image manipulation actions

[cgirolet]

i already requested such things in ams 6.0 and still don't see anything like this in ams 7.1 previewing pictures is good but manipulating them would be great i don't ask complex manipulations just a resize/resample and maybe something to convert basic formats, i do know that many ams 6.0 are using image magick or .net 2.0 dll and that cyberRBT was working on a set of actions (but it seems to have disapeared at some point didn't got any further news from him) but some actions included in the 7.1 core would be better

i really hope that the further upgrades will include this kinda features even in their simpler forms

Thanks for the suggestion. I've submitted it to be considered.

Ive been writing a few command line programs to take care of a few image manipulation functions in AMS.

Picres is a picture resizer that accepts BMP,PNG,JPG,GIF (and maybe a few others)
The Output is to BMP only.
Filesize 74kb

The command line syntax is :
Picres [SourceFile]#[TargetFile]#[Optional new width]#[Optional new height]
Example:
Picres Pic.bmp#ResizedPic.bmp#200#200

The program can be used as a simple 'to bmp' format coverter if the width and height are left out:
Picres [SourceFile]#[TargetFile]
Example:
Picres WebPic.Jpg#ConvertedPic.bmp

It's a commandline tool. You have to pass it a source file and destination file at least. Read his post, he explains how to use it.
