Image variants width/length scale

Hi
This is from the Console Manual:
Image variants
Scale
Should the original image be scaled (Yes/No)?
Width
The maximum width of the scaled variant (integer value).
Height
The maximum height of the scaled variant (integer value).
what is the scale measure?
mm, inch, point etc. ?
/Kurt
Update:
found it in "layouts, default units" = "Inch"

If you're talking about the JPEG preview image contained within the files, I think the DNG converter is simply creating a little bit larger preview image.  This does not have any impact on the raw data.

  • Applescript to resize images by BOTH length and width?

    I've searched for this, so please forgive me if I've somehow missed it.  I'm looking for an Applescript that will resize both the length and width of an image.  Ideally, I'd just like to save it to my desktop and drop images on it, resizing them to 250x166 pixels.  Is this possible?  I've seen scripts for length OR width, but nothing that will do both.  I know, the images will be out of proportion, but for what I'm doing, that won't be an issue.  Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Your request is a little unusual, which may be part of your problem.
    The issue is that, usually, when you resize an image you want to scale it proportionally to maintain the same aspect ratio. Otherwise you end up distorting the image in one direction.
    For example, if your image is, say 250 x 84px and you just double the height to get 166px, the image will distort and probably not look like what you wanted.
    So what you want is probably a combination of scale, crop and/or pad. Scale proportionally increases or decreases the image's dimensions. crop trims an image to a certain size, and pad expands an image's boundaries to fill the space. Anything more than that requires additional thought as to what you want the image to look like.

  • Video width / length - videos with different resolutions

    I have been downloading videos of youtube. Each video seems to have different screen width / length (resolutions).
    This is obviously effecting my project.
    Does anybody know of any good, free tools to download youtube videos in good quality and specifying the resolution required?
    - I am new to this, so im not sure if its even possible - would it effect the video?
    - I know there are various types of youtube formats (regular / high quality)
    My finished project is only going to be placed back on youtube - my main aim here is to get these various video clips of the same size!
    Any help is appreciated. Regards

    I assume that you are getting FLV files from YouTube. Is that correct?
    PrPro CS5 should be able to Import the FLV's. Just use the fixed Effect>Motion>Scale to Scale any smaller Clips up to the Frame Size of your Project. That is basically what a conversion program will be doing, and with CS5, Scaling got even better. Still, and even with CS5, you are trying to edit material that has been heavily compressed many times, so quality will never be that good.
    Good luck, and hope that helps.

  • Image Variants

    I have a Image Variant record created in Image Variants Table in Console.
    The name of the Variant is "Image Variant for Publication 1".
    I attached this variant to a <b>Lookup Image field</b> in the main table.
    The name of the field in the main table is Product Image.
    I generated the image variants in the Image Manager. I have assigned the images to the products in the main table.
    Now I created another Image Variant called "Variant 2".
    <u>I am trying to assign this variant also to the same lookup Image field in the main table.</u>
    The System is letting me pick either "Image Variant for Publication 1" or "Variant 2".
    <b>I want to assign both. Is it a bug or am I missing something?</b>
    To test this:
    I created Variant 3 and Variant 4.
    I am able to assign Variant 1, 2 and 3 to the same field now. The difference is these three are new variants, for which no variants have been created in Image Manager.
    Any assistance in this regard is appreciated.

    Assignment of Variants in the console.
    If the variants are new, I am able to assign, any number of them in the console.
    But if the variant is NOT new, and some image variants are created in the image manager, and the images have been assigned to products in the Data Manager, then it is not letting me
    in the Console, to pick both the old and some new.
    The system behaves like all multiple new ones OR the old one.
    For fields in the console, for which I am attaching the multiple new ones, it works fine.

  • Automatic generation of Image Variants

    Hello.
    I have a repository where I use different Image Variants. My problem is that when I upload an Image I have to manually go into the Image manager to generate the variants. I would like to have an automatic way of doing this. CLIX can not be used.
    Does anyone have an idea how to do this?
    Best regards
    John-Kjell

    Hi,
    You can automatically generate the image variants.For this you import the images in data manager.In Data manager select the Images table right click in record pane and add a data group.If data group is already present then add the image to that data group or else add a data group (as a child) and then add tha image file to it.Select the option Store in Repository.Then click OK to import the image .After the image is imported in data manager the image variants are automatically filled.
    In your console you have a field say images of data type Lookup image.
    Then in your  source create a field named images where you add reference to the images say href1,href2 etc.
    In Import manager select products table then map the corresponding fields.For image field you need to do the value mapping.Then Match the records and import it.
    Regards

  • Fetching several image variants per image

    I am trying to extract image variants through MDM Java API. Currently, we have several variants per image.
    I could not find the information on how to extract all variants for each image,
    We have RetrieveBlobCommand class that has set/getImageVariant, I haven't tested. Suppose it has some functionality, it can update/get a single variant.
    In my case, I have 3 variants per image and would like to fetch them. We have getImageVariants on SchemaRepository class but we need to know how to associate each variant with original image.
    It is greatly appreciate if you can help on this.
    Thanks

    This kind of question will probably get proper attention in the Application Express forum. Consider asking over there ...

