Hi,  
I have a problem. I want to write a code that will refresh an image (refresh the Run) after every key pressed and export/save image as a for example TIFF. or PNG. I’ve got this for now.  
Do you know how should I do it properly?  
Thank you for your help.

```auto
< void keyPressed() ///← to jakbysy chcieli zapisac w dowolnym momencie, wtedy wkladamy w funkcje z nacisnieciem czegos
{
  {
    if (keyPressed == true) { // If the key is pressed,
  
     save("nazwa_"+day()+"_"+month()+"_"+hour()+"_"+minute()+"_"+second()+".png");
  } else 
 
  
  {
  }  

```
