[0.68] Image > Canvas resize... bug?

[cday]

Changing the 'Resolution' seems to have no effect on the resolution, print size or pixel size...

And shouldn't 'Resolution' be 'DPI' for consistency with other menus?

You lost me here.

Where do you find the 'Resolution' above? I cannot find it in Canvas Resize dialog. Can you post a screenshot and indicate where it is?

That's the dialog brought up by Image > Canvas resize...

As in a number of other XnView dialogs, the title is different from the name of the function selected.

It seems that I didn't saw it because of my nose. Sorry for that.

Yes, it seems that it is a dead thing. The dialog need fixing:

1. to set in the memory representation of the file the actual DPI number
2. to change/fix the labels as well as window's title

if you change the resolution, the Width/Height print size is changed too!

Not for me yesterday, or for m.Th this morning: possibly a sequence issue??

Pierre, the problem is that the these changes aren't saved.

"Print Size" doesn't mean anything if the document isn't printed.

Let's take it step by step:

1. Open a photo. The status bar says:

5796x3870x48 pixels. (and 1.50 - btw what "1.50" is?)

And after that

204.46x136.52 cm

2. Go to Image | Canvas Resize. The dialog says:

Canvas.jpg (20.85 KiB) Viewed 1005 times

Note that the print size is slightly different but let's pass it for now.

3. Change the DPI to 1000 (or any other big value to see the difference). The dialog works ok till here.

4. Press Ok.

Expected: The status bar should be correctly updated (is updated, but with the old DPI value) and at the next run of the Image | Canvas Resize dialog the DPI / print size should show the updated values (1000 DPI etc.)

Actual: The old values are shown.

It's the aspect ratio (-:

...and... HOW. COULD. I. FIGURE. THIS. OUT?!?

A humble request: ...perhaps a tooltip over there would help? <big sheepish grin>

PS: Thanks a lot for the info!

Actual: The old values are shown.

So it's only the update of status bar not a bug in canvas resize, right??

No (unfortunately). Because when we re-open the dialog the old DPI value is (still) shown.
