How to keep the ratio of an image?

[johanco123]

Hi Bruce

I am using a image control on a form. I want to set the Image Height to '250' and leave the Image Width blank or ''. How can i keep the aspect ratio of the image to display the correct width.

Hi Johan That should do it. Normally if you nominate height or width and leave the other blank the aspect ratio will stay the same

Hi Bruce

Any suggestions how to get the aspect ratio sorted out on an image control. It is the same with the display control.

hi Johan,

there's a bit of code doing that in the netweb.clw in the CreateImage method;

  if loc:height and not loc:width then loc:width = loc:height.   
  if loc:width and not loc:height then loc:height = loc:width.

you can comment out this code - I don't think it's needed. I've commented it out for the 8.42 build.

cheers
Bruce
