Hi Ola,

 

Glad you enjoyed it. Unfortunately I too am suffering from the lack of
IsolatedStorageSpace and graphic libraries in SilverLight 1.1 alpha
refresh. 

 

I too want to do image manipulation on the client end (using the
system.drawing library to do things such as compression, resizing,
manipulation). 

 

I've searched long and hard for ways to do these things, and alas no
luck. 

 

The only way I could do image manipulations is stream the raw image to
the server and do it there (using the full system.drawing library
available on the server)

 

I'm crossing my fingers that SilverLight 2.0 will include the
System.Drawing library (or equivalent classes) to do these
manipulations. 

 

I do know that the IsolatedStorage size will be addressed in the new
version come March 5th (Mix 08).

 

If you find any cool hacks in the mean time It would be great if you
could share J

 

Regards Jose (LiquidBoy)

Subject: [OzSilverlight] Image manipulation in SL

 

Hi People,

 

I've been playing around a little with Silverlight 1.1(or is it 2.0? or
is it 1.1 now and will it become 2.0 as of the Beta release??..  aah
well never mind)  but I'm still pretty new to the whole thing..

 

Anyway, I came up with a project I wanted to try with Silverlight, it
would basically be an image uploader, with the option to do some basic
manipulations before uploading the file.

 

After some searching around a bit, I found the Flickr like "Silverlight
Multi-File Upload Tool",
http://advertboy.wordpress.com/2007/12/20/flickr-multi-picture-uploader-
done-in-silverlight/ which is really cool (well done Jose!), that helped
me out on how to do the uploading functionality of my little project.

 

I however quickly ran into problems with the next step, ie. the image
manipulation. One of the main things I wanted to do, is to scale down
large images(say 3-4mb sized) but with the current  1mb isolated storage
limit I can't really seem to come up with a reasonable solution. Any
suggestions?? (And yes I'm aware that this will be addressed in the Beta
that's coming and the answer might be to wait until then...)

 

Cheers,

Ola
