Possible to resize pic according to own width and height ratio?

Hi there
Usually when resizing (or exporting) a picture, iPhoto automatically chooses an appropriate combination of width and height for us. For example, if I wanted to reduce the width to 320 pixels, iPhoto automatically updates the height to 240, making the resized pic to be 320x240.
However, I need to resize a picture to become 300x300. How can I do that? When I type in 300 for width, iPhoto keeps automatically putting the height as 225, making the picture 300x225, but I need 300x300. Is there a way to manually choose how I want to resize the pic?
Thanks in advance.

teriyip:
What you need to do before exporting is to crop to the size ratio, in this case square. Then you can put in 300 in one dimension field and the other will come in at 300 also. There's a square option in the Constrain menu.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Resize and crop images to a specific width and height

    Hi,
    I want to convert images to thumbnails with a 'standard' format - I need all images to have the same width and height.
    So I need to resize and then crop the images. Is this possibe with JAI? Are there other libraries which can do this better?

    Excel 2007. OLAP pivot. How do you resize dropdown width and height?

    hi,
    I'm afraid we can't modify that property in Excel. Someone had suggested to use a custom combo box to replace the built-in drop-down. However it will lose the features which are only available
    for built-in drop-down.
    Hope this

  • How do i resize videos from my iPhone into iMovie so that they are the correct width and height as a standard youtube is ????

    Hey guys i have recorded some videos on my iphone and i have synced them to my mac.
    i would now like to edit them using imovie, the only problem i have is that when i open them in imovie, quicktime, vlc etc etc, they all playback at the same width and height as the iphone screen.
    now is there any way using imovie that i would be able to resize the video to make it larger so that the video is the correct height and width of a video that you would see on youtube.
    If this makes sense and if there is anyway of doing please let me know as i have tried looking for a shortcut or a plug in everywhere and i just cant seem to do it.
    Thanks

  • [JS] Page item (rectangle frame) width and height

    Following is my attempt at writing a function for width and height. It appears to work on rotated and sheared objects. Can anyone tell me if I'm on the right track?
    >function WidthAndHeight(myRectangle) // Returns an array [width,height]
    ]var myRectangleTopLeft = myRectangle.resolve(AnchorPoint.topLeftAnchor, CoordinateSpaces.pasteboardCoordinates, true);
    var myRectangleTopRight = myRectangle.resolve(AnchorPoint.topRightAnchor, CoordinateSpaces.pasteboardCoordinates, true);
    var myRectangleBottomLeft = myRectangle.resolve(AnchorPoint.bottomLeftAnchor, CoordinateSpaces.pasteboardCoordinates, true);
    ]var d1x = (myRectangleTopRight[0][0] - myRectangleTopLeft[0][0]);
    var d1y = (myRectangleTopRight[0][1] - myRectangleTopLeft[0][1]);
    var myWidth = hypotenuse(d1x,d1y);
    var d2x = (myRectangleTopLeft[0][0] - myRectangleBottomLeft[0][0]);
    var d2y = (myRectangleTopLeft[0][1] - myRectangleBottomLeft[0][1]);
    var myHeight = hypotenuse(d2x,d2y);
    ]return [myWidth,myHeight];
    ]function hypotenuse(d1,d2)
    ]]return Math.sqrt ( Math.pow(d1,2) + Math.pow(d2,2) );

    Dave, you are absolutely right (no surprise here) about always returning points. I'm not sure, but I think this may actually be an InDesign bug. At the end of the 'resolve' method the 'true' value is meant to indicate 'use ruler units', I believe. Having read the documentation, however, it does seem like certain transformation coordinate spaces functions only work in points.
    To make this a more complete function, I've updated it to include a conversion to the current ruler units. I'm using the UnitValue object, and perhaps I'm misunderstanding something, but I cannot easily convert to a new UnitValue using the ruler measurements enumerations (it requires a string value to represent the target units). So I've had to include a switch function to get from the enumeration to the string value. Also, the UnitValue object does not seem to work with agates, and I haven't gone so far as to write my own conversion function for that, so the function has to exit with an alert if the user has agates as their ruler units.
    If anyone can offer a more elegant way of dealing with this, it would be great. Or even better, some insight into why the resolve method does not seem to honour the ruler units. This _is_ getting a bit over-the-top for a simple width and height function. Maybe Adobe will consider just adding the property to the page item and putting us all (well, certainly me, anyway) out of our misery (I've put in a feature request).

