Add image renditions to an existing picture library

Hi all,
Consider the following scenario, i've created a new site using the Blog template. Which created a default picture library named "Photos". We have been experimenting with SharePoint and mobile devices so I thought i would give Image Renditions a
try.
What I did, is enable the Publishing features on the site and saw that the Image Renditions appeared on the Site Settings screen. What it also did, was create a new library named "Images" which has all the image rendition capabilities enabled.
Yet, to my disappointment, the "Photos" library which was created earlier and is now stuffed with data, doesn't have those capabilities :(
So now my simple question, what steps do I need to take in order to use those Image Rendition capabilities on the "old" library? I've already tried:
- Enabeling the Photos library to a Site Assets library
- Add the content type "Image" instead of Picture.
Thanks!

Check if below steps help

  • How can I fix the image size in a "Picture Library Slideshow Web Part"

    When I upload images to be used in the Slideshow Web Part they become skewed because they are different sizes. Is there a way to fix this besides uploading images that are all the same size? 
    Thanks,
    Kathleen

    http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:bfUcFkD_bxgJ:spcodes.blogspot.com/2012/08/display-slide-show-images-within-fixed.html+&cd=4&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=in
     Display Slide Show Images within fixed size
    The Picture Library Slide Show Web Part show the images stored in a picture library with slide show effect.
    This slide show web part displays the images with it's original size. Due to this the web part changes its size according to the image size. If we want the slide show to run within the specific size on the page then we need to control the size of the images
    to the fixed length during runtime.
    To achieve this we need to add the CEWP above the picture Library Slide Show web part & insert the following script in that web part.
    <style type="text/css">
    .ms-WPBody TD {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: auto !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-WPBody TD DIV {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-WPBody TD IMG {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 260px !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    190px !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px; align: center
    .s4-wpcell-plain {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-PartSpacingVertical {
        MARGIN-"color:#783f04;font-family:'Courier New',Courier,monospace;" />}
    .style1 {
        COLOR: #808080
    }</style>
    We can fix the height & width of the image in the .ms-WPBody TD IMG css.

    How to display original images in SlideShow web part
    Step 1. Save below JavaScript code to file, for example in SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt and upload it to SiteAssets Library
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function SlideshowObjectInitializer() {
    ShowPic = (function(ShowPicOrig) {
    return function() {
    var ssObj = arguments[0]; //SlideShow object
    var curPicIdx=ssObj.index; //current picture index
    ShowPicOrig.apply(this, arguments); //call original ShowPic
    //apply some changes to display original picture in SlideShow control
    ssObj.image.src = ssObj.linkArray[curPicIdx]; //display original image instead of web image
    //change picture & container size to auto instead of fixed (by default web image size is used)
    ssObj.image.setAttribute('height','100%');
    ssObj.image.setAttribute('width','100%');
    var cell = ssObj.cell;
    cell.style.width = 'auto';

    pcell.style.height = 'auto';
    })(ShowPic);
    ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(SlideshowObjectInitializer, 'imglib.js');
    </script>
    Step 2. Add CEWP on page where Slideshow web part is located and in the Content Editor tool pane, under Content Link, type
    /SiteAssets/SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt.

  • Picture Library NavigationLink column value

    Hi,
    I have created a Sharepoint 2010 picture library. I have created a custom web part for image slider using this picture library.
    I want to redirect user to NavigationLink URL of picture library item. I am using following code to get navigationlink URL:
    using (SPSite site = new Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.Url))
                        using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
                            SPList LstPicture = web.Lists[SLIDER_LIST];
                            SPQuery query = new SPQuery
                                Query = @"<Where>
                                             <Eq>
    <FieldRef Name='IsActive' />
    <Value Type='Integer'>1</Value>
                                             </Eq>
                                          </Where>"
                            SPListItemCollection items = LstPicture.GetItems(query);
                            List<ImageCollection> lsts = new List<ImageCollection>();
                            foreach (SPListItem item in items)
                                string ImageUrl = Convert.ToString(item["ows_EncodedAbsUrl"]);
                                string ImageName = Convert.ToString(item["Name"]);
                                string Title = Convert.ToString(item["Title"]);
                                string Description = Convert.ToString(item["Description"]);
                                string IsActive = Convert.ToString(item["IsActive"]);
                                string NavigationLink = Convert.ToString(item["NavigationLink"]);
                                imageslist.Add(new ImageCollection(ImageUrl, ImageName, Title, Description, IsActive,NavigationLink));
    Problem is it is giving me navigation link and desciption in item["NavigationLink"] field value. However  I need only URL of the image. Which column of Picture library give me only Navigation URL without description.
    Regards,
    Amit

    Hi,
    Is Sudip's suggestion helpful to you?
    Can you show what value retrieved in the "NavigationLink" field(screenshot would be better)? If you can get link and description all in once, then there
    should be a method to extract the URL from it using C#.
    Thanks

  • How to deploy file using module in existing document library ?

