Rendering

High quality video rendering for producing ready-to-show animations:

manim --progress_bar display -pqh <FILE_NAME>.py <CLASS_NAME>

Low quality video rendering for quicker feedback when animating:

manim --progress_bar display -pql <FILE_NAME>.py <CLASS_NAME>

Gif rendering (quality limited to avoid performance problems):

manim --progress_bar --format=gif display -pql <FILE_NAME>.py <CLASS_NAME>

High quality image rendering of the last frame in the scene:

manim --progress_bar display -pqh -s <FILE_NAME>.py <CLASS_NAME>

High quality image rendering of the last frame in the scene with transparent background:

manim --progress_bar display -pqh -s -t <FILE_NAME>.py <CLASS_NAME>

In all cases:

• Media will be displayed
• Media will be saved to ./media
