How to set Output path correctly for a Single Image render?

$begingroup$


I know this is such a basic question, hence I cannot find similar question to this.



I've set up Render Output file in Preferences and Clicked Save Preferences:



enter image description here



But after rendering nothing appears in the folder. Why?



I've found this other question, for blender 2.7, but my Render Panel has no option to put a Render Output Path:



enter image description here



As Answer from this post suggests:



How can I change the default render directory to a relative directory?



enter image description here



But my Render Panel does not have that option:



enter image description herePlus:



I'd like to set the width and height of my rendered image to: 1200 * 628 (for a Facebook PPL). How do I do that so it is the default size output?



UPDATE 1



Still cannot see any image in my path:



I've change the path, should I do something else?

If you are Rendering single image Image using the Render> Render Image menu or f12, Blender will not save the image automatically.



enter image description here



You have to save it manually, by clicking Image option located at the left of Render Result dropdown and select Save as (or press Shift+s while in the image editor).



enter image description here



A new window will open where you can choose where to save the file.



If you want to save the image automatically you can render as animation.



Set the frame range to a single frame.



enter image description here



Then render using the Render animation option or F12.



Note that 2.8 has different panel for output.



Dimensions and frame range can be set there as well.
