Bug: multimedia picture resize

Post by Davo » 28 Jul 2004 11:39

Just a small bug, and one which I have only myself to blame.
One of the pictures I had linked to was stupidly large (both in terms of pixels and MB) so I decided to shrink it a bit. However, when I viewed the image again within FH I found that the link boxes went off the edge of the picture.
The box which was half-on, half-off the picture was recoverable. But the one which was now completely off the picture caused all sorts of visual corruption and could not be edited at all (I just deleted it and recreated it in the end).

I know it was a pretty silly thing to try to do, but is there any chance that the scenario could be handled a little more gracefully?

FH, stores the position of the boxes on the pictures using the pixel offset.

You should have been able to click on the boxes and move them to the correct places.

I will flag this one to Calico and see what they say.

Thanks for letting me know.  I've added it to the ToDo list.
