Thread: Swatch Image Creation Question

I'm on the newest version of ASPDNSF (v. 8.x) and trying to enable auto swatch creation as described at http://manual.aspdotnetstorefront.co...ch-images.aspx. I've followed all of the instructions, however, when I choose my medium sized images in the multi-image manager and hit 'Update' I get a server error:

Server Error in '/' Application.
A generic error occurred in GDI+.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

I've made sure that the NETWORK SERVICE has modify rights to the Images folder, so I don't believe it is a permissions issue. Anyone have any insight? It seems like it creates the images, however, it will not display the image map code following the update.

Thanks!

So for those interested, I figured out the issue. For some reason, I had no /Images/products/swatch folder which was the cause of the issue. As soon as I created this folder, all worked as expected.

I do have the swap folder...

Any Ideas?

When I set my cart to automatically create image swatches, it crops them for some reason, no matter what I have the image cropping settings set to. Is there a way to disable this?

Mind you, the images I'm creating the swatches from are exactly the same aspect ratio of the swatch dimensions. So no cropping should need to occur anyway.

Thanks,
Jerritte

Same here on the cropping issue, Any suggestions?

btw, I also did not have the swatch folder and as getting the original error on 1st post.

Thanks for the post on that.

In Admin\EntityProductImageMgr.aspx.vb file replace the 2 instances of "skinID" with "ThisCustomer.SkinID".

happy prg'ing
