How do you scale/fit an image? - rakibtg - 06-22-2015
CI3 Image Manipulation library can resize() or crop() image, but it would be great if it had a method to scale an image like scale()!
I need to scale an image, for example what ever the image size is i would like to resize it to 200x200.
To achieve that i have this code, but it still doesn't resize all the images in 200x200 size again i want to scale the image!
PHP Code:
$img_properties = [
'image_library' => 'gd2',
'source_image' => $image,
'create_thumb' => false,
'maintain_ratio' => true,
'width' => 200,
'height' => 200,
'master_dim' => 'auto'
];
$this->load->library('image_lib', $img_properties);
$this->image_lib->resize();
What would be the idea in this case?
Thanks and wish you a great day

create_thumb is probably what you want then

Thanks, but enabling ''create_thumb' => true'' didn't scale the image :/ it generates a 146x200 image., any other idea?

It seems it did scale it according to your settings? if you want it 200x200 then turn off maintain_ratio but it will then probably distort/stretch the image. If you want 200x200 with NO distortion than I don't think the image library can do that on its own. You'd need one step more and take the 146x200, create a new blank 200x200 image and center the 146x200 within that and save it.
Why does it have to be exactly 200x200? Can't you just create a 200x200px div and center the image in that? Basically same end result but don't need to process the image further.
