Extended Options on Batch rotate

Post by Powerprobot »

Hi,
I need extended option on Batch-Rotate.

-> Option : Turn to longer side left
-> Option : Turn to longer side right

-> Option : Turn to short side left
-> Option : Turn to short side right

I have an SONY WALKMAN with picture function, so i have pictures with format that is higher than width. If i converted, i will have a maxium quality with no borders. I will automatic rotate on longer side and then resize to 320x240.

I think it will be possible easy to made these options in Dialog.

Thanks, have a nice Day.

If I understand correctly, I think there is a workaround:
1. Batch process all your images with 'Resize' 320x240 and check 'Follow orientation'
2. Select landscape images (use sort by Properties) and rotate them (JPEG lossless rotation)

You should have all your images 320x240 maximized for portrait without border in 2 almost automatic processing.

Does it help?

YES! Great! I didn't think about "Sort by Orientation" :D

Here are my new Workprocess:
Batch:
- "Resize" 320x240 pixel, Keep Ratio, Follow Orientation, Resize Lanczos
- "Resize Canvas" 320 x240 pixel, Follow Orientation

On Browser:
View Thumbnails, Sort by Orientation
Select Images with Shift and lossless-Rotate.
Done!

It is a little bit more work, but it is a fine way to work with existing options.

Thanxs
