This is also a problem that is a little tricky because of how ueberzug
draws images on the screen. Let me explain a little more how ucollage
handles each image.
ueberzug
takes the following parameters
When ucollage
creates the grid, it sets this values for each image and then ueberzug
does the rest, according to the scaler selected. In order to optimize the use of space we would need to know the resolution of the image (not that difficult to find through the use of secondary programs) and also how that resolution is mapped to the column width and row height of your terminal in order to select the optimal values.
For example how do we map a 3:2 resolution image to widthxheight so that the ratio (width pixels_per_column)/(height pixels_per_row) is 3:2.
I believe this is doable. I can search the web for it. But if you already have an idea and can help, I will be happy to listen to suggestions.
Then again, we have the problem. What resolution should we tailor our grid for our images to fit perfectly? But, this is manageable, through set options. It's interesting in any way and this issue can remain open for the time being.
Currently, one can change the amount of rows and columns with
+_
and-_
. It would be nice if ucollage could dynamically adjust the amount of rows and columns when resizing the window, to allow for best use of the space in the terminal.Examples:
