GWT - Getting the current size of an image - image

I use the GWT image class with a ClickHandler to trigger actions when specific areas of the image are clicked. In order to specify these areas, I use the image's dimensions. The problem occurs when you change the size of your browser window. While the image rescales nicely, the getWidth() and getHeight() methods still return the image's original size, not the size after rescaling.
Do you know a way to retrieve the current size of the image?

.getElement().getOffsetWidgth() ? and .getOffsetHeight().
I think thats what you need.
That will return the current size of the element in the Dom, including any decorations like borders in the CSS.

how to make a bitmap to fit to the static picture control of a property sheet?

I am having a property sheet and added three pages.In the first page I added a picture control and in the properties of that picture control for "Image" property I am setting a bitmap.And was able to load very successfully.But,the problem here I faced when I run my exe then I am getting bitmap on the page header(which is some kind of banner for the page.)But what I noticed is there is some gap between the banner bitmap and the frame edge (which is occurring at the right top corner). And when I ran my xxx.exe on a Japanese machine then I had observed like the sheet is somewhat stretched and banner bitmap is not stretched completely till the edge of the sheet (top right corner)for Instance if we take a dialog on load a bitmap on it then we can observe that it is entirely got stretched till the edge.
So how can we avoid this issue like whatever the operating system it is and whatever the resolution it might be that banner should get stretched till the edge of the sheet.The gap has to be removed.
I am not loading the bitmap dynamically (setting in the properties.)
Can anyone please help me ti achieve this
The reason you get different results on different systems is that dialogs and controls are sized using "dialog units" which are based on the average size of the font, rather than an absolute number of pixels.
By default a static image control will resize itself to the size of the bitmap it's displaying. So if the dialog itself ends up bigger than normal (because the font is physically bigger), the picture control will appear to have shrunk, leaving a gap.
You could try setting the SS_REALSIZECONTROL style on the static control. The normal behavior of the static control (when displaying a picture) is to resize itself to the size of the bitmap, however the SS_REALSIZECONTROL style overrides that behavior and instead causes the bitmap to be resized to the size of the control. However the results of that may be less than optimal (e.g. the aspect ratio will probably be wrong), so instead you may want to look into scaling the bitmap yourself.

Center image horizontally & vertically on page with % margins and be resizable with window

It seemed so simple just a day ago, but I can't figure it out:
How do I center an image on a page, giving it fixed % margins (10% on all sides) and still have it scale with the window on resize?
It's very important that the page and the image display well on all platforms, without scrollers (!).
The page itself is very simple and only contains the image (which on different versions of the page has different dimensions), and a bar on the top with a link to send it to another page.
The max size of the image would be 1500x1000px, no minimum size.
I wholeheartedly hope someone can help me out with this, thanks so much!
Best way to do that is using JavaScript. Get the window size, subscribe for window.onresize event and update the image size and position accordingly.
Using CSS only will NOT work, because any position properties depend on the container. In your case the container is the window, which will size itself based on the content. This creates a sort of circular dependency (window size depends on the image, the image size and position depend on the window size).
For information about getting the exact available window size in cross-browser way you could check this post: Get the size of the screen, current web page and browser window - haven't done that in a while to provide you with exact code.
Also note that you don't mention keeping the aspect ratio of the image. If it should not be maintained there is no way to do it HTML/CSS only, because all operations with them do maintain AR of images.

JavaFx image resizing

I have a borderPane with a menu top,a grid left and an image in the center.I want the image to have the same size as the center of the border because now the image goes over my grid.
I tried this:
imageView.fitWidthProperty().bind(box.widthProperty());
where imageView is the name for my image and box is the BorderPane object.Thank you.
See JavaFX Feature Request RT-21337 Add ImageViewPane and MediaViewPane controls which contains a code attachment for a sample ImageViewPane implementation which which will resize the ImageView it contains to the area available to the region. To get the behaviour required you might also need to implement computeMinWidth and computeMinHeight on the ImageViewPane so that they return zero rather than the minimum size of the Image.
now the image goes over my grid
This is because the minimum size of your image is currently larger than the available space of the center of your BorderPane:
BorderPane does not clip its content by default, so it is possible that childrens' bounds may extend outside its own bounds if a child's min size prevents it from being fit within it space.
Some potential alternatives to prevent the center content overflowing the border:
Manually set a clip on the center node to prevent it overflowing the borders.
Dynamically resize the ImageView as in the ImageViewPane sample linked above.
Place the ImageView in a ScrollPane.
Use the css -fx-background-image attributes to display and dynamcially resize your image rather than using an ImageView.
Set the center of the borderpane first before setting the border content, that way it will be rendered underneath the border content.
Use a different construct from a borderpane (e.g. a HBoxes, VBoxes, etc.) which don't overlap their nodes when the nodes are larger than the available display area.
I tried this: imageView.fitWidthProperty().bind(box.widthProperty());
My guess from the code provided is that this didn't work because the enclosing box of the image is a dynamically resizable pane of some sort, so the minimum width of the box is being determined by the width of the image and not vice versa.

TinyMCE prevent image resizing

I am adding an image to a TinyMCE editor using:
var params = {
src: filename,
title: "Attached image: " + filename,
width: 500
};
ed.execCommand("mceInsertContent", false, ed.dom.createHTML("img", params));
This insert the image correctly in the editor. However, when the user clicks on the image he has the ability of resizing it.
I would like to know if there is a way to:
Prevent the user to resize only in one direction (i.e. how do I keep a fixed aspect ratio for the image)
Completely prevent the user to resize the image
I found a (partial) answer, so I thought I will share it here.
Adding
'object_resizing' : false
In the editor config prevents the resizing.
Note that this is a feature of Mozilla only (e.g. Google Chrome does not allow you to resize the image).
I am still looking for a way of keeping aspect ratio in real time, but I do not know if that is really possible.
You can simply add this little plugin to tinyMCE, I used it and it works very well!
Here's the documentation: Link
You would need to implement a resize handler (for example a jQuery handler).
It might be helpfull to add attributes to your images to save its dimensions or to use one single setting holding the aspect ratio. For this you will adjust the tinymce configuration setting valid_elements to allow those attributes for images - otherwise tinymce would strip them out.
When resize gets fired you grab the new dimensions and adjust the dimensions according to the aspect ratio - eigther adjust using the new width or new heigth (the other value is needs to get corrected).
Example: images have an attribute aspectratio holding the aspect ration
You may place this code in thetinymce setup configuration parameter
setup : function(ed) {
ed.onInit.add(function(ed) {
$(ed.getBody()).find('img').resize( function(event){
$(event.target).css('width', parseInt ( event.target.width * this.aspectratio) );
});
});
}
Update:
I have created a tinymce fiddle to show an example to use with IE.

Handling size of image after orientation change WP7

I've got an Image with an overlay Canvas with some rectangles whose position is relative to image's size. The problem comes when I change the phone orientation, because image size changes (or at least, the renderization) but I can't manage to re-distribute the rectangles according to the new size, and the OrientationChanged event doesn't help me because it's fired before rendering the image (so all the rectangles go to (0,0))
Anyone can help me finding the correct event?
I'd either not use percentage widths or save them as exact values when first rendered/measured for one orientation. You can then adjust the dimensions relative to the orientation.
Update
If you can't get the exact values passed to you then you coudl load the image where teh user can't see it to measure it.
If you're getting the image and positions from an external source which always assumes a portrait orientation then why not just always display it as such in your app.
Finally got it!
The event I was looking for was the SizeChanged, I can't imagine how I didn't see it before...
