image resize dialog doesn't support image size larger than 10000

[Dmitriy Geels]

Binary package hint: gthumb

I want to resize image, which is originally 11750x2481. I open Image -> Resize dialog and see there: width 10000, height 2481. I can't set value greater than 10000 for both of them.

Thanks for your bug report. If you could attach a test case of an image that big, that would be great.

Until then, maybe The GIMP will work for you.

[Dmitriy Geels (dmig)]

It'd be few megabytes. Isn't that too much to attach?

You can resize any image with gimp/imagemagick to test this.

I think, but is related to control initialization: 10000 is set as max value.

[mjc (mjc-avtechpulse)]

A sample image isn't necessary. A limit of 10000 is indeed set in the glade files.

Would a boost to 12000 or 15000 work for you? We don't want to set it too high - gThumb is not optimized to handle huge images.

[Dmitriy Geels (dmig)]

12000-15000 is not a solution, actually. I think, it should be set to max size, which may be handled by gThumb.
It handles 16kx4k JPEG pretty well. So, 2^15 - 2^16 should be enough, if you don't want to set it to very large values.

will open an upstream task, just for the record.

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

Thanks for taking time to report this and help make ubuntu better. Can any please confirm if this issue still exists with the version in karmic/lucid

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

actually the latest version is only in Lucid. I am working on a ppa for karmic If I am successful I will give the link

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

Please try the latest version of gthumb for this ppa and see if that solves the problem https://launchpad.net/~om26er/+archive/gthumb

[Matthew Woerly (nattgew)]

Thanks for packaging that for testing.
I installed the version from that PPA, but now I can't run gthumb. It says that it's not currently installed but when I go to install it, it says it's already installed...
It looks like that package only installed the documentation?

[Matthias Hawran (jahwork)]

The bug is fixed upstream (the status is not updated in LP yet), but not released yet.
In will be in 2.11.3 (as 2.11.2 is was released before)
2.11.1 is in Lucid

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

we use fix committed status for issues that are fixed upstream. Thanks for all you help.

[Matthias Hawran (jahwork)]

Ok I wasn't sure. I thought "Fix committed" was for "committed in Ubuntu" (whatever that meant ;-)

[JC Hulce (soaringsky)]

This bug has been marked as Fix Committed for over a year. If the fix has made it into Ubuntu, please mark this bug as Fix Released. If the fix has been released upstream, but not Ubuntu, create a new bug asking for the new version and tag it with upgrade-software-version. If this bug has not been fixed anywhere, change the status back to Confirmed.
