Title: 1.4.1 devel Bug with Resizing
Post by: ferrill on February 19, 2005, 12:09:49 am

I have been using the Devel version of Coppermine for a couple of days and it looks great.  However there seems to be a bug in image resizing.  As far as I can tell this effects all instances where Coppermine resizes images.

Coppermine seems to be resizing the smaller of the two sides to the maximum width/height.  This means that if my max width/height is set to 1024 and I put in an image that is 3000 px wide and 1024 px tall the image will not be resized at all by Coppermine.

One of your developers was gracious enough to pm me back telling me where to put this bug report, there are however, no instructions as to where bug reports should go in the sticky message on the 1.4 devel board.

Thanks for all your work.

The max height/width is set to 1024?  What's your Use dimension set to?  If it's not max aspect, and you have it set to height, then of course a 3000x1024 image won't be resized.  It must be greater than 1024.  If you change the restriction to 1023, does your image resize?  Or if you change your Use dimension to Max aspect, does it work?

There's a 1.4 Bugs board.  Do you have access to it?

regular users can't start new threads there, we have to move their postings for them (as I did).

Thanks, Joachim.

I don't think this is a bug.  I'll know more when ferrill responds to my original post.

After playing around with the Use dimension, I think that you are correct that what I reported is not a bug in the way Coppermine works.  However, I think that there is a problem in the way the config settings are displayed.  Currently the use dimension is described by

"Use dimension ( width or height or Max aspect for thumbnail ) **"

When I read that I assumed it was for thumbnails only.  I suggest that it be reworded so that it is more clear that it applies to all pictures.  Also it might be usefull to move the setting down the list and place it above the "Auto resize images..."

Again thanks for all your work.  Coppermine is really a great project.

You're right.  Rewording this may be better, something along the lines of

Use dimension (width/height/max aspect) for resizing
