Canvas Resize in 'MP 1.3.1 /

[Gerald_Ire]

Hello my dear XnView'ers

Checking the "Canvas Resize" option for company I found out it takes the content of "ResizePreset.txt" - thats cool

Taking one number from "Presets" shows Canvas option "Position" is always "Top left" for the the image. But we need Canvas around with image centered...

When changing this "Position" to "Center" and save it under the same name I'll get a new entry in the Canvas-Presets with same name.
The ResizePreset.txt stays the same... so far so good..

Q.1: where does this new Canvas Preset gets saved? Coudnt find it in xnview.ini..
Q.2: would it be nice to save this in an "CanvasPreset.xml" - maybe?

Not sure if "overwriting the ResizePreset.txt" instead would be pos or any good...

Found a solution in two steps:

1) "Resize image" to max length (width or heigth -depense on image size) to special px size (sample height 1080 px)
2) use "Canvas Resize" and ad color left & righ or up & below. Sample 1920 x 1080 px

sample: 1920 x 1080 px

Can I do this in one step - only with option "Canvas Resize"?
I think there is an option from "Resize" missing to do so: "Resample / Longest side/Shortest side"

What do you think, is it poss to do this in one step... ?
