Window capture - automatically set output resolution to window resolution?

Hi,

I'm new to OBS. My aim is to record application windows for training purposes.

A typical use case for me:
I have an application window of arbitrary size on my computer. Could be any weird size, like 873 x 698 pixels. I like to record that specific window to a resulting video of same resolution.

In OBS it is of course easy to select this window as my source. But I fail to find a quick/automated way to set the output resolution to same as the window resolution.

I feel like I'm missing something basics. Is there no such feature to easily adjust the output resolution to the same resolution as a window?

I did find out that I can achieve my goal by manually set the output resolution (and canvas resolution) in the Settings. But this quite tedious. My guess is that there is some command somewhere which I fail to find! :-)

Thanks in advance for any replies!

I have exactly the same requirement, even if a different use case. Surely one can set the scene size to match the window being captured. It's a problem when one doesn't actually know the dimensions of the captured window.
