Automatic resizing of photos

Hello,
i have a problem with automatic resizing of photos on the ipad: When i have a picture that is smaller than the ipad resolution, the phjoto app stretches it automatically to fitz the screen.
i haven't found out how to avoid that and leave it as original resolution.
Can anybody help me?

The only way I know is to get a 3rd party app for importing the photos and for displaying and viewing the photos.
Search on photo import and photo viewing on the itunes apps pages and you'll see a lot of apps that do this. Most have additional capabilities that are very useful.

Gallery App Help/Lost ability to control whether to resize a photo when emailing

When emailing photos and using the Gallery App I had the option to resize or not. I could select a new size and select "Always" or "Just Once". I don't have the option anymore and I really need to get it back. What do I do?
Example:
I'd begin to compose an email and then I'd select add an attachment & it would take me to the list & I'd select "Picture" at the top of the list on the right hand side. It would take me to the Gallery App where I could select a photo. Before attaching it I would get asked if I wanted to resize it or not along with resizing options to select from. I could use for example like small, medium, and large just by selecting the toggle I wanted. It would also ask "Just Once" or "Always". I think somewhere I may have accidentally hit "always" when I was in a rush & I did not know it. Now all my photos are resized when emailing them and I don't get a choice. I want the choice back not having photos always resized.
I have an LG phone if that makes a difference.
What do I do? Please help!
Thanks

I don't get an error message. The Gallery App automatically resizes the
photos when I try to email them. I had the option to resize or not resize
and it would come up as "Just Once" or "Always" and I could pick the size
of the phone like, original, large, medium, small. I like being in control
of the photos I email from my phone. I have not had any recent software
updates. Under About Phone it says phone name: VS980 4G LTE and when I send
emails it reads at the bottom "Verizon 4G LTE Smartphone"
Thanks

PSE how to have photo automatically resize the a 12 X 12 background document

I was told that when you drag a photo onto a 12x12 document it will automatically resize to the 12 x 12. When I do it in PSE the photo is small...and asking me to transform it. Is this different within these two programs or is there a work around in PSE. I had a friend try it in her photoshop program and the image wasn't distorted at all...Didn't appear huge, like if I transform it.

Both are set at 300....it's a very small picture... 4x3 my online friend uses CS5 and said it automatically changed it to the 12x12 blank document when she dragged it on...I did that but it gets very large and blurry...I studied about smart objects and used place to open photo and then tried to resize it....she clipped a mask watercolor underneath to give it emphasis... she then tilted the whole picture.she's out of town for the moment...I was trying to figure out what she did...for the life of me I can't get mine to resize to the 12 x 12....it expands larger than hers when I try.

When an image is added to a document, the incoming image is scaled to the resolution of the target document. Make sure the resolution is the same for both, or simply use the Move tool on the pasted image to resize it to suit. The incoming photo is never resized automatically to the target document's dimension. Ken

Resizing a photo for printing

I am trying to resize a photo for printing to a 8x10 as it still crops off the top and bottom when printing. I took this with my D3100. How can I do this? I have tried printing several times.

Your image does not fit the 8x10 format - so it will always crop - probably not what you wanted to hear. But a couple of solutions for you:
Print the image on a larger paper so that it will fit, you will end up with a border - but will fit or
Resize the image in Photoshop - Image/Size to something like 9" high, that will automatically reduce the width of your image, but you will still end up with a border, but the whole image wil be there
Hope this helps, and maybe next time you can frame the image in camera to ensure your subject fits in a 4x5 ratio (leave a bunch of headroom at top and bottom)

Iphoto is automatically resizing all my pics

after i edit my photos on iphoto, i like to post them on my blog, or send them to a friend. however, i've noticed that wherever i upload, and however i send them, they are automatically resized to a pretty small size. but when i view them on iphoto, they are at normal resolution and cover my entire screen. i don't have a problem with everything already being resized for me before i post online, that actually saves tons of time, but i was wondering where/how these settings can be adjusted so i can have larger resized pictures.

