Hi there,

The "edit metadata window" has the nice function to generate a cover image from the first page of an ebook by pressing the corresponding button in the rigth upper corner of the window.

When I use this function, the resulting cover image always has the size 1240 x 1752 px.

Is there a way to change this size? So far, I couldn't find a way to change it.

Just in case, if this is currently not possible:

The "edit metadata window" has another function for generating a cover from template styles using the "Generate cover"-button. This function provides the option to set the resolution of the cover to be generated. So my suggestion would be to use the resolution set in this function when generating a cover from the first page of an epub.
