swaped image proportion problem

[Guest]

I have a table with on large photo (landscape 693x 346) in one cell and a mix of landscape and portrait thumnails below it. My problem is when I Use behaviors-swap images, the swaped image is way out of proportion becaues it fits the entire space of the cell. How do I get it to behave normally? I am new to FP 2003. Thanks.

In general the images should all be the same size, as when the image is swapped, the image
dimensions do not get replaced.

You can switch to Code view and remove the dimensions which will solve the problem but slow down
your page loading somewhat.

Thanks, that works well for all landscape photos, however, the images that are portrait still grow to fill the table's cell. Isn't there a way to make the cell grow or shrink automatically to accomadate the picture?

Remove any width values from the table and cell or add extra canvas to your portrait images so that
they are the same width as the landscape images.

Say your landscape images are 300 w x 200 h pixels, and your portrait image is 200 w and 200 h, then
in a image application create rectangle that is 300 w in whatever color you want, then import or
paste your image into the application and center on the rectangle you just created, then combine
into a single image and save as a JPG back to your desktop, then re-import into FP, etc.

Removing the width values in both the table & cell do not seem to work. I do not know how to add

extra canvas to an image. Can you point me to an answer? Thanks.

Thomas, thank you very much! I found a photo editor on my PC and found a canvas feature. I used it successfully for the portrait image. I appreciate your help
