Introduction¶
What does it do?¶
This extension adds the a cropping function to tt_content images .
Screenshots¶
Users manual¶
- Just enter your preferred target width and height and enable the cropping (checkbox) and select an alignment for your cropping operation. The alignment is set to “center” by default.
- Keep in mind that the the alignment will only show an effect if the ratio of width and height you entered is different from the aspect ratio of the original image.
- The effect will not be added permanently to the image, it will only affect the generated image. So if you want to choose another dimensions or another alignment setting it will simply take the original image again and crop it a different way. It works in a similar way to the “Effect” option (and of course it can be combined).
Administration¶
The two new fields for cropping are not defined as exclude fields, so there is no further configuration needed. If you don't wish a specific user to use the cropping features you can simply remove the fields via TSconfig. The fields are named tx_imagecrop_crop and tx_imagecrop_gravity.
Configuration¶
Just install the extension – it should work right away, usually there is no configuration needed.
Reference¶
This configuration is added automatically by an ext_typoscript_setup.txt
includeLibs.image_crop = typo3conf/ext/image_crop/pi1/class.tx_imagecrop_pi1.php
tt_content.image.20.1.stdWrap.postUserFunc = tx_imagecrop_pi1->main
If it does not right away the issue is probably that you have included CSS Styled Content in a “Basis Template”. Therefore the changes made by ext_typoscript_setup.txt will be overwritten by the default TypoScript of CSS Styled Content.To fix this you have three options:
Check the Checkbox “Include Static Templates After Basis Templates” in your Template (though this will have some side effects if other configuration relies on the fact that it is the other way around).
Include the static template of CSS Styled Content directly into your primary Template
Add the 2 Lines of TypoScript manually to your Template.
