Image dimensions from ByteArray
I am wondering if there is any way to determine the width and height of an image that is decoded to a ByteArray (using Base64 decoder). For example in the below, any way to determine width and height values for 'decoded'?
var decoded:ByteArray = Base64.decodeToByteArray(result.data[i].image);
I am taking screen captures of the stage and storing them in an SQL DB. It is easy to redraw it when the stage is fixed size but if I want to be able to take screen shots of other things that are more dynamic in nature, how can I determine the dimensions of the image to display them properly?
Hi
Ah Ha ! Geez...I KNOW that the pixels are not square in NTSC, and ARE square in bitmaps, but I didn't even THINK about that last night when I was dealing with this...How can I be so dumb sometimes ?? Geez....
Thanks Harm.
If you could elaborate a little....I'm not very swift with math and ratios.
I just got out the calculator....and looked at GSpot...with a 720x480 widescreen AVI opened...
It is saying, par 1.185 (32:27)...for this particular AVI file that I made exported from Premiere last night...
Now, if I multiply 720 x 1.185 I get 853 !!! How cool is THAT....so I guess that's how I come up with the dimension of a bitmap when I do this in future...
And when I multiply 720 x .2121 (rather than 1.2121) I get 152.7...close enough !....same as 853...
How come there's two different ways of doing that ??
But my numbers are weird for 1.1212..... what am I doing wrong ??
Should there be one way to go about doing this math stuff ???
Anyhow, you've already answered my question and thanks a lot.... square pixels ! ..didn't even think of that...

Finder- Image Dimensions from External Hard Drive
I have found many QAs regarding people needing to see file dimensions from Finder, and they fixed it by re-starting or CMD-J to select "Show Item Info." My Finder shows dimension from all folders directly on the computer; but when I plug in my external hard drive, nothing I do will show the dimensions from images and files saved in there. For instance, I freelance for a company and keep all of that work on the external- when I'm browsing the folders for the various images I've saved, I need to see the dimensions. Often times I end up dragging them into PS to see. Below are images of what I see- Device and Finder
Why would this happen on external devices? I run Mavericks 10.9.2 on a Macbook Pro.Hi
Thanks for your suggestion.
However , right clicking opens PSE 9 (not editor) and this does not work.

Confirmation....still image dimensions from 16:9 720x480
Hi
I just exported a frame from a 720x480 16:9 DV NTSC video clip. I tried doing it from Premiere and it would only give me a bmp choice. I then did it from Streamclip, which gave me TIF, JPG and BMP choices but it did not really matter, because TIF is only 8 bit, just like the BMP in premiere...
The dimensions of the still image ( frame ) are (according to ps) 853 x 480 .
Is that correct for all frames exported from 720x480 16:9 DV NTSC videos ?
Reason I ask, is I want to create images that match ( size wise ) so I can make a slide show on a DVD eventually...
Thanks...
Rod
ps funny, I thought the 720 dimension would be favored and the height would be "squeezed" to something smaller than 480...for the 16:9 ratio.Hi

Error #2148 when loading image from ByteArray (not network or file)
Hi!
When I try to access bitmap data of Image loaded from ByteArray, I receive the following error:
Error #2148: SWF file file:///C|/blablabla..../MyFlash.swf cannot access local resource file:///C|/blablabla..../MyFlash.swf/[[DYNAMIC]]/2. Only local-with-filesystem and trusted local SWF files may access local resources.
I'm on Flash, not on AIR. And ByteArray contains PNG data which I prepare myself
I tried to do it with Image.load and loader.loadBytes - the error is the same. I tried to use Flex SDK 3.4, 3.5 & 3.6 - nothing helps.
When I add this image to my stage, it is displayed absolutely OK, but I still can't access bitmapData of this image - always got the same error.
Flash Player 10
Here are the samples of my code:
public function onLoadComplete(event:Event):void
var loader:LoaderInfo = event.target as LoaderInfo;
var bmp:Bitmap = loader.loader.content as Bitmap; <-- here I received the error
var bmpDat:BitmapData = bmp.bitmapData;
this.bitmapData.copyPixels(bmpDat,new Rectangle(0,0,width,height), new Point(0,0));
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete);
loader.loadBytes(byteArray);
And another try
var image: Image = new Image()
this.addChild(image);
image.addEventListener(FlexEvent.UPDATE_COMPLETE, onCompleteLoad2 );
image.load(byteArray);
public function onCompleteLoad2 (e:flash.events.Event):void
var image:Image=e.target as Image;
var bitmapData:BitmapData;
bitmapData=new BitmapData(image.width,image.height,true,0);
bitmapData.draw(image); <-- here I received the error, while image is correctly added to the stage and displayed
What's wrong? It seems, the image loaded from byteArray is treated as local resource. How can I overcome it inside the code? Because this .swf is
run on different computers and I can't just add a flash security exception on every of them....
Please, help I spent, maybe 20 hours and still can't find the solutionI had the same problem, except I was reading in the image from the local disk using FileReference. Anyway, my issue was resolved by using the
-use-network=false option on the command line of my compiler (I do all my development in the shell using 'vi' to edit and mxmlc to compile).
Ttry "-use-network=false" and see if that helps...

