Hi Guys,
I believe I have requested this a few times already and I hoped I will see it in 9.2. Since I don't see it yet (or at least it has not been documented if it has been added) I will add the request again.
When you resize images using the GetImage.ashx option, there are a few useful options but also a missing one (at leats in my opinion). The option to create the image to the specifiez size and fill the canvas with a specific color. For example, If my resize call has a different aspect than the image I am resizing. The options I have are Fill (resize the image to fill completely the canvas I have asked for) which in some cases would mean zoom in the image and affect the quality, or Fit the image.
I definitely feel the need to have a final image of my specified size, with a background color I can specify. For example a new Crop option (7) plus a background color(#000000) would mean:
Create a canvas of size {width} and {height}, give it a color {color} and fit the image on it (vertical center, horizontal center).
I know, in the past, I have been suggested to build another processor on my own, but I feel this option should come from the platform as a native option and not as a custom one.
Fitting an image horizontal and vertical in a responsive world and doing it cross-browser it's difficul enough. Having this option could save a lot of time.
Thank you,
Adrian