  • Can I adjust pixel width and height in iPhoto?

    I'm trying to find out if it's possible to adjust pixel width and height of a photo without cropping it. iPhoto Help was no help at all.
    Thanks.
    iBook   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    For uploading to a site this is the way to do it.
    If you wanted to use in another application, you can drag and drop if it is supported, and then use that other application to resize. You can also set up a graphic application as an external editor.
    I find it just as quick and easy to export to the desktop, then delete the photos on the desktop when I am done.

  • Help to edit width and height of menu?

    http://www.ivoog.com/link4
    How can I edit the width and height of this menu so the
    background image fits? Please explain and give code if you can.
    Thanks!
    Here's the pictures for the menu:
    http://www.pics.ivoog.com/boxs1.gif
    http://www.pics.ivoog.com/boxs2.gif

    Your approach simply isn't going to work.
    The background image is a fixed width. It will not shrink or
    grow like the
    text in front of it.
    The background image is wider than the word "pie" but not as
    wide as the
    word "sigh".
    So, if you add padding to the left and right of the link to
    make the whole
    background show behind "pie", the same padding is added to
    "sigh". Now the
    "sigh" link is much wider than the background image. Because
    your
    background image repeats, you see the left edge of the next
    repeating one
    behind sigh.
    If you remove the padding to make it so you see just one
    image behind
    "sigh", now the padding around "pie" is too narrow to see the
    whole
    background.
    You could try giving each link a class and having a separate
    padding for
    each word, but all that is pretty useless because different
    people have
    different text size settings in their browsers.
    In some browsers, the words will be bigger than the
    background image.
    In others, the words will be small and you'll only see part
    of the
    background.
    The free tutorial I sent you is just that, a tutorial.
    You do the work, you have the copyright.
    If you are not interested in that one, here's another idea.
    You can use borders and simple background , like a gradient,
    to make a tab
    that looks just like your tab images and sizes along with
    your text...no
    matter how long the word is and no matter what size the text
    is.
    Here's the free tutorial.
    You don't even have to do the whole thing, just the first
    part where it
    shows you how to make links that look like image buttons.

  • How to create a map that is larger than the game in width and height?

    hi,
    i wounder how i can create a map(not the design) that is larger than the game in width and height, part of it will appear in the main page and anther part you can move to it after you press the arrow symbol, but the map is just one image so i want put it in line and out line the game page, and the out line part includes buttons and symbols the player can use, but it will be in line and the other part will be out line when you press the left arrow or the down arrow, how i can do that?
    and is that possible to animate it so when the player press the arrow, will give it action to start the animation in one sec, i know how to animate it if that possible but i don't know which code i will use for the mouse click with the arrow symbol, and how to use the same code in the same symbol to start anther animation depending on which part of the map is on?

    I don't know a lot about mask and masked layers and how to work with the normal layers beside i will use some 3D graphics but not in the background, i will explain all this to you to be more clearly.
    first i am using action script 3.0
    close ex,
    you have 2d map"image"  900*300 pixel.
    this image contains some 2d symbols when you click will go to anther normal map (anther normal layer) so they must appear.
    your game 320*320 px, and the place the map will show on 300*300, and there's basics objects will be in most pages including the page that show the map so i don't know a lot about how this will work with mask layers.
    so you can only see the left side of the map image and what it contains, while there's two arrows one to the left and one to the right there's three cases here,
    first when it show the left side(start from x:0 to x:300), the left arrow will not active when you press and the right arrow will start an animation that make the map image move to the mid side in one sec when you press.
    in mid side (start from x:301 to x:600) the same left arrow will active when you press to send you back to the left side while the same right arrow will be active to send you not to the mid side but to the right side,
    when moved to the right side the same left arrow will be active to send you to the mid and the right will not active when you press and depending on that,
    first how to make the large image appear with the three sides in the same place without effecting the other objects "like disappearing them" ?
    and the codes i need in the same left or right arrow symbol to make different actions with the same symbol when clicked depending on which part of the map is on.

