image-scaling

I'm fairly new to swift and I'm currently trying to display multiple image views within a custom UITableCell. Ideally, I would like to have each image be scaled so that its width fills half of the screen size (while preserving the original aspect ratio). The idea is that each UITableCell will have a collage of 3 images and some additional information in a UILabel -- the tallest image would sit in its own column with the smaller two stacked right next to the tallest. Below is a screenshot to help illustrate what I'm trying to achieve: However, I'm having some trouble with this. Currently, once

I'm using SVG elements with masks to "knock out" or "punch out" text so that the underlying image can be shown through. The only problem with my current set up is that when the browser window is resized, the image elements stretch and distort, rather than staying at a fixed aspect ratio/size. I've been pouring over the svg spec and have read about preserveAspectRatio but nothing seems to work. Here's the basic element I'm using: <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="100%" height="100%" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <defs> <mask id="masktext1"> <rect width="100%" height=

I'm using AsyncScalr in a Servlet to scale down some large images (~ 10-15 MegaBytes), the actual resizing process takes about 40ms which is not much. The overkill comes from Reading the Image from Local Storage as a BufferedImage. so the times are mostly like : read the image file : 1630ms !! resizing the image : 41ms writing the image : 40ms below is the code that I'm using, is there any more optimal way to do this? final FileImageInputStream fileImageInputStream = new FileImageInputStream(file); BufferedImage bufferedImage = ImageIO.read(fileImageInputStream); // resize file Future

I am creating small NSImageViews (32x32 pixels) from large images often 512x512 or even 4096 x 2048 for an extreme test case. My problem is that with my extreme test case, my applicaiton memory footprint seems to go up by over 15MB when I display my thumbnail, this makes me think the NSImage is being stored in memory as a 4096x2048 instead of 32x32 and I was wondering if there is a way to avoid this. Here is the process I go through to create the NsImageView: • First I create an NSImage using initByReferencingFile: (pointing to the 4096x2048 .png file) • Next I initialize the NSImageView with
