hershey4 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Am looking for batch resize enhancement. I did Select All and then did Re-size, but only got re-size on the current picture. Actually, I don't think SelectAll did anything. Wonder what its there for, actually. Adding other utilities (paid or free) to get the re-size job done is not a valid workaround (as someone mentioned in the recent locked thread on the subject). The point is to use a utility that does it all. For actions that I do not do frequently, I can never remember which tool does which thing best. It would be preferable to have one go-to tool that meets basic editing and file needs and is easy to use. I am thinking paint.net may be mostly for advanced editing. I ended up using MS Picture Manager for this task, but in folders that need selective selections (e.g. select all pics > 2Kmb), they don't support n-to-n-selection with ctrl-shift. I had to use Explorer to copy the desired folders to a temp folder then use MS-PM to Select-All and Batch Resize; then copy back. blech. There once was a uploader tool from a website photo hosting site I had used in the past that did batch resize, but couldn't remember which or where it was. fwiw, I used %percentage reductions, maintaining aspect ratio. I can see that h x w absolute measurements might be tricky in batch mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 There was just a thread on this yesterday, and it should be clear this won't be happening. Saying that another utility "is not a valid workaround" is just entitlement and laziness. Go spend $10 or whatever.
