batch frame making ... size delta

Post by marsue »

Hello,

another topic for another issue, ... better for search engine !

So here are the settings:

I want to expand the canvas, say, by 1px on every side, and then by 5px on everyside. This is to make a very cool-looking frame.
At the moment i can only resize the canvas to a fixed px size :-( then I end up with a little 1x1 px, not what I want. and if I use the % I cannot control how many px are added if not all my pictures are not the same size (which is often the case, as I own different cameras ;-) ).
So could it be posible to have the "relative" enlarge canvas (as in photoshop) , so if center is chosen -canvas +2 +3 will add 2px on each horizontal sides, and 3 pix on each vertival sides ...

this would be definetly great ! for sure ...

Hello Pierre!
I have a need for this feature also... the frame around converted picture with certain pixels by horizontal and vertical side. I think it must be implemented in -canvas, how people are recommended above.
