similar to: Explorer Thumbnails

Programs with special uncommon file formats (not jpg) often register a shell extension in Explorer that offers thumbnails for these files (since the files otherwise wouldn't have previews). When I trigger in a Wine application (eg. SketchUp) the File Open dialog, I can see previews of the files (skp files) in the preview panel. This means the shell extension does work in Wine. The Shell

howdy! I had the problem that attachment_fu didn''t make a thumbnail, but everything else worked. I read this post http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/104213 and added a parent_id column. now I get the following error when I trie to add a photo: undefined method `find_or_initialize_by_thumbnail_and_parent_id'' for Photo:Class my code is: class Photo < ActiveRecord::Base

I have a requirement that can''t be that outrageous.... I want to be able to upload an image, and have multiple thumbnails be created for each. Then, I want to post process each image (the main image plus the thumbnails) to add borders. The trick is that the borders need to be different for each image. I thought I could use the after_resize handler, but when I try to add a border to

I''m trying to modify product images when a user marks a product as "sold" and I am able to modify the original image file successfully, but when I try to reprocess the thumbnails, my ImageMagick modifications don''t stick. Here is what I''ve got going so far: def before_save if self.sold_changed? && self.sold? for photo in self.photos

Hello, Iam providing access to many images on a share to windows users from my linux samba over the internet. The problem is that I need thumbnail viewing because of the nature of this library and thumbnails take to much time to load it seems as though it is actually loading the entire image to then display the small thumbnail. Is this true? Also isnt there some kind of caching that can be

I see that the SVN version of the excellent file_column plug-in can create thumbnails using the url_for_image_column helper. This uses Rmagick to create the thumbnail... Quick question... Let''s say the file is a TIFF image - can the helper create a JPG version of the thumbnail for display in the browser? Curious if the plug-in can handle that transform with some creative use of the

I have this code in a controller that returns images to my browser...with ROR. def index @products = Product.find_all_ pictures end ....this is the .rhtml.. <% for photo in @pic -%> <div class="entry"> <img src="<%= photo.image_url %>"/> <h3><%= h(photo.title) %></h3> <%= photo.description %>

I followed the instructions on Mike Clark''s weblog and everything works perfectly except the thumbnail column in my DB is alwas NULL. I''m using S3 as my storage system.

Hello guys, I am building a photo website and I have some questions before I really start programming the site. My system will be Debian + lighttpd + mysql +fastcgi + ImageMagick I plan to use file_column for image handling/verification and thumbnail creation.

I''ve got a bunch of dynamically generated link paths that I want to use to link some dynamically-generated image paths. Specifically, I want to link thumbnails in a gallery to the larger images. But I''m stymied by Rails'' syntax. I can''t figure out how to do this. I tried this: <%= link_to(image_tag("../../images/photos/photo.photogroup/TN_

I have a model using attachment_fu (via has_attachment) and I''m creating thumbnails for the attached images. I have an extra field ''foo'' that I''m validating on create with validates_presence_of :foo. One problem arises when I upload an image: The ''foo'' is not propogating down to the thumbnails. What should I put in my model to grab the

I''m using Attachment_Fu to save several thumbnails of a photo (resizing with ImageMagick) But when I try to crop them, nothing seems to happen to the file I want to drop and no error messages. I check the file timestamp of the thumbnail I want to crop and it looks updated. What''s strange is that ALL the other thumbnails and the original image''s file timestamps are

Hi, I''m brand new to RMagick (and pretty new to Rails for that matter!). Right now, site owners are allowed to upload product and ingredient photos to the website. Everything works great, ingredients are sized down and proportioned correctly...the problem is that the resulting images are so blurry! So I''ve been doing some research and it looks like Paperclip::Processor may be the

I just installed attachment_fu and for some reason, it seems to be looking in the wrong location for my images. I have a Product model that belongs to a photo model. the photo model has the attachment_fu installed and configured like so: class Photo < ActiveRecord::Base has_attachment :content_type => :image, #Allow standard image formats :path_prefix

Hi, 1. How to resize an image uploaded by a web form before saving it to the disk? (i need all uploaded images to have similar size) 2. How to create thumbnails? Is it enough if i specify small size of the image in html or would the image look horrible? Can i do it somehow in ''realtime'' using javascript? Or is it best to create thumbnail as a separate file? 3. How to get

Dear list, This is a copy of a mail sent to Max Kuhn, original author and maintainer of the odfWeave package, which seems not to have received it. It reports a problem that seems to be very implementation specific (reproductible on three Debian testing amd64 machine, does *not* happen on two i686 Debian testing systems, does *not* happen on an Ubuntu 11.06 amd64 machine) and therefore not