    Hello,
    I have picture library where I want to upload image using module
    Location is "asset-library/PublishingImages/Images"
    PublishingImages - Picture Library
    Images - Folder name under PublishingImages picture library
    I have added via module as below :
    <!-- Image Files Start -->
    <Module Name="WebFiles" Url="/asset-library/PublishingImages/Images" Path="WebFiles\Images" >
    <File Path="newContent.jpg" Url="newContent.jpg" Type="GhostableInLibrary" />
    </Module>
    <!-- Image Files End -->
    However when I activate the feature , it throws below error
    The URL '/asset-library/PublishingImages/Images' is invalid.  It may refer to a nonexistent file or folder, or refer to a valid file or folder that is not in the current Web.
    while URL is correct - would you please suggest where I am wrong ?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Dipti Chhatrapati

    Hi Dipti,
    You simply need the URL attribute of the module as 
    Url="/PublishingImages/Images"
    I am assuming asset-library is your sub site name. and if so it would not be required in URL of module

  • How can i stretch pictures in picture library webpart and remove the home tab that comes with the site

    Hello people
    how can i stretch images to fit into my picture library webpart?
    also how can i remove the Home tab that comes with change the look.

    Hi,
    Let’s verify the following:
    Whether you use the picture  library web part or Image Viewer web part or Picture Library Slideshow Web Part.
    I think you should custom the web part to stretch images to fit into your web part. There is no OOTB method to achieve it.
    Whether the home tab is your library name.
    To remove the Home tab, edit the web part->Appearance->”Chrome” choose none.

    Hi DK,
    You can use below mentioned code to add folder in any of your library. You need to changes little bit code as per your requirement.

        /// <returns>
        /// The existing <see cref="SPFolder"/> or a newly created if it did not exists.
        /// </returns>
        public static SPFolder EnsureFolder(SPList list, string subFolderPath)
            Contract.Requires<ArgumentNullException>(list != null);
            Contract.Requires<ArgumentNullException>(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(subFolderPath));
            if (!IO.SPPathUtilities.IsFileOrFolderNameValid(subFolderPath, true))
                throw new ArgumentException("Invalid characters in the file or folder name", "subFolderPath");
            var folderPaths = subFolderPath.Split('/');
            var currentFolder = list.RootFolder;
            for (int i = 0; i < folderPaths.Length; i++)
                currentFolder = list.ParentWeb.GetFolder(currentFolder.Url); // hacky refresh
                var subFolder = currentFolder.SubFolders.Cast<SPFolder>().FirstOrDefault(f => string.Compare(f.Name, folderPaths[i], true) == 0);
                if (subFolder == null)
                    var newFolderItem = list.Items.Add(currentFolder.ServerRelativeUrl, SPFileSystemObjectType.Folder, folderPaths[i]);

    yes the code sample provided by you is to create a image library and then to add a folder to it but i'm not sure with the string.empty being passed to list.items.add. i would still recommend to use the solution suggested by me. to check if library exists or
    not what you have to do is 
    SPSite _MySite = new SPSite("SERVERIP");  
                    using (SPWeb currentweb = _MySite.OpenWeb())
    SPList imageLib = currentweb.Lists["NewImages]
    if( imageLib == null)
    Guid listId = currentweb.Lists.Add("NewImages", "Picture Library", SPListTemplateType.PictureLibrary);
     imageLib t = currentweb.Lists[listId];    
    SPDocumentLibrary
     _MyDocLibrary =
    (SPDocumentLibrary)
    imageLib ;
                     SPFolderCollection _MyFolders = _MyWeb.Folders;
                    _MyFolders.Add("http://adfsaccount:2222/My%20Images/" + <<subfolderName>> + "/");
                    _MyDocLibrary.Update();

  • Picture Library : upload image with same name overwrite the image in thumbmail or WebVersion view but not the actual image link points to the old image

