vi Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 i have a container field that holds a JPG image (reference or actual import, does not matter to me). Is there any way to get the size of the image (e.g. 640x480) from that container field, or is there another way to approach it? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_vodka Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 GetValue ( GetAsText ( yourContainer ); 1 ) will give you the dimension when the image in referenced in a container. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vi Posted June 21, 2008 Author Share Posted June 21, 2008 ok so i created a calculation field with your calc in it - i tried the result as number, text and container and I always got this: image:/C:/Users/Admin/Desktop/photos/photos053.JPG not the size right now all my images in the containers are only referenced, but if i read your post correctly then that should work? right? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_vodka Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 You need to have used Insert Picture, not Insert File. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vi Posted June 21, 2008 Author Share Posted June 21, 2008 (edited) I tried it with one image, it still gives me the file name as a result, this time just without the path. The 'insert picture' would not work for me, since the images (10000+) are already in the database - got there via a folder import. I think I found a plugin - Troi File - I'll give it a try.

mr_vodka Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Well reinserting them with Insert Image for 10K images wouldnt be that bad since you could write a loop to handle it. Again you need to Insert the image using 'Insert Picture' with the 'store only reference' box CHECKED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_vodka Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 BTW I am a big fan of Troi's plugins. However, in this case I dont really think that you need to use one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vi Posted June 21, 2008 Author Share Posted June 21, 2008 OK - I got that working now thanks.... - size:1536,1009 the image size is 2048x1346... just wondering why it is off by a factor of 1.33333....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
