Re: Image::Transform: GD driver - function_exists?

It's a good idea to write directly to the maintainer(eg. peter) and cc pear-dev (email in the top of the file) about this - he's not currently subscribed to pear-dev.. Regards Alan Bjoern Kraus wrote:

Hi! I'm currently coding a small photo album and tried to create some thumbnails with Image::Transform. The result looked worse. So I checked the _resize() function of the GD driver and stopped at the function check in line 331 and 336. After some tests I found out that the code doesn't do what you want. So I changed the two if-statements into <snip>

        if(function_exists('ImageCreateTrueColor')){
            ...
        if(function_exists('ImageCopyResampled')){
            ...

</snip> I think this will do the job. But, after this change I realized that my performance decreased. This relies on the ImageCopyResampled function which needs lot of processor speed. Perhaps it's a good idea to add a switch for the resize functions to decide which function to use (e. g. fastResizing = true|false). Regards Bjoern Kraus
