Portrait format for smartphone #20

Closed Pokerness closed 3 years ago

Hi, In the w10 asset directory, we can see that each Spotlight image exists in 2 formats : landscape and portrait.

Could it be possible to capture the two formats by adding an argument to choice the format : landscape, portrait or both, Two Archive directories should be required.

Thanks a lot for this great apps !

Hi,

Currently, there is not support for downloading both images at the same time but you can use the --portrait parameter to get for portrait images. By default, Spotlight Downloader picks the appropriate image type from your main monitor's layout.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong but I think that portrait images are generated by cropping the landscape one so you can basically just define the landscape image as wallpaper on your smartphone and get the same result.

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your answer. That works well by combining --portrait --maxres parameters.

Portrait images are not a cropped landscape version because they have the same resolution 1080x1920, and it seems that they are not zoomed from a 610x1080 resolution.