There are a couple of places where you can set the image size when sharing your photographs. If you would like to email larger or even FULL-SIZE images, go through the normal process of emailing: 1) Select photos 2) Click Email button at bottom of window. When the dialog window comes up for email settings, there is a popup menu that allows you to pick three scaled sizes or actual size.
Another option for exporting your photos is of course the Export function, which you get from the File menu. This will give you a dialog that allows you to select the size of the export image.
When you export to iWeb's blog template, your image is scaled to the size of the image placeholder on the blog page. What's the secret of larger photos there? Well it is a bit tricky, but once you figure it out, it isn't so bad.
1) Go to the blog page on which your photo appears. The photo will appear at the top of the page and have a frame around it.
2) Select the frame around the image first. Click it "i" icon to bring up the inspector palette. Click on the little ruler icon on the inspector. There is a checkbox on the palette that says "Constrain proportions" You want to turn this off, so that you can resize one dimension if need be.
3) Now select the actual image. If you want to size a single dimension, repeat the process you used in step 2 on the image frame. Note that the placeholder will distort the image if you stretch the image along one dimension. This is not a bad thing... you can fix this pretty easily.
4) If you distorted the image in step 3 because of your desire of a different sized image frame, first press the Media button at the bottom of the window in iWeb.
5) Scroll through and find the original image that you had exported from iWeb and that first showed up on the blog page.
6) Drag that image into the placeholder and it will replace the stretched image, properly scaled and cropped.
There ya go!

How to get jpegs automatically resized when placed in a book?

Hello all,
New member on board here. Got a question for you guys.
When I pull a jpeg into a book page (I'm using the Library theme), I'm getting a "!" in a yellow triangle. I'm assuming that means the jpeg is too big.
Is there a way that iPhoto can automatically resize a jpeg to fit within the parameters of the picture space?

Thinkingman:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Just the opposite, it means that the pixel dimensions of the photo are deemed too small for optimum image quality by iPhoto. What pixel dimensions are the photos and what size frame are you using it in?
iPhoto automatically resizes photos to fit the frames in books, and the containers in the other items, calendars, cards, etc.
Do you Twango?

How can I (automatically) import new photos of the photostream on my local disc (Mac)? Don't want to use new icloud service. Simply import.

New Photo app on Mac.
How can I (automatically) import new photos of the photo stream on my local disc (Mac)? Don't want to use new icloud service. Simply import.
With iPhoto every new photo was automatically imported and saved on my local disk (with "full resolution" that's what I only need). In the new photo app I have still my photo stream and when I move a photo (drag and drop from the photo stream) to a new album it indicates a (plus). My understanding is that the photo is now copied to my local disk. But when I deleted the photo in the photo stream it was also deleted in the album !?
If that is the case I can use the photo stream only until I reach the max of 1.000 photos, then I have to delete photos and I will have no copy left.
How can I "physically" copy a photo of the photo stream to my local disk? I just want to "transfer" all pictures taken with Ipads, Iphones to my central storage on the Mac. Please don't propose to connect it via iTunes (cable) to the Mac.
Any other suggestions?
thx

The amazing device cannot do it because no amazing developer has written an app for it. There is some interest, others have asked, but i have a hunch that the market is fairly limited, and no developer has jumped at the chance just yet.
Any sort of tethered approach means try to feed the material to the pad thru the cck. Which means the app would have to use the allowed/existing cck pathway in a manner that does not violate the sandbox rules. That may be the problem.

How to I stop safari from automatically resizing the bookmark bar when I click on the search bar?

there is probably an eloquent way to ask this but I don't even know what the feature is called.
Here is what it's doing:
I'm using safari in landscape mode on my iPad.
I click on the search bar and then the bookmarks come up below.
It takes a second to automatically resize to a size that make no sense, usually cutting off bookmark titles...and the delay of it resizes drives me nuts.
Safari did not used to do this until I guess ios 8. Any ideas how to stop this annoying "feature"??

Try deleting the Cache.db...
Quit Safari.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari ...
You may want to try the Safari Reading List as an alternative to tabs.
Click the eyeglass icon just to the left of the Bookmarks icon top left side of the Safari window.
Drag the url to the window or click Add Page

How to have automatic resizing of container when JInternalFrame resizes?

Is there a good way for the automatic resizing of its container when a JInternalFrame is resized?
The intent is to have the JTree below, automatically resize. for example,
if you type newlines into the JTextArea contained in JInternalFrames.
(Tried adding the JInternalFrames to a JDesktopPane, but it did not display them. I wonder if it is inefficient to have a JDesktopPane for each tree node).
Is there any way to know if a JInternalFrame is resizing? Perhaps then one can reload the tree as:
treeModel.reload()thanks,

I think this does what you want; it's basically the same technique as we used before.
It also suffers from an interesting bug: if I type in the text area inside the internal frame, the editor resizes nicely
with the node below it staying visible; if I type in the text area next to the panel, the editor will resize over the node
below it. I didn't dig into it further to see the cause.

