Title: Specifying one dimension
Post by: PH Focal-Scape on July 17, 2009, 04:46:15 AM
Hello again Mike et al,

On the Special Sizes pane, I can't get the "Specify One Dimension" to work properly.

I have an A3+ page in portrait orientation and a long landscape image loaded (automatically turned 90o).

I specify the long size (actually width of the panorama and well within the page length dimension) and choose the LONG option. A warning reports that image will span more than one one page (same response if I wrongly say it is the SHORT side).

I'm wondering if the programme code is not taking into account that the image has been automatically rotated?

Thanks for any comment or help.


PETER

If you answer YES to the warning about spanning more than on page, it works  ???

Thanks Terry,

I just checked it and you are correct!

During previous attempts it has definitely gone across two pages upon answering "yes". Tried to reproduce the problem with the single landscape image I'm currently on, but couldn't. I didn't answer "yes" before I wrote my original post because of my previous experience.

When I tried the same thing with an image in a job comprising 15 images (with floating text), each on separate pages, the problem occurred  .... repeatedly. I'm almost certain I was working on that series when I first experienced the problem.

Something quirky about the series?