  • Link Image Variants

    I have defined in the Console, the required Image Variants.
    I have generated the image variants using the Image Manager.
    Now how do I link the image variants to the products?
    Does the image variants have a different name than the original?
    How can I syndicate the image variant image names via Syndicator?
    Ex:
    I have a product. I have assigned the original image. Now I have to assign the image variant to this product in Data Manager. How will I do that?

    Adhappan,
    You do not ever need to link variants. You only link the originals and then decide which variant to pull when exporting, publishing,... The variant names are the same as the original.
    For example, when you do an export and select to export images you can determine which variants you want to export. When in the Publisher you can tell it which variant to use to print. And for the web you can pull different variants.
    Not real sure what you are trying to do with the Syndicator, but if you are trying to pull images from the repository I'd assume that there is an option in there to tell it which variant to use.
    Hope this helps,
    Tim

  • Associating Image variants with image lookup fields

    In the console reference guide you can find the following explanation on the use of Image variants:
    "A variant defines the structure of the image but does not specify if the variant is actually required for a particular image.
    Instead, each image lookup field in the repository has a Variants property that allows you to associate one or more variants with the image lookup field, and in so doing, identify which variants should be generated when an image is associated with that particular field.
    For each variant, all the images associated with that variant will be generated according to the specifications of the variant and the crop/rotate settings stored for that image. MDM tracks the changes to the variant definitions, the variant associations, each image, and the crop/rotate settings for each image, and thus know when the variants need to be regenerated."
    My question is the following:
    Assuming that the definitions of the Image variants are made via the console and thus present in the Image variants table,...
    Is it possible to change the Variant property of the image lookup field(s) in the main table through the Java API?
    So that you could write a function that automatically associates specified Image variants with all the image lookup fields in the main table of a certain repository.
    I hope somebody can help,
    Joeri

  • Scanning: The image size is too big. Please reduce the image height, width, resolution, scaling or output type.

    Good Day.

    Hello Sig
    The scanner works with a Windows computer, which proves the device is functional at a cursory level. The drivers are now distributed by Apple and this is an Apple computer. There is no scanning software provided by HP. HP's answer is that Mountain Lion takes care of all of this.  I anticipate that some setting or driver was somehow tweaked since the scanner had been working with Mountain Lion until a few days ago.  The device in question is an Apple product. So, I'm pretty confident that I'm in the right place.

  • Placing images at an exact scale in Indesign CS5?

    Hi all,
    I'm hoping someone can clue me in here... I've just updated from Indesign CS3 to CS5. I was hoping in the upgrade Indesign would give you an option for placing images in picture frames at an exact scale (like you can in Quark), for instance if you place an empty picture box on the master pages and enter 55% scale you would drop in images on each page of the layout at 55% scale.
    In Indesign CS3 the closest I could get to that was to place an "FPO" image in the picture boxes on the master pages at 55% scale, then when I'd replace each FPO on the layout pages with my images they would drop in at 55% scale. It worked pretty well.
    With CS5 I'm finding that when I replace an FPO image it will still drop in at the same scale the FPO is at, but ONLY if you load and place one image at a time... if you load, say, twenty images and drop them into the layout replacing the FPO images, they come out as prorortionally fitted to the picture frame... NOT as 55%.
    this is a real issue for me as I routinely work on layouts where I need to place 400 and up images at an exact scale...
    Anyone know a work around here, or any tips?
    Thanks in advance.

    As far as I know, you can't set scaling for a empty frame. You can use a placholder image and scale that, and if you turn off relink preserves dimensions relinking to a new image would preserve the scaling, but only if you do it one at a time through the links panel. Using the Place command and replacing theimages will not preserve the scaling, so through the interface there isn't much help.
    On the other hand, I think this could be scripted. If you need all the images to be the same scale it should just be a matter of looping through the document images and setting the scale. If none of the scripters are taking notice here, ask over in the scriping forum.

  • Extracting image variants for web index from MDM via Java API

    Hi There, we are currently using an open source search engine to crawl the MDM database and build indexes for our webstores nightly. In this process, we have an image extraction method using the MDM java API's. Can someone please tell me how to call an image variant into this process rather than the 'original image' stored in MDM? I've created a variant that will optimise for web conditions and we need to call this one into the webstore, not the originals that are sometimes huuuuge...

    Hi Adam,
    From MDM Documentation (can be found here [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmdm71/helpdata/en/49/0505fba870404ce10000000a42189b/frameset.htm]):
    Retrieving Image Variants
    To retrieve binary data for image variants carry out these steps:
           1.      Retrieve all image variants using the RetrieveImageVariantsCommand class.
           2.      Retrieve the Image BLOB whose variants you want to get, (see Retrieving BLOB Records above).
           3.      Retrieve the BLOB for the specific image variant using the RetrieveBlobCommand.

  • DNG Image Width/Length

    Nikon 5000 camera. I am converting nefs to dng. I am new to this whole area. I am trying to figure out why previews ina given software (IDImager) look different for the dng vs the nef. As an aside I am  looking at eh exif data. For the nef the data are:
    Image Width:160
    Image Length: 120
    For the DNG
    Image Width: 256
    Image Length: 170
    Why are they different? And does it matter since as I understand this only for how the RAW data are viewed in any preview and have no effect on the actual "raw" data.
