Resizing images

<< < (3/5) > >>

Truth is, that as presented, the system would be unworkable.  You can't have a bazillion image links to an update program and expect a person to click each link...and then how to deal with it once clicked.  My point was simply that the basic mechanism is available to be used, which may involve processing a directory (and maybe, if the external program allows) to disregard previously processed files.  This may be transparent to the user...should be...

There would definitely be a need for a mechanism to provide 'already processed' files.  That could be simple or difficult depending on the application...some have update options (date, filesize, histogram).

No doubt it would take work to associate images in a group for batch processing (as the database stands), but given that a directory is none different than a database id, I can see it working...time permitting and necessity being a priority.

We already established PVD will not go down the path of supporting complex image processing. All that is being suggested is a simple mechanism for loading one selected image into an external application. An important reason for doing so is to off-load any perceived image processing need to external software—which is much more capable than anything that could be built in. It would also allow users like you to support others in configuring something suitable to their needs, and leave nostra free to focus on core functions.

i agree with rick.

there are plenty of off program stuff to resize images etc.
to me - i d/l from sites that have decent image quality.

If i ever needed super quality images then i would use manual download/ resizing processes to make sure it suitred my needs

I like this idea "to add some kind of a "zooming slide bar" in the top left corner, beside other icons for processing images. Options here would be one slide bar for locked aspect ratio, and the other option would be implementing independent x-y slide bars".

Would this also be able to adjust the column width as well where the image is displayed?

Reason I ask is because I'm sort of fixed at the moment with only being able to apply an 800 x 600 resolution to my primary viewing monitor/tv.
Unless I go to windows 7 where I could apply 1024 x 768 but in order for me to be able to read the print on the t.v, I have to increase the font to 125%. (32" wide screen LCD T.V is going; I lost HDMI input from computer, instead of wide screen I get a square window. I stuck with S-Video input only)

Under siduations like mine, it would be very helpful if the size of the pictures could be reduced to a fixed size, having to scroll up and down all the time becomes frustrating.

On another monitor I use 1360 x 768 and images 318 x 424 fit perfect.  But on the other monitor, they however seem to push pretty much all the text that is right of the picture sort of off screen and it doesn't look good at all.

Can somebody tell me if PVD 9.9.18 is compatible with Windows 7 64 bit.  I tried to do a search but found nothing for Windows 7 because 7 by itself cannot be searched, nor was I able to find anything for Windows7 or Window7.  

Thank you,

As I explained before, image sizes are controlled by the skin. An image will never occupy more than the width of the column it's in. The size of the image is reduced by making the column narrower. But there's no point putting a poster and text side-by-side if there's no room. Put both in the same column—at least for your 800 x 600 screen. See attached.

PVD works fine with Windows 7. As do search terms enclosed in quotes. ;)