  • Pdf in new window full width and height

    Hi i managed to create a new window and add a pdf to it :
    var pdf = new air.HTMLLoader();
    pdf.height = 600;
    pdf.width = 400;
    pdf.load(request);
    mywin = window.open("",
    "pdfWindow","height=600,width=400,top=10,left=10");
    mywin.nativeWindow.stage.addChild(pdf)
    But i would like to make the pdf scale to the width and
    height of the window , i tried width = '100%' but then it doesn't
    show a pdf
    for the current result see :
    Screen

    Okay i created a test :
    var pdf = new air.HTMLLoader();
    pdf.height = 600;
    pdf.width = 400;
    pdf.load(request);
    mywin = window.open("",
    "pdfWindow","height=700,width=500,top=10,left=10");
    mywin.nativeWindow.stage.addChild(pdf)
    pdf.width = mywin.nativeWindow.stage.stageWidth
    pdf.height = mywin.nativeWindow.stage.stageheight
    But then the pdf doesn't show, i also think this wouldn't
    work on resize of the window ?
    Or is there a event that is triggered

  • Nested canvas in GridLayout can't get its width and height

    Hello,
    I have a class entitled DisplayCanvas, which will accept some parameters from an invocation in another class including a shape and message parameters. These parameters must be centered in the instance of DisplayCanvas.
    For some reason, when I use this.getWidth() and this.getHeight() within my DisplayCanvas class, I get 0 and 0! I need the width and height in order to center the parameters the user will enter.
    Why does the width and height result at 0? What can I do to get the width and height?

    Sorry for glossing over your code sample, particularly as it looks like one of the best I've seen so far on the forums, but I'm pretty sure the answer you are looking for is as follows:
    Java doesn't render a component until paint() is called so until then you are not going to have any size settings because the jvm simply doesn't know how big the visual component is. This makes sense when you think about what the jvm is doing. The layout manager controls the display of the components depending on the settings it is supplied. So until it knows how many components you want, where, what kind of spacing, etc, etc, etc, how can the size be determined.
    The true cycle of events is therefore:
    create an instance of DisplayCanvas,
    add it to your container,
    make the container visible (which renders the component),
    get the size of the DisplayCanvas instance.
    You are being hampered because your desired chain of events is:
    create an instance of DisplayCanvas,
    get the size of the DisplayCanvas instance,
    add it to your container,
    make the container visible.
    This state of affairs is highly annoying and then leads to the next question "what do we do about that?". There is a cunning trick which is to get the jvm to render the component to an off-screen image, thus calculating the dimensions of the component so that you can do precisely the kind of enquiry on the object that you have been looking for. It should be noted that this may not be the visual size for all the reasons given above, but it is the "preferred size" for the component. Check the Swing tutorials and have a look at the section on Layout Managers for a run down on what that means.
    Anyway, we can use this handy code sample to determine the preferred size for your component. Notice the call to "paint()" (normally you would never make a direct call to paint() in swing) and the "g.dispose()" to free resources:
    package com.coda.swing.desktool.gui;
    import java.awt.Component;
    import java.awt.Dimension;
    import java.awt.Graphics2D;
    import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
    public class PaintUtil
         public PaintUtil()
              super();
         public static Component paintBuffer(Component comp)
              Dimension size = comp.getPreferredSize();
              comp.setSize(size);
              BufferedImage img = new BufferedImage(size.width, size.height, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
              Graphics2D g2 = img.createGraphics();
              comp.paint(g2);
              g2.dispose();
              return comp;
    }Before you make a call to getWidth() or getHeight() put in a call to "PaintUtil.paintBuffer(this);" and see what happens.
    By the way, I can't claim credit for this code ... and I really wish I could remember where I got it from myself so I can thank them :)

