I've only just installed OFBiz for the first time so hopefully I'm not
asking question that have already been asked. I couldn't find any
related issues and nothing came out of my feeble attempt to search the
archive.
In my testing I added a product to a catalog, then on the product
content page I uploaded an image. When I opened the main page of the
ecommerce app which shows the catalog containing the product, the image
looked unrecognizable. When I clicked into product info page it showed
a recognizable image but the image background was black.
My questions are:
1. Are transparent GIFs supported? I uploaded a GIF with a transparent
background but when I load the images directly by their URLs it appears
that the resized images all have a black background so it appears that
transparency isn't handled well. It looks terrible if the item happens
to be black.
2. Is there an optimal image size or ratio for uploading? The image I
uploaded was a picture of a downhill ski that was much wider than it was
tall (2496x214). I also tried an image that was 1/4 in size (599x51).
The image that appears on the catalog page was still unrecognizable.
The image (apparently the "small" image) on this page was 50x4 but it
was stretched to 625x50 (due to the smallimage class height of 50px).
I suppose that this is something that can be addressed through editing
the CSS.
3. Is there a way to pick which image is used for each product (on a per
product basis) when displaying the catalog or the product info pages?
4. Is there a way to configure what the image dimensions should be for
the different image sizes? For example, if one decided that small
should be 75px instead of 50px in width.
4. Are PNG images supported? (And with transparency?)
Thanks in advance,
Paul
