Resize bug

Post by Troken »

Hey folks,

I found something that might be a bug, I consider it a serious one. Hopefully, it is easy to fix.

1. Open an image.
2. Open resize-dialog (Shift+S)
3. Let "Keep ratio" be checked. Screen size values shown as pixels, print size values as percent.
4. Change the print size-value (percentage) by clicking the "up" arrow, to the right of the width value (100% -> 101%). The pixel width is increasing (as it should).
5. OK, now for the bug. Click the arrow again. OPS! The pixelvalue is NOT changing. Why?

- You can try the same by clicking the "down" arrow, the same will happen. And the same if you change hight by clicking up or down-arrows.
- The other way around though, adjusting size by clicking width/height arrows up/down in the screen size-field, is working correctly. Strange, huh?
- Further on, some images get really wacko values when I click up-arrow. For instance, I opened an image and clicked up the precentage to get width 101%/height 101%. Instead I got 101%/60.834% Wow! Now thats not right, is it?
- So, my conclusion is that the resize-function has some issues to fix. Well, anyway, thats what happens on my computer, can somebody please check if the same happens to you?

PS Why is there no linking-function (as in photoshop etc) so you can link the values togheter and i.e. change the resolution, and the print size values will adapt, thus not change the actual pixel-values?

Right, some % issues to fix. Also, when changing screen size display from pixels to %, the dialog needs to be restarted for it to work properly. Otherwise an intended change from 100% to 99% with arrow will result in showing pixels instead.
