Per element Properties to scale the source image #8

Closed lonniev closed 6 years ago

My goal is to be able to record screen snapshots as UI/UX mockups in "Application Interface" elements.

Today, screen snapshots at full resolution can be immense. For example, 38 inches wide on some monitors.

Within an Archi view, I want to show a scaled (down) version of the snapshot. For example, to make "Powerpoint" like views.

Ideally, a property would control whether the source image is automatically fit-within-element, cropped-by-element, or fits-element-to-actual-size.

Additionally, properties to snap the icon to left, top, right, bottom, and center of the element would be a nice feature.

I already added a new property called "icon size" that allows to

it will be available in the next release.

At the moment, the only thing that my plugin does it to read the image from the file, resize it, and pass it to Archi. Changing the icon location would require to rewrite a big part of Archi graphical user interface, which would be quite very complicated. I will study if I find an easier way to do it, but until then, it will not be on my todo list. Sorry.

Very good. I’m pleased with the first capability and understand that the second would be far more difficult.

I've go good news for you.

Positioning the image is much easier than I thought. Next release will allow you to specify the position through a "icon position" property with a value under the form "x,y" where:

I just released the version 1.0 of my plugin.

Please do not hesitate to open a new issue if this does not work as expected.
