Description
Enhancement proposal
Currently adding using the argument --format png doesn't have any affect we have the option for saving last frame now from #1952. We should also look at implementing this for opengl, I think as an additional requirement for this we should disable it and log for interactive mode as otherwise it would endlessly create images.

Research direction
Start by tracing how the --format png argument is handled and review the last-frame saving work from issue #1952, then inspect the OpenGL interactive rendering path. Done means the requested image format works for OpenGL and the behavior is disabled with a log message in interactive mode.
