Photoshop :: Create Action To Bulk Crop Images To 16:9 Aspect Ratio?

Jul 16, 2013

how to create an action or script that could take all images in a folder and crop them to an aspect ratio of 16:9 and then resize them to 640x360?

I can't just change the pixels to 640x360 because that would distort the images as the current aspect ratios are not 16:9.

Photoshop :: How To Create Action To Crop To Specific Aspect Ratio

Jun 7, 2012

I have images of varying sizes that I need to all be cropped to a specific aspect ratio in the center of the image and extending either to the side edges or the top and bottom depending on using the maximum portion of the image.  How do you set up an action to do this.
 
If I were to do this by hand, I would use the rectangle marquee, change to fixed ratio, and drag from one edge to the other.  They move the selection to the center (as best I could) .  Then do Image<Crop?
 
But I need to automate this process and have have it exactly positioned in the center.  Can this be automated in an action?  If so, how?
 
FYI, I have CS5 (and CS6).  I am comfortable using the image processor.  So as long as I have an action set up, I can process all of my images using the image processor. I also have lightroom 4 if there is some way to do it there.

Photoshop :: Constraining A Crop To A Specific Aspect Ratio?

Jun 14, 2006

Is there a simple way to constrain a crop to a certain aspect ratio? I have a bunch of cropping to do and the results all need to be 5:3. It's not that difficult to use the info palette and get the aspect ratio right but it would be way quicker if I could just constrain the crop tool to those proportions.

Lightroom :: Crop Tool Won't Constrain Aspect Ratio In 4.4

Aug 13, 2013

This is a sudden change of behavior in Lightroom 4.4, Mac OS 10.7.5.
 
In the past, when I chose the crop tool, with the locked icon in the locked position, when I adjusted the crop, the crop was constrained to the original aspect ratio of the photo. Now, no matter what I do, the crop is kind of "partly" constrained.  That is, I start with a vertical image, then drag the crop down so that the crop rectangle has a horizontal aspect ratio, I can drag up on the horizontal crop rectangle so that the original aspect ratio is no longer preserved.  Until the aspect ratio has gone horizontal, the original aspect ratio is preserved.  It doesn't matter if the lock is locked or unlocked, or whether I hold the shift key or not.
 
Here's an example:
 
at this point, the crop is still vertical, with aspect ratio constrained. It's still "as shot" and the padlock icon is locked
 
Here, the crop is now horizontal, but the aspect ratio is still constrained, "as shot" and still the icon is locked.
 
Now, things have gotten wonky.  When the right edge of the crop hits the edge of the photo, it's possible to drag it upwards.  The aspect ration is no longer constrained, and even though the padlock icon is locked the aspect is now "Custom"
 
As I said, this is new behavior which I have never seen since the version of Lightroom included the crop tool (I started at Lightroom 1.0).  Like they all say "I haven't changed anything", but something  obviously has changed.  I don't believe this is correct behavior, or the behavior I've been used to for years.  Is there any way to think this is the correct behavior?
 
I noticed it sometimes happens on some (most) photos, but not all, and will seemingly randomly start/stop working properly on photos that weren't/were working just minutes before.

Lightroom :: Crop Aspect Ratio Not Staying Locked When Cropping

Apr 29, 2013

It seems that with the 4.4 update a bug was introduced with the crop aspect ratio not staying locked when cropping.   It changes to "custom" even though the lock remains. What do I do to maintain a standard photo size and not switch to custom?  For printing purposes, I need the ratio to stay locked and dimensions standard.

Photoshop Elements :: Resolution When Images Are Cropped To Preset Aspect Ratio

Mar 12, 2014

When an image is cropped using the cropping tool to a preset aspect ratio (without specifying a resolution), the resolution of the cropped image is different than the original. I'd like to be able to understand exactly how this new resolution is determined and be able to calculate it myself. The help section of the software just says, "If you use a preset size, the resolution changes to fit the preset." But I'd like to know the details of how the resolution changes.
 
How the resolution of the cropped image is determined in Photoshop Elements?

Lightroom :: 4.4.1 - Using Images For Slideshow / Set Aspect Ratio 16 X 9 For Viewing On HD Television

Feb 23, 2014

I have an folder with approx 500 photos that have been optimised in the Develop module (aspect ratio set at AS SHOT)  and exported to photo lab for 2 x 3 prints. Now I need to use these same images for a slideshow and set an aspect ratio of  16 x 9  1920 x 1080 for viewing on HD Television. I do not want to change the AS SHOT aspect ratio of these images in the current folder.  so first, this means I need to make a copy of this folder within Lightroom and second, change the aspect ratio to 16 x 9 for all images at the Quick develop module and complete in the slideshow module. The second part is no problem but how do you "copy" a folder of images in Lightroom OR alternatively can you make a virtual copy of a folder?

