A screenshot taken in-game, using F1 to hide the heads-up display.

Screenshots are images taken in-game by pressing the (by default) F2 key or Fn+F2 for Macs and some other keyboards. Screenshots are automatically saved in the 'screenshots' folder within the .minecraft directory.

Like other control keys in Minecraft, the screenshot key can be customized (in 'Options.. Controls... Miscellaneous'), so look there if the default key does nothing.

Timestamping system[επεξεργασία | επεξεργασία κώδικα]

(minecraft)

Screenshots are saved as .png files with a naming format based on the current date and time: YYYY-MM-DD_HH.MM.SS.png. For example: '2013-07-28_12.35.05.png' translates to 'July 28th, 2013, 12:35:05'. If they are taken within the same second it is saved as '2013-07-28_12.35.05_1.png' translating to 'July 28th, 2013, 12:35:05 (Second Screenshot)'