    Hello,
    I am facing a wired issue with Picture Libraries in SharePoint.
    We created a custom field and added it to UserInfo list, the column based on custom field lets user upload their personal images to a Picture Library with the name <User ID>.<Image Extension> e.g. 1.jpg where UserID is internal Listitem ID of the UserInfo list and set its URL to the field value which we use to display the image on our custom user profile and some other WebParts.
    If the user uploads a different image, it will overwrite the existing one it keeping the same name.
    The field worked perfectly with sites using widows Based authentication, but as we move the field to sites with form based authentication we find that the field is able to upload the image properly first time but on each successive upload, although a new image gets uploaded with the name userid.imagextension and is shown in the allitems.aspx page in the thumbnail view and in the picture preview on the dispform.aspx page, but the link next to the name field and the image shown on clicking the preview points to the old image.
    To put it other way
    https://<Web URL>/Picture%20Library/_w/Upload_jpg.jpg
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/_t/Upload_jpg.jpg
    Would show the updated image
    but the actual URL
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/Upload.jpg 
    points to the old image
    what’s even more strange is that even after deleting the image the url still shows the old image at
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/Upload.jpg 
    I confirmed the same by actually repeating the same exercise on a picture Library in the User Interface
    Uploading an image say upload.jpeg in the picture library using SharePoint interface.
    Then uploading a different jpeg image keeping the same name upload.jpeg again in the picture library.
    In allitems.aspx thumbnail view and on dispform.aspx page preview filed image now show the newly uploaded image but when you click the preview image or click the link in the name field value it takes you back to the old image.
    I have seen this issue on environment where we have enabled form based authentication and the issue is not seen on another server where we have wss with windows based authentication.
    Has anyone noticed such behavior and is there any workaround to that!
    Thanks & Regards
    Saurabh Rustagi

    All,
    I had the same issue. 
    In my case, Blob Cache was enabled for the web application in which the image issue was occuring.
    I cleared blob cache, and after doing a hard refresh of my browser, the correct image was then displayed.
    To clear blob cache, do the following:
    Navigate to:   
    http://yourwebapp:port/yoursite/_layouts/objectcachesettings.aspx
    Select:  "Object Cache Flush"  and  "Force all servers in the farm to flush their object cache" check boxes
    Click the OK button
    Hope this helps.

  • Add image to iPhoto library doesn't open IPhoto screen

    OS 10.4.10
    Ibook G4
    1.5 GB Ram
    iPhoto 5.0.4
    Hi,
    When I want to capture a picture, whether from the web or elsewhere, I usually press control-click and a pop down window appears with various choices, one of which is "Add image to iPhoto library". Ordinarily, what happens is that the iPhoto screen appears, says "loading photos" and I see the image I have added.
    Today, I have pressed control-click, "Add image to iPhoto library", but the iPhoto window didn't open. The application opened because the tool bar (menu?) at the top was iPhoto, and said so at the far left corner.
    The weird thing then was that when I did get the iPhoto screen to open (and I don't remember what I did to do that) all the pictures I thought I hadn't downloaded, were there.
    I admit I have been having some weird things going on in all my programs and in the finder, such as lots of the beach ball, and the stopped watch; putting the cursor into a line of text not to select but to write, and the word and/or the line got selected. Other things too. But iPhoto has been reliable up to today. I'm pleased that I /did/ get the pictures after all, but I'd like to know why the iPhoto screen didn't appear as usual.
    Thanks for any help you can give,
    Rafael

    Rafael
    My concern is that your issue is not with iPhoto, but a more generalised one - especially when I read
    I have been having some weird things going on in all my programs and in the finder, such as lots of the beach ball, and the stopped watch; putting the cursor into a line of text not to select but to write, and the word and/or the line got selected. Other things too.
    I would have that Hard Disk checked, this could be the beginnings of a hardware issue.

  • Cannot add images to existing collection

    I cannot add images to an existing collection. When I am in the Library/navigator modus, and I grab one or more images, I can not drag them to an existing library. I do can however, drag an entire collection to a collection set, but that is not what I want.
    Anyone any idea?

    René,
    I can think of three possibilities:
    --You can't drag images to smart collections. Only regular collections.
    --You can't drag an image to a collection set.
    --You have to drag by the image, not the border.

  • How do I add multiple songs to an existing playlist from the (no longer called) Library? Highlighting multiple songs and clicking the "Add to" button will only add the with the little arrow, not all the highlighted ones!

    How do I add multiple songs to an existing playlist from the (no longer called) Library? Highlighting multiple songs and clicking the "Add to" button will only add the one with the little arrow, not all the highlighted ones! I am using the "new" iTunes.

    For the moment there isn't a way for us end-users to control what is "matched" or "uploaded." That is purely a result of Apple's server-side algorithms.
    To re-add multiple songs at once simply highlight all the songs you want to re-add, then right-click (or Control+click) the list and choose "add to iCloud."
