Function to retrieve dimensions of a bmp/png/jpg image

Post by bossydog9 » Tue Jan 21, 2020 3:22 pm

Hi,
Is there a function that returns the dimensions (width & height) of a bmp/png/jpg image? e.g.

Code: Select all

GetImageDimensions>image_filename,width,height

I haven't had to do this before and I'm not sure, but if there's a way of accessing the metadata of the image you can read the dimensions from there. (Right click > Properties > Details tab > Dimensions | on WIN7)

While there is not a specific function to do that, JRL managed to come up with quite an ingenious way of doing it on this thread.
Yes, we have a Custom Scripting Service. Message me or go here

Thanks, Dorian & JLT, the very same thought went through my head when I saw the AutoSize property in the Dialog Designer. Cheers.
