Resize an Image

[AJJ]

are there any really simple scripts that i are around that will simply resize an image - you put one in, it resizes it and you take it out?

[BrettF]

I can think of a few ways.

ImageMagick

GDI+

All you now need to do is SEARCH for it. Not too complicated If you've got nearly 40 posts already, I thought you would be able to work that out before you posted...

i did find a couple of scripts but the code didnt work for some reason, i think it wasnt finished. i have no ideas about the coding myself, (im a designer) but knew the system is quite dynamic and probably there would be something to do the job.

so does anyone know of a good code that i can put into autoit so i can compile it and give it to someone who doesnt even know how to use paint! lol

Use FreeImage library.

I made some UDFs for FreeImage: FreeImage Libvrary

Example:

#include <FreeImage.au3>

_FreeImage_LoadDLL(@ScriptDir&"\FreeImage.dll")
_FreeImage_Initialise()

$sFile = "800x600.jpg"
; new sizes
$width = 400
$height = 300

$FIF = _FreeImage_GetFileTypeU($sFile)
If $FIF = $FIF_UNKNOWN Then
    $FIF = _FreeImage_GetFIFFromFilenameU($sFile)
EndIf
$hImage = _FreeImage_LoadU($FIF, $sFile)

$hImageResized = _FreeImage_Rescale($hImage, $width, $height, $FILTER_LANCZOS3)
$dot = StringInStr($sFile,".",1,-1)
$Name = StringLeft($sFile,$dot-1)
$Ext = StringMid($sFile,$dot)
_FreeImage_SaveU($FIF, $hImageResized, $Name &"_rsz"&$Ext)
_FreeImage_Unload($hImage)
_FreeImage_Unload($hImageResized)

_FreeImage_DeInitialise()

ProgAndy, I have no words. It is excellent! I have long wanted to make a UDF for FreeImage, but not proceeded with the case... Of course, I have not tested your UDF, but in the near future be sure to do so. x8 thanks to you, ProgAndy. Well done.

EDIT: Maestro, I think you need to place this UDF in Example Scripts section. I will be happy to give you 5 stars.
