Hey, I just checked and you account for almost 50% of the karma I've received to date. Now, I know WHO I have to keep happy! 
p.s. Audrey, any requests? (you're at the front of the line...) |
hmm, well i think i'm going to stop giving you karma, because i see you now have 1111 points and that *must* be a lucky number !
i'm glad i can help out with testing and theory, it seems like the least i can do, since i have no programming skills at all (i'm sure you've noticed that
)
since you ask, i *do* have a sort of question possibly a request concerning the images (next time i'm sure you won't say anything !)...
i tried out v9.2 on a Jane Austen file with fullscreen images and i was *amazed* to see the conversion can actually calculate the white margins to add to the images,
and add them, to match the perfect ratio !!
well my first question is,
*how did you do that ???* really, can you explain (in small, not too technical words, if possible...) ? i would never have thought it was possible. it's really brilliant.
the only little thing is... i see you made the images the full size of the 1200 screen. i understand why you did this : it's the simplest way, you can use only one set of images for both devices then, because the 1200 screen is proportionately wider than the 1150 so you are sure the re-scaled images will fit. however, these images are then *smaller* than necessary on the 1150 screen, and there is an empty space at the bottom of the screen. it seems to be a shame to me, since the 1150 display is already smaller than the 1200, not to use it completely (and, maybe i'm biased because i have a 1150 not a 1200
).
so, would it be at all possible,
to choose which screen size to reformat the images to in the options, like if you only want to make an 1150 format ??
if yes, would it then be possible to automatically add extra (coded) side margins (2 em right and left seems to work) to these images, if the 1200 version is generated at the same time ?
if it's not possible, then obviously it's not too important, i can continue to reformat the images using my batch treatment in photoshop if i want to optimize for the 1150, and add the margins by hand if i want to make a 1200 version. but, since we've come this far, i thought i might as well ask...
anyway, i really love this tool, and i really appreciate all the work you put into it. so thanks again !
