Hello. Wondering if folks have ideas with a SuperContainer issue. We have recently updated to version 2.832 (client and server) from 2.7* and a behavior changes is noted.

Specifically, we have a 'Brands' database that holds images of the 22,000 animal (cattle mostly) brands in the state. The technical requirements are:

Images that are imported/exported into/from the Brands database must be sized and formatted to meet the following criteria...

* 150x150 pixels

* 72 DPI

* JPG format

* No larger than 8KB in file size

This was being accomplished by specifying width, height and resolution in the appropriate SC function. e.g.

SCGetContainer ( folderPath {; width ; height ; resolution ; page} )

The issue is that the images are NOT being stored in the required format. Nor on export are they being sized. They are the original, scanned dimensions (often multi MB in size).

This seems to no longer work. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround?

SC installed on the FileMaker Advanced Server (11.03.x) on Mac OS X 10.6.8 the client(s) are Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) with all OS updates including Java.

Reelist--

Unfortunately I am unaware of any such issue... the setting of the width, height, and resolution parameters should work as expected in the version of SuperContainer that you have installed. However, to be on the safe side, I suggest that you upgrade your version of SuperContainer to its latest release -- 2.852. This version resolves several bugs and issues that have been encountered and may resolve your issue.

If you are unable to get image files at the desired 150x150px after upgrading, then I will be happy to look into this issue with you further and help track down the culprit.

P.s. I'm curious... when a resolution is NOT given, are your images scaled to the desired 150 x 150 px dimensions that are set? Or no?

Looking forward to hearing back from you,

Thanks ooparah. We'll do that and get back to you. reelist
