[arachne] Big graphics - re-size

Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Greg,

    It is rather easy to make large graphics (too big for Arachne) to be
re-sized using QV, as you suggest. Quick and dirty hack:-

1.   Add the following lines of code to arachne\system\gui\saveas.ah

  <!--start resize images-->
<FORM ACTION="file://bigpix.dgi">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" URL>
<br><BUTTON TYPE=SUBMIT>View large image without scrolling - image ONLY !
</BUTTON>
</form>
<!--end resize images-->

2.   Add the following line to the end of MIME.CFG:

file/bigpix.dgi        |@QV\\QV.EXE $L

3.   Then, when you have ONLY a big graphic on the screen and Arachne
won't scroll all the way left and right, press F2.  There is now a
button as indicated in 1. above. Click it !!

     Provided you have your QV set to show images full screen, the image
will be full screen.  I just checked with my own bushfire graphics.


Regards,
        Ron
