I need some help. I am using galleries with a single thumbnail. Now the issue is that I want this single thumbnail to be cut out of the original image with a different proportion, not just simply resized. Right now the thumbnail is the image, which does not work unless i can request that the first image not be displayed in the gallery folder.

www.brio54-labs.com/index.php/images.html

I found the code in the sigpro_engine.php file.

// cut image if specified by user
   if ($this->cut_x > 0) $orig_x = min($this->cut_x, $orig_x);
   if ($this->cut_y > 0) $orig_y = min($this->cut_y, $orig_y);

Thanks,

Gernot

or is there any way not to display the thumbnail image in the image gallery ?

upgraded to 2.5 and used the viewport without scaling the image. This did the trick, issue resolved.

Well, it sort of works, but not really. The result depends on the w/h ratio difference between the source image & the thumbnail:

see example: www.brio54-labs.com/index.php/images.html

(the rendering gallery thumbnail got seriously resized because the ratios are too close.)

Is there no quick way to change the code under [ // calculate the dimensions of the thumbnail ] so the thumbnail is just cropped out of the source image without resizing it? I am not too familiar with php yet, just crossing over from flash.

thanks,

Here is the fix that worked for me when the image/thumb have similar proportions:

EXAMPLE:
www.brio54-labs.com/index.php/images.html

CODE EDIT:
file: sigpro.engine.php
line:259 (section wide containers, wide thumbs)

original code:
if ($width > $height) { $thumb_width = $thb_width; $thumb_height = ($thb_width*$height/$width);  }

modified code:
if ($width > $height) { $thumb_width = $thb_width*2; $thumb_height = ($thb_width*$height/$width)*2;  }


so long,

Where is the SIG PRO gallery in your site?

They are all single thumbnail galleries with modified css:
