Get external URL and resize within SC

[fraank]

Hi there,

I^m new to this forum and the Supercontainer as well. I hope that this question hasn^t been posted very often:

Is there an easy way to get a external image (for example http://www.foreignserver.com/image1.jpg) into the Supercontainer and resize it to a certain width and height ?

Thank you so much for a quick help,

Frank

You would use the SuperContainer companion plugin

SCSetContainer( folderPath; "http://www.foreignserver.com/image1.jpg" )

where folder path is the relative location of where to store this file in SuperContainer, could be something like "images/123"

then to get an image of a certain size you could use SCGetContainer( folderPath; 50; 50 ) this would return a 50X50 pixel preview image
