March 12, 201411 yr Something we've noticed. Upload a JPG Image to Super Container SC stores and delivers as JPG with RawData URL When specifying width and height dimensions it then renames the file to "file_jpg.png" and is a png Is there anyway to keep the original file format? This seems to be new behavior. We just recently upgraded to SC 2.896. I can reproduce this in the chrome browser so it's not a FileMaker issue.
March 31, 201411 yr For a RawData URL, SuperContainer will return the original image with its original dimensions, but when you set a width and height, you are telling SuperContainer to shape the image into a certain size. SuperContainer server responds by creating a thumbnail of the image with the specified dimensions, and when SuperContainer creates a thumbnail, it creates a .png file. This is just the method we use to generate the thumbnail. We could probably do a better job with the filename though. Having a file named "X_jpg.png" isn't very nice looking.
