The transform machinery works with arbitrary transformations, while the ANTIALIAS machinery only works for rectangle-to-rectangle mappings. I guess this could be special-cased for the EXTENT transform, or, perhaps better, resize could be made a bit more clever it preceeded by a crop, but in the current release, you have to do it in two steps. (if you're primarily working from JPEG images on disk, it's probably most efficient to do thumbnail followed by crop. For other formats/sizes, doing it the other way around might be more efficient.) </F> _______________________________________________ Image-SIG maillist - Image-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/image-sig
