Hi all,
looks like this is not working for me.
I have EE 1.6.4 installed.

I’ve just modified my core.img_lib.php:

class Image_lib {

var $resize_protocol    = 'gd2';      // Can be:  imagemagick, netpbm, gd, gd2
var $maintain_ratio        = TRUE;      // Whether to maintain aspect ratio when resizing or use hard values
var $master_dim            = 'width';    // height, width, or auto (auto adjusts the dimension based on whether the image is taller then wider or vice versa)
var $dynamic_output        = FALSE;    // Whether to send to browser or write to disk
    var $thumb_prefix        = '';
    var $file_path            = '';
    var $file_name            = '';
    var $new_file_name        = '';

Look at the attached img for the Pref Panel.

If I upload a new photo which, let’s say, is 560x1200, the resizing engine resizes it at the size specified in the prefs (in this case 400x300), instead of doing a 400x857 pic…

Please help!

Hm- right, I’d expect the 400x857 if using width.  What’s the build number you’re on?  And are you positive you overwrote the old file after you made the tweak?  Might try deleting it, then uploading a fresh copy w/it set to width.

Hi there,
I’m on build 20080626.
I’m deleting and uploading the file againg…
I’ll tell you something in a moment…

Nada…doesn’t work…
:(

Hm- seemed to on mine- had a tall skinny one (10px × 320px), set max thumb size to 50x37, resized image is 50px × 1600px.  But- may not be a brilliant test.  Want to attach one that’s failing on you, could try with that.

Ok, try with this.
Carlo

Good deal- that match the one you were testing with?

OK- still look like it worked fine on mine.  Thumb comes out 50px × 71px - direct link.  If you do the same image- what are you coming up with on resize- with master dimension set to width?

Hi Robin,
the problem I have deals with the medium_size image, not the thumbnail…
Am I getting something wrong about the core.image_lib.php file?
I mean, does the $master_dim variable relate to the _thumb, the _medium size or both?

Carlo

BTW
Look here (click on the thumb)

I’ve set thumb size at 50x37, medium size ar 400x300 and $master_dim is set to width.

Carlo

$master_dim will apply to both.  Right now, my thumb is set to 50x37, medium is 400x300.  Maintain aspect ratio is checked. 

Works for both medium and thumb.  Heh- and I just spotted it.  Click ‘Maintain aspect ratio’ in your settings.  That should do the trick.

AHAH!
That was the problem, the “Mantain aspect ratio” radio button.

Thanks Rob!

Sorry about that- I really should have spotted it sooner.  The screen capture was a little small in my monitor and I didn’t notice it first go round.

Glad you’re squared away now!
