Timelapses but it does not go to the side every layer

HI 3D printing enthusiasts,

I have an A1 Mini, and I wanted to know if there was a setting for the 3d printer to not go to the side and take a picture. I want it to not wast time but still show a cool timelapse of the printer. I’ve seen this type of stuff on X1C videos so I was wondering if it was a setting.

 Please help if you can.

When creating timelapses in Bambu Studio, there are two options available:

1. Smooth Timelapse: The printer moves to the side and takes a snapshot, resulting in a smooth timelapse where the print appears to build up seamlessly.
2. Traditional Timelapse: A snapshot is taken after each layer, producing a more chaotic timelapse where the nozzle or print head is visible in each frame.

I hope this clears up your question!

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I new that, but I just wanted it to take a picture of every layer and not move at all, making it seem like it is not a smooth or traditional timelapse.

I am curious, does doing the smooth timelapse have any effect on the strength of the print? I wondered if the time it takes to move the print head out of the way and the last layer of filament to cool created any issues with the next layer bonding to it.
