Any advanced image-editing modules?
nmss - July 31, 2009 - 15:41
I would like to be able to specify manually the exact part of an image that will appear when I'm creating a node with an image. In a more Photoshop sort of way than ImageAPI/field/cache does.
i.e. If I have a 200x200 Image Field and a 1000x1000 image to upload, I want to be able to manually resize it and move it around to fit the 200x200 space myself.
Are there such modules that can this?
Imagefield Crop
Hi,
Sounds like http://drupal.org/project/imagefield_crop might do the trick - you can crop manually, and then use imagecache to produce different sizes if you need them. The original, uncropped, image is retained if you want to use that as well.
THANKS!
EXACTLY what I was looking for, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PHWOAR!
Problems I find with this
Problems I find with this module:
Imagecache provides thumbnail, node and full views for images but ImageCrop seems to crop all views.
Is there any way to make ImageCrop apply to these different views specifically?

Cropping Different Views
Hi,
Ermm, not directly, I don't think, but imagefield_crop does keep the original, uncropped image, so you can, for example, have a cropped thumbnail link to a full image - I think the UI now allows this. If you need to resize the cropped, or the uncropped, image you could push them through an imagecache preset in the theme layer.
How would I go about doing
How would I go about doing this? I'm used to using Image "teaser" and "node/full" modes in CCK.

Resizing imagefield_crop images
Hi,
Well, you'll need to dive into the theme layer a bit... but basically, if you know the path to your source image, you call it through one of your imagecache presets, which will create the new, resized image if it doesn't exist already.
