ImageScales Description

Patches ATImage to allows per site image scales ImageScales is a Python library that applies a simple patch to the schema used for ATImage to allow specification of image scales on a site-by-site basis. It should work with Plone 2.5 and 3.x. For Plone 3.x, you may wish to use plone.app.imaging instead.InstallationInstall ImageScales by adding "Products.ImageScales" to your buildout eggs list.It's also possible to extract the "ImageScales" directory in ImageScales/Products and putting it in an old-style Zope Products directory.ImageScales will not show up in your Plone add/remove products configlet as it needs no special installation.How it worksOnce the ImageScales patch is in place, getAvailableSizes method calls will be routed through a method installed on startup. This method will look for a portal_properties property sheet named imaging_properties. If it finds it, it will read the lines property allowed_sizes to get a list of sizes. If either the special property sheet or property are not found, the original ATImage scales will be used.Configuring Site ScalesCreate in portal_properties a plone property sheet named imaging_properties. Create in that property sheet a lines property with the id "allowed_sizes".Sizes should contain a list of lines. Each line is a scale specification. Each specification should have the format:id horizontal_pixels:vertical_pixelsFor example, to recreate the standard ATImage scales, the property would read:large 768:768preview 400:400mini 200:200thumb 128:128tile 64:64icon 32:32listing 16:16If you're using ImageScales with a theme product that has a GS profile, you can create the property sheet with a property_tools.xml specification like:< ?xml version="1.0"? >< object name="portal_properties" meta_type="Plone Properties Tool" > < object name="imaging_properties" meta_type="Plone Property Sheet" > < property name="title" >Image Scales for ATImage< /property > < property name="allowed_sizes" type="lines" > < element value="large 768:768"/ > < element value="preview 400:400"/ > < element value="mini 200:200"/ > < element value="thumb 128:128"/ > < element value="tile 64:64"/ > < element value="icon 32:32"/ > < element value="listing 16:16"/ > < /property > < /object >< /object >However you build your property sheet, you'll need to use the portal_atct tool to rebuild image scales in existing images any time you make a change.
