archetypes.clippingimage 2.1

Introduction

Archtypes default ImageField scales down the image until the whole image fits into the given scale. It keeps it aspect ratio. I.e. scaling down a 400x300 image to a 200x200 scale result in a 200x150 image.

Same with ClippingImageField results in a 200x200 image! It centers the image horizontal or vertical and tries to keep as much as possible from the original.

Tested with Plone 3.3.x and Plone 4.

Usage:

ImageField('image',
    sizes= {'large'   : (768, 768),
            'preview' : (400, 400),
            'listing' :  (16, 16),
            },
    crop_scales = ['listing'],
    ...