Lightroom :: How To Create Slideshow Full Of Photos With Native Aspect Ratio Of 3:2

Dec 2, 2013

I'm using Lightroom 5.2 on a 27-inch iMac running Mavericks. I want to create a slide show full of photos with a native aspect ratio of 3:2 (from a Nikon D4 and a Nikon D800). I do NOT want the photos to be trimmed along the top and bottom, which is what happens when I choose "Zoom to fill frame" in the Slide Show module. I do NOT want letterboxing along the right and left edges of the photo, which is what I get if I don't choose "Zoom to fill frame" and just export the slide show using the "Export Video" button in the lower left of the Slide Show module. ("Export Video" gives me four choices for "Video Preset," but none of the four is a 3:2 aspect ratio.) I just want a slide show of uncropped 3:2 aspect ratio photos with no border around them whatsoever. Considering how many of the photos taken every day on this planet are still in the 3:2 aspect ratio, I find it hard to believe there isn't a way to do this.
 
If for some reason there is no way to create such a slide show in Lightroom, I have Creative Suite 5, iPhoto, and iMovie, but I don't want to buy any new software just for this.

Photoshop :: Aspect Ratio Change?

Jul 11, 2007

I just joined and I'm a complete newbie at Photoshop, though I'm fairly interested in it.

I was wondering if it's possible to change the aspect ratio of a 5:4 (1600x1200) image to 16:10 (1680x1050) without stretching the image or contorting it.

I've tried resizing, but all that does is screw up the image and/or make it look all crappy.

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio

Feb 26, 2008

Since installing Photoshop CS2, whenever I open a file (.tiff), PS selects the incorrect aspect ratio (a custom ratio of 0.5, when in fact the file is meant to have an aspect ratio of 1.0).

1. Is the aspect ratio stored in the file as an attribute, or does Photoshop guess the ratio from some other attribute?

2. Can I force PS to open all files with an aspect ratio of 1.0?

In older versions of Photoshop the files opened correctly. When I open the .tiff in a text editor, I can't find any attribute named 'aspect ratio' or somesuch.

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio

Nov 7, 2008

I'm running Photoshop CS2 (9) on XP pro. I have a bunch of tiffs made from scans of 36" x 48" documents. They all are coming in with a strange distortion. A box pops up: "Pixel aspect ration correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality." I know how to turn it off, but I cannot afford the time to save 144 huge files. Can this default be reset? To reset this default to "square", I have tried everything short of deleting pixel aspect ratios. I never want anything but "square". What will it hurt to delete pixel aspect ratios?

Photoshop :: Aspect Ratio Change

Jan 15, 2004

New digi-camcorder records at 16:9 (I have a w/s TV. I need to incorporate many stills. All stills edited using p'shop 6. With TV aspect ratio set to 16:9 movies are great, stills are ssttrreettcchheedd. I need to change the aspect ratio of my stills by a constant factor so they are 'squeezed' when viewed at 4:3 (ie on my computer monitor) but expanded to the correct ratio on the TV.

I use a digi still camera for pics (and no, it doesn't have a 16:9 option and no, I can't afford one that does).

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio

Mar 19, 2009

I'm using Photoshop since the Photoshop CS versions. However I'm quite unpleased to see the following since I installed Photoshop CS4 from my university (it's a legal version).

I can't seem to draw simple circle. (Yes, I pressed in the Shift button to draw perfect cirlces and squares) I get the following:

This is not a circle and my grid lines aren't even like squares they're more like rectangles. Now some details about my monitor. It is a 15,4 (if I'm correct) widescreen laptop, at the resolution of 1024 x 768. I didn't have this kind of problems with the CS3 version (which is also legal).

So I though let's check the pixel aspect ratio, however normally I set it on "square" and this problem will be fixed. Now if I set it on square I get something like that image I posted. So I tried removing the pixel aspect ratio correction, but it didn't help, because it is disabled on square.

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio

Feb 6, 2009

CS2 and happy with it. Newly installed HP 22" widescreen. Getting to grips with Pix Aspect ratio for first time I have found out how to set a ppi value that produces accurate "print size" previews. However, I edit down from hundreds of sport pictures regularly and want to see an accurate ratio display - it affects the dynamic of the picture IMVHO.

There isn't time to go dragging sub menus around. I'm quite happy with less display space or to use the spare for menus but am finding Win Vista has ideas of its own about what's best for me. Upsum - I want all photos to display with accurate proportions (final use - print). Any advice on screen /photoshop set-up to achieve this would be welcome.

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio Correction

I opened a picture from a friends Canon EOS 5D Mark II camera and got this warning: Pixel aspect ratio correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality.
 
My questions: is this maximum quality of the warning referring for printing or just for viewing the file on screen and secondly what could have caused it in the first place. My friend has never seen this dialog box on his Photoshop at home and does not know of any camera setting that would have caused this.
