Hello all. I'm trying to make sure any image included in an RSS feed is displayed at the proper size. I've found some images, such as netflix, store 300 dpi images, which when displayed (in a Growl notification) appear at about 24% of their "actual" size.
The example I'm working with is this: http://cdn-0.nflximg.com/us/boxshots/small/70057002.jpg The image displays correctly in Safari, in Preview, and in Path Finder. Only in Growl does it seem to have problems (where it appears at about 6x9 pixels) -- but the fact that it opens at 24% in Graphic Converter and shows 300 ppi (with 64x90 pixels) indicates that its not entirely a Growl problem -- the other apps are adjusting. Since I'm actually working in AppleScript Studio and am just passing parameters on to some custom C class to then pass to Growl, I tried Image Events first with just plain scaling but it looked horrible (as if it tried to scale the tiny image without the high res content). I've scoured google and tried a number of solutions trying to set the image size to the size of its bitmap representation, such as this, without luck (still looks tiny): NSImage *myImage = [NSImage alloc]; myImage = [myImage initWithContentsOfFile:aPath]; NSBitmapImageRep *rep = [[myImage representations] objectAtIndex:0]; int renderedWidth = [rep pixelsWide]; int renderedHeight = [rep pixelsHigh]; //[rep setSize:NSMakeSize(renderedWidth, renderedHeight)]; [myImage setSize:NSMakeSize(renderedWidth, renderedHeight)]; //[myImage addRepresentation:rep]; //[myImage removeRepresentation:[[myImage representations] objectAtIndex:0]]; (I've tried with and without the commented-out lines.) Ultimately I have to pass the TIFF representation to Growl, which I suspect further complicates this: iconData:[myImage TIFFRepresentation] I need a general solution where I can pass any image file path to this method and get the "right" image data to pass to Growl. I'm a cocoa newbie (going on week 2 here ;-) so image processing is pretty far over my head already but I'm catching on! I've posted about this at the Growl forums but have not found a resolution yet (though PH has been helpful) and would very much like to move on! http://forums.cocoaforge.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=16005&p=106701 _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