  • Change the width and height of Landscape Layout for a report in 10G

    Hi,
    I'm new to reports and when i built the report in report builder 10g, the layout orientation was 'Landscape', hence I assumed that it'll be a landscape layout.
    However, the width and height fields of the main section are 11 and 20 respectively. However, the height should ideally be 8.5. When i try to change it I get the following error message :
    Layout canvas must remain large enough to fit layout objects.
    Could you please tell me how to change the height of this landscape layout to 8.5 from 20.
    The report has several main frames within a repeating frame, since the same report has to run multiple times.
    Is it possible to have a repeating page across pages (crossing the horizontal margin) and hence have some of the main frames move down to the next page. I'm trying to do this to then be able to reduce the height of the main section of the report to 8.5. Its not working though because I'm getting the following error :
    REP 1814 : Report cannot be formatted. Object "vertically" can never fit R_Main (the name of the repeating frame enclosing all objects)
    Thanks,
    Priyanka

    To reduce the Hieght, first make the layout design fit into the new value..

  • Scripting TGetProperty width and height

    Hello all,
    i have a problem with the flash player in IE6 and FF2.
    I have a html page with some flash movie elements on it.
    I'm using SWFObject to bind the movies in.
    After the onload event is fired, for each flash movie the
    javascript function setCorrectSize4Flash will be called to resize
    the html container element (embed, object tag) automatically by the
    given width and height of the flash movie.
    Therefore i'm checking if the movie is completely loaded and
    if width and height is not undefined.
    So if i'm getting width and height, i'm resizing the
    container element to best fit in.
    My problem is now, that the same movie used several times in
    the same html page has every time different width and height
    values. Sometimes the aspect ratio is 1:2 and sometimes it's 2:1.
    Is this a problem of the flash player plugin or am i doing
    something wrong.
    Best regards,
    bartmark

    Thank you for your answer. But I don't understand:
    The question is not the margin. I put in the body margin: 0; padding:0; and there is no margin.
    I want to know the viewport:   the width and height with the iPad in horizontal position and without the address bar.
    This does not coincide with the 1024 x 768. (nor the 946 x 768 if I rest the address bar).  I don't understand why
    Thank you

  • The crawled property of Image width and height - is there a differnce when the image is png format?

    Hi,
    We are indexing file share with images and get the properties of Image Width, Image Height, Image Size (we show it as refiners in SharePoint after make it managed properties). Somehow when the picture is png format - we see only Size but not height and width.
    Is that any setting that should be done in the file share (when i select an image in the windows explorer window i can see all its properties, and it seems that png files do expose the width and height properties
    keren tsur

    Hi  Keren,
    According to your description, my understanding is that when you tried to  crawl file share with images, the ows_ImageWidth and ows_ImageHeight crawled property for PNG  file could not be generated.
    For your issue, I can reproduce your issue in my SharePoint 2013 environment. For a workaround, you can upload the PNG images into SharePoint images Library and they would work fine.

  • Flex 4 Premium reference to the Stage issue! width and height seem to be switched??

    So I am doing a very basic resize effect with a panel, but if I want it to fill the screen, I have to switch stage.stageWidth and stage.stageHeight. I have also traced them out and they come out as switched values. Anyone else having this issue?
    protected function panel1_addedToStageHandler(event:Event):void
          trace(stage.stageWidth, " " , stage.stageHeight);

    Hi,
    You maybe running into some sort of layout constraint also it depends on how you are initiating the animation, if you are doing it on startup you need to wait for creationComplete to ensure all your dimensions have been calculated for the browser. You shouldn't need to use stage dimensions either. The following code resizes a panel to fill the browser. (note using top/left/bottom/right is a lot smoother than width and height).

  • How to set field width and height at runtime programatically?

    Hi all,
    I want to set the width and height of a report field by reading its values from the database table.
    Is it possible in Oracle reports?
    How to achieve this in Oracle reports 10g?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks .... Best Regards
    Bilal

    You cannot give it a specific value. During design you can set Horizontal and Vertical Elasticity properties to Variable, so the items are automatically scaled when running the report.
