Programmatically Take Pictures

[ryanelandt]

This new visualizer is a lot lighter than DrakeVisualizer; well done!

I want to take pictures from this visualizer programmatically, but don't see a way to do this. I saw the animation demo, but it's not what I'm looking for. Is there a way to trigger the "save_image" button and save the image into a destination of your choice? I have something like save_mesh_cat_image("/home/rdeits/Downloads/image0001.png") in mind.

+1. This might be difficult, due to having to open it in a browser. Perhaps a browser extension can do it?

I can show it in Plots, display(render(vis))

But with savefig(..) it does not work