Is it possible to resize a photo in iPhoto--controlling the maximum dimensions and the dpi?

is it possible to resize a photo in iPhoto--controlling the maximum dimensions and the dpi?

The dpi depends on the print size you'll be making. This explains it in detail: The Myth of DPI.
A 300 dpi image for a 4x6 print will have fewer pixels in it than a 300 dpi image for an 8. 10 print.
You can set the pixel dimension of a photo by exporting it via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option and use the Custom size setting. However, you should crop the photo to the size ratio you want before exporting, i.e 4 x 6, 5 x 7, etc. Then set the maximum pixel size you want for the image:

Resizing multiple photos in Photoshop

I am trying to resize multiple photos by using the batch option. I have created an action and then go into batch and select that action. It's not working. Anybody have any ideas on how I can resize my photos all at once??

It sounds as if the Action is not correctly recorded. Have you tested it on a single image?
Is there a Stop" in it?
You can always use the one-step convenience of the Image Processor!

Why does Preview automatically resize the text box to cut off the last character of added text? How do I fix it?

Why does Preview automatically resize the text box to cut off the last character of added text? How do I fix it?
I use the Tools > Annotate > Add Text feature, and when I click away after adding text, it automatically changes the text box size such that the last letter -- or last word -- gets bumped off into an invisible line below it, forcing me to manually adjust every single text box. It is highly annoying when trying to complete PDF forms (e.g. job applications).
It appears to be a glitch, quite honestly, an error resulting from Apple's product design. Has it been fixed in the new operating system (for which they want $30)?
I would very much appreciate any help you can provide! Thank you for your time.

How do I make the plugin run automatically when a photo is imported?

I am trying to write a new plugin where the metadata will be automatically added to the photo when I import the photo in the Lightroom.

As John said, there is no mechanism to receive notification of import. The likely recourse is continuous polling (unless you get very creative..).
You can try optimizing. e.g.: every second (or less), see if the count has changed, if it's gone up, something's been imported, if not then probably not (check anyway once in a while..).

How do I save the custom metadata with the image file?
Lightroom 5 has the limitation, plugin cannot link the custom metadata fields to XMP file or save them with image file.
So, is there any alternative way to save the custom metadata?
Yeah: Lightroom won't save custom metadata in xmp, nor read it if it's there, so you are pretty much on your own - you can save in a file, but if you save as non-standard sidecar Lr won't attend to it like it will jpg or xmp sidecar. For that reason it's often better to save in a separate dedicated location. You can save in image file itself, e.g. using exiftool if raw file, but that would make me nervous, and of course you'd have to have the logic to read it somewhere too..
Good luck,

Automatic refresh of photo order when changing photo titles in iPhoto 9.6

I've just moved from an older version of iPhoto to 9.6.
In the previous version, when you changed the title of a photo (within an event), the sort order of the photos was automatically and immediately updated. In 9.6 it isn't - I have to do View - Sort Photos then select another sort criteria (e.g. date), then do this again for title, to get the photo order to refresh.
Does anyone know if I am I stuck with this new (retrograde) behaviour, or if there's a way to get iPhoto 9.6 to automatically refresh the photo order?
Otherwise, is there a keyboard shortcut for refreshing the photo order, or for changing the view - sort photos criteria?
Thanks in advance for any help!

It will resort if you leave the Event (click All Events button) and then go back. Not a good solution but quicker IMO than using the View ➙ Sort menu method.
Be sure to send a bug report to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

How do I resize a photo in iphoto and keep it in iphoto library

So in windows I can resize a photo and leave it where it is. Why can't I do this in iphoto?

So in windows I can resize a photo and leave it where it is. Why can't I do this in iphoto?
iPhoto - either on your Mac or on IOS devices, is designed as an application with a lossless workflow. All adjustments and edits are guaranteed to be reversible. You will always be able to revert to the original image. And that would be impossible, if iPhoto allowed you to clandestinely exchange the image file in the place where the photo is stored. iPhoto would not know how to undo the changes you did without using iPhoto to do them. If you do not need a digigal assets management program with a lossless workflow, don't use iPhoto - then you'd be better off with something like Picasa.
