To be able to apply the resize or thumbnail creation operations on images,
your web-server must have one of the supported
image processing libraries installed and properly configured. Through
this control panel option you can set what image library is installed
on the server. Also, you can set the path to the external library is any,
and the path to the Tidy executable if available. The Tidy program allows
you to clean up HTML content.
The following options can be set:
In the Preferred library
drop-down menu you can see a list of the libraries on server. Select the
one to be used first from the list.
In the Library path
text-box you can enter the path to the image processing library, if it
is installed on the server. It must be specified explicitly, as it is
not stored in the web-server's folder.
Note: When entering the path for the image library in the text
field, you must take into account the following limitations:
· Folder
names with less than 8 characters cannot contain spaces.
· Folder
names larger than 8 characters can contain spaces, but they can also be
addressed by using the short MS-DOS notation
(e.g. Progra~1 instead of Program Files).
Note: If you use ImageMagick,
you must specify the path to the library executable file. Otherwise, you
will not be able to use this image processing library. The path must be
absolute, not relative to the current site. For instance, on Windows systems,
it can be C:\Program Files\ImageMagick\bin\,
and on UNIX systems, it can be /usr/local/bin/
or /urs/bin/.
The three buttons on the right of the interface offer
you the next functionalities:
· Click OK when you are done configuring the dialog
box.
· Click Cancelto exit without changing the
image library settings.
· The Help button takes you to this help page.
The Tidy
text box is enabled only if you have KTML
4 or MX Kollection
3 Professional installed and allows you to enter the path
to the HTML Tidy program. You should only enter the path on the server,
without the actual file name or the trailing \ sign.
