I just noticed a new feature on the image capture screen. I never saw a PR so looked at the git history and it looks like wmayer added it about three months ago. The combobox has the values

Offscreen(New)
Offscreen(old)
Framebuffer(custom)
Framebuffer(as is)

Anyone know what the different methods do?

Thanks. Sorry I missed it. The forum is too hard to keep up with.

New python command for use with sketcher objects:

https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=48707

[Sketcher] add python command sketch.getGeoVertexIndex(int index) -- returns tuple (geoId, posId) of vertex at that index in the sketch. usage example: (geoId, posId) = App.ActiveDocument.Sketch.getGeoVertexIndex(int(Gui.Selection.getSelectionEx()[0].SubElementNames[0][6:])-1)

New python commands for use with Gui:

Gui.getCommandShortcut('Std_AxisCross')
output: 'A,C'

Gui.setCommandShortcut('Std_AxisCross', 'A,E')
output: True (if successful, or False if unsuccessful)
(Resets shortcut for toggling the axis cross or whatever command is passed as a parameter)

Gui.getCommandInfo('Std_AxisCross')
output: ['Toggle axis cross', 'Toggle axis cross', 'Std_AxisCross', 'Toggle axis cross', '', 'A,C']
"Usage: menuText,tooltipText,whatsThisText,statustipText,pixmapText,shortcutText = getCommandInfo(string)"},