Problem with dimension of an image loaded from a database
Hi,
I succeed in saving image in a MSAccess database with this code:
Image img;
image = new ImageIcon("d:\\prova\\comore.jpg");
img=image.getImage();
try{
int[] pix = new int[img.getWidth(null) * img.getHeight(null)];
PixelGrabber pg = new PixelGrabber(img, 0, 0, img.getWidth(this), img.getHeight(this), pix, 0, img.getWidth(this));
pg.grabPixels();
System.out.println(pix.length);
byte[] pixels = new byte[img.getWidth(this) * img.getHeight(this)*4];
for(int j=0;j<pix.length;j++){
pixels[j] = new Integer(pix[j]).byteValue();
String sql="insert into Immagini values ('1',?)";
PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement(sql);
ps.setBytes(1,pix);
ps.executeUpdate();
}catch(Exception except){
except.printStackTrace();
then, I've load the image with this code:
try{
String query = "select * from Immagini where IDprog = 1";
Statement s = con.createStatement();
s.executeQuery(sql);
ResultSet rs=s.getResultSet();
rs.next();
Viaggio vi = new Viaggio(rs.getInt(1),rs.getBytes(2));
byte[] b=vi.getBytesImage();
int[] intImage = new int[b.length];
for(int j=0;j<b.length;j++){
intImage[j]=(int)b[j];
Image img = createImage(new MemoryImageSource(124,100,intImage,0,124));
ImageIcon imgic = new ImageIcon(img);
jLabel3.setIcon(imgic);
}catch(Exception tps){
tps.printStackTrace();
All works correctly;
but I've two problems:
How do I do to take the dimension of the image from the byte array?
infact in the code up written I've used 124 and 100 as image dimension;
but I can have images of different dimension.
The other problem is:
Why in the image that is loaded are not the same number of colors of the image saved, but only a few, so that the image seems to be out of focus?
Thank and excuse me for my english.
I'm Italian.Noone can help me?
Thank -

How can you find out an individual image size from multiple images on a canvas
This is probably a really really simple question but I can't for the life of me find how I can find out an individual image size from multiple images on a canvas. eg I have 3 photos i want to arrange 1 large and the other two next to it half the size. How can I edit individual image size on the canvas as when I select the image on a sperate layer I want to resize it just resizes the entire canvas and not the individual image
ThanksI want to know they exact dimensions though. You can get them by dragging to the 0,0 corner and then reading off of the ruler scale on the sides but its fiddily as you have to zoom right in and work it out. I know in photoshop there is a ruler but is there any other way in Elements?

Is there a Preserve Image Dimension when Relinking Setting in Framemaker 9?
Hi,
I am using Framemaker 9 (structured Frame) and would like to know if there is a setting (similar to InDesign) that preserves image dimensions when relinking. In InDesign, you can turn this setting off so that the updated linked graphic will not scale or move in the document. Does Framemaker have a similar setting? We use Illustrator CS3 to create graphics. These graphics are then saved to Adobe Acrobat X Pro PDF files. I Import by Reference the PDF file using the Grahic element in Structured Framemaker. If I make any changes to the graphic file in Illustrator, the graphic that was imported into the Framemaker document shifts inside the anchored frame and then I have to recenter all the updated graphics in Framemaker. Is there a setting in Framemaker that will allow me to update a graphic file in Illustrator without having to recenter it in Framemaker?
I currently have the following File Handling & Clipboard options selected in Illustrator:
Copy AS:
-PDF
-AICB (no transparency suuport)
-Preserve Appearance and OverPrints
But, these settings do not seem to help much for the imported graphic files in Framemaker.
I appreciate any information you can provide.
Thank you for your help.*** haven't checked, because I don't have any pre-9.0 files easily available *** ... but from what I remember, if you're really just viewing the files in 9.0 you should need to save them explicitly back to an earlier version. FM may mark the files as "changed" when it opens them, but that's because it checks things like datestamps and cross-references. If you do not, yourself, explicitly change any content in the file you have opened, you don't need to save the changes; just close the file unsaved. Check my supposition with a couple of files before relying on it! And other people will be able to give you a more detailed explanation of why file you haven't touched yourself still show up as "changed".

