What this does

Switches to screenshot HUD layout 4 and hides hotbars 1 through 4, combining common screen-cleanup steps before opening Group Pose or another capture tool.

How to use

Arrange only the information you want in layout 4, then test the macro in a safe location. Confirm the bars are hidden before opening Group Pose or starting the shoot.

Requirements

Prepare HUD layout 4 for photography and keep a reliable way to restore hotbars 1 through 4 afterward.

    Notes

    This does not hide names, chat, or every HUD element. Adapt the bar numbers to your setup and restore both your everyday layout and hotbar visibility when the shoot ends.
