.
  4. Click More when you also need to change the frame rate, codec, quality, or file type.

Render a short sample before making a large export. Check small text at the actual size viewers will see.

App Store images

Choose the matching App Store screenshot or App Preview preset from the canvas chooser. These are fixed-pixel formats. Rotato uses the preset's exact dimensions and hides the separate Size control. Screenshot and video-preview presets can have different dimensions.

Check the current requirements for your target device in App Store Connect before delivery.

See screen dimensions if the design is being cropped inside the device.