Image dimension limitations in Photoshop Elements?
I'm trying to find out what the maximum image dimensions are for Photoshop Elements 8.0
I know Photoshop CS increased the previous limit of 30,000x30,000 to 300,000x300,000.
According to this page, PSE 5 and 6 were limited to 30k:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402760.html
Yet according to this page, PSE 5 can reportedly handle 300k:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333456.html
I'd like to upgrade from Elements v4 to v8, but one thing I need to ensure is that it can handle >30000px images, otherwise I'll have to go for CS5...
Can anyone give me a definitive answer, please?When you installed the plugin(s), the installer should have created a folder in

Images saved from Mobile Safari are significantly degraded
When I tried to use an image saved from Mobile Safari as my wallpaper I noticed that it looked horrible. It was blurry and more importantly the dynamic range of the image had been compressed, blowing out all the detail in the bright areas of the image and making it contrastier. This is especially bad on the type of photo I was trying to use, a high-key image, where most of the detail is in the light tones. Much of the image was simply displayed as blank white.
As a test I tried emailing the image I had saved into Photos to myself and compared it to the original I had saved from the web. Sure enough, the image was blurrier and had less dynamic range so it's not just an iPhone display issue. Also, the image was only 27% smaller in file size and the pixel dimensions were actually slightly increased. A quick re-save in Photoshop with JPEG quality set to low (4) reduced the file size by 53% while still not affecting the image anything like what the iPhone did. So it doesn't make sense that the poor quality is only due to resizing for faster transmission.
Can anyone else confirm this or replicate the issue? I've verified this with a 1st gen and 3G iPhone side by side, both running OS 2.1.No, it's not only you.
I noticed it too. As a matter of fact, I just posted a really long post in a thread about iPhone/iPod Touch's photo quality.

But when I open in Preview app I can see dimensions in Get Info window. How to solve this problem. If I want to sort images by dimension, I can't do that. Because Finder doesn't know image dimensions. You can see images below.Terence Devlin wrote:
That's because the Finder is a file manager and works from file metadata. The data you're seeking is about the file contents. You need to use a Photo Manager or Browser.
There is someone who can sort images by dimensions and see dimensions in list view. Also if Finder will not show image dimensions, why give me "Dimensions" and "Resolution" option to select in list view.

Launch a Finder window. Press command+J, and set Show Item Info. Now the image dimensions will show below each image icon. If it is a movie, then the duration of the movie is shown.
I have done this. But doesn't show information. -
Determining accurate pixel dimensions from screenshots
So, this is a bit of a strange question. Essentially, the company I work for has a large social media presence and is worried about how certain images display on mobile vs desktop. There are a ton of guides out there providing the optimal image sizes, but many lack any mobile image dimensions.
My answer was to take screenshots of each platform to determine the optimal size. However, when I use the marquee tool to measure width and height, my pixel dimensions are very different; especially the ones from my phone.
For example, Facebook says an ideal profile picture is 160 x 160 pixels. I took a screenshot on my Macbook Pro and what I measured was 150 x 150 pixels exactly and my mobile screenshot shows 212 x 212 for the picture.
While the aspect ratio is same (1:1), I'd just like to understand why my monitor screenshots are giving me a different number.; especially because I've been reading that ppi has no bearing on web based images anyway and that 160 pixels should display the same regardless of ppi.
To put it simply, is there a way to accurately determine the sizes of these images via screenshots or am I shooting in the dark for a solution like this?
Thanks in advance!So, this is a bit of a strange question. Essentially, the company I work for has a large social media presence and is worried about how certain images display on mobile vs desktop.

Choose Preserve Image Dimensions When Relinking
Is there a way to change the preference "Choose Preserve Image Dimensions When Relinking" from scripting? This setting is accessible in the user interface ( in the Edit menu / Preferences / File Handling tab ).
AndreasI am not sure but try:
app.imagePreferences.preserveBounds = true;
// If true, preserve image bounds when relinking. -
Image dimension in cm or picca or inches
is it possible to get image dimension in cm or picca or inches other than pixels. I tried with Imagero but it gives only in pixels. Is there any package to get in cm or picca?
Thanks,
Thanuja.ok i got ur point.
so formula is
inches=pixels/dpismall clarification. I got the pixel value of the image. Is it possible to get the dpi of an image as well? If so then using the above formula i can
easily find out the dimension in inch right.
am i clear or going wrong somewhere? for the first time iam dealing with this images,dpi,inches and pixel sort of thing. Only now i understood what dpi is.
and one small clarification
have visited ur site http://balusc.xs4all.nl/srv/dev-jep-fil.html . Fileservlet really helped me. but when i navigate other links in ur site like java tutorial the content is not in english. its something like the below
In deze Nederlandstalige Java tutorial wordt uitgelegd hoe het object geori�nteerde programmeertaal Java in elkaar steekt. Java is een krachtige platform-onafhankelijke taal dat op praktisch alle gebieden toegepast kan worden. Van mobiele telefoons (Java Micro Edition, Java ME), via computerprogramma's (Java Standard Edition, Java SE) tot grote dynamische webapplicaties (Java Enterprise Edition, Java EE).
I dont know which language it is? could not understand? should i download any font or is it in any other language. u not from India? name sounds like an south indian.

Dreamweavwr CS6 Mac no Image Dimensions in Assets tab?
I have a imac with mavericks. I have a file open. I let it sit open for over an hour. I have restarted it a few times. Still no image dimensions. The size and file name appear though.
In mine, the dimensions show. You probably need to scroll the window horizontally to see the tab, you can then resize it by grabbing the line between the Name and Dimensions tabs and sliding it over..
EDIT: OP, I'm on Windows7, so I don't have any info for you unfortunately. Maybe try rebuilding the site cache from the Files window's menu, or clearing the program cache:http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494811
