10 months ago Hi,
I'll try to answer as best I can.
1) No, the path inside the imagerSystemPath is in a fixed format, except the first segment which may or may not be the handle for the assets volume if you toggle addVolumeToPath. The reason for this is that Imager needs control over the path to ensure that transforms are unique, and to facilitate cache breaking. The filename can be customized using filenamePattern
2) I'm not 100% sure what you're trying to achieve here, but the following:
{% set newBaseImage = craft.imagerx.transformImage(image, 'defaultTransform') %}
{% set transformedImages = craft.imagerx.transformImage(newBaseImage, 'hexImage') %}Should work from a technical standpoint, except that if defaultTransform returns an array of transformed images, which your excerpt from the config indicates, it doesn't.. Because transformImage takes in one image source. So try changing the second line to {% set transformedImages = craft.imagerx.transformImage(newBaseImage[0], 'hexImage') %} and see what happens.
To explain this further, the second parameter of transformImage, and the transforms parameter of the named transform config, can either be an array of transforms, or a single one. And imager will return either an array of transformed images, or a single transformed image, depending on this.
Example:
'singleTransform' => [
'transforms' => [
'width' => 1000
]
],
'multipleTransforms' => [
'transforms' => [
['width' => 1000],
['width' => 1200],
['width' => 1400],
]
]{% set transformedSingleImage = craft.imagerx.transformImage(image, 'singleTransform') %}
{# transformedSingleImage is now a single transformed image model #}
{% set multipleTransformedImages = craft.imagerx.transformImage(image, 'multipleTransforms') %}
{# multipleTransformedImages is now an array of transformed image models #}Not sure if that solves it for you or not. If you still can't get the end result that you want, please provide some more details about what you're trying to achieve.
3) The only way to nest or extend named transforms at the moment, is using the technique shown in the docs you linked to (in the "Nested named transforms" section). This lets you override defaults, for instance format or aspect ratio, but not the sizes themselves.
But as with the previous question, I'm a bit fuzzy on why you'd want to do this, so any added context would be needed to suggest workarounds or alternate solutions.
Hope this helps!

Description
Hi, I'm new to using Imager-X and have a few questions that I didn't see in the FAQ or troubleshooting. 1. Is there a way to assign a path for specific transforms or sizes? For example, using a named transform to go to place images transformed with it into a folder like 'imager/400w/' ? I tried what I thought would work based on what I saw in the documentation, but it seemed like the configuration changes only work at the config level and not the override (or defaults) level for an individual transform. 2. How do I apply two named transforms to an image? Based on https://imager-x.spacecat.ninja/usage/ and https://imager-x.spacecat.ninja/usage/named-transforms.html I would expect something like this to work, but it doesn't seem to work for me. `{% set newBaseImage = craft.imagerx.transformImage(image, 'defaultTransform') %}` `{% set transformedImages = craft.imagerx.transformImage(newBaseImage, 'hexImage') %}` defaultTransform and hexImage both work by themselves. So ` {% set transformedImages = craft.imagerx.transformImage(image, 'hexImage') %}` and ` {% set transformedImages = craft.imagerx.transformImage(image, 'hexImage') %}` work without an error. I just can't seem to do a named transform on an image that was transformed? For context what I was using for testing: ``` 'defaultTransform' => [ 'displayName' => 'Default 1000w transform', 'transforms' => [ ['width' => 1000] ] ] ``` Also, replacing 'defaultTransform' with width: 1000 renders without an error. 3. Is there a good way to nest named transforms by width? I'm trying to be able to setup a group of named transforms that can be called by other transforms. So, something like this (but, actually functional)... `['width' => 400, 'transforms' => '400wheadhex']` ### Additional info - Imager version & edition: 4.2.3 PRO - Imager transformer: craft - Craft version: 4.5.11.1 PRO - PHP version: 8.0.30 - Image driver & version: Imagick 3.7.0 (ImageMagick 6.9.11-60)
