I am using ZenCart version 1.3.9g, Patch 1.
The site was upgraded from 1.3.9a.
The only addon I'm aware of is Image Handler 2.
The site uses a template.
I have searched and trolled the FAQs, Tutorials and Forums for hours.
The problem began when I started maintaining my customer's site.
Transactions are working fine and the store is live.
I've read the documentation that comes with the Image Handler 2 zip file and some things I found on the web.
Is it correct that the large version of the image is not modified by Image Handler, only the medium and small?
I'm seeing something strange. If there is an image for a product which is 600 x 600 px, when you click "Larger Image" on the product detail page, it displays at 600 x 600 px. However, in Admin - Tools - Image Handler2, the large size says it should be 550 x 550 px. The small and medium images display at the sizes shown in Image Handler.
How is the large size determined? How does Image Handler take an image that is 600 x 600 px and decide it should be 550 x 550 px? And why isn't is showing up that way when you click "Larger Image"?
Thank you in advance for any insights you can share.:smile:
just wondering...what happens if you have a normal sized image larger than 600x600...does it display them at 550 or 600Quote:

go to the description page and click the image---then rightclick to view image and it will give you the url in the location bar with the size it is displaying also.
mine are 900+ at times and the IH2 shoots the image to what I have mine set to see about 725.
I would also add the "h" update to the store too just to be current.
It displays the large images at their original size. For example, if the image is 1200 x 1200 px, it displays it as 1200 x 1200 px, even if Image Handler says it should be 550 x 550 px.
I've also noticed that different product categories have different large image dimensions in Image Handler 2 Admin. That's why I'd like to know how IH determines the large or normal image size.

How is the dimension (circled in red) determined?
Thank you in advance.
Link to site would be tremendously helpful so we can contribute more meaningful answers versus guessing...
Images sizes (as the readme explains) are determined by your settings in Configuration > Images. Knowing what those settings are is actually a LOT more useful to help determine IF there is an issue..
These are my settings and the one in red is for that part and the orange ones are for the description page images--hope that helps

Here is an example link - http:// kenneths jewelry and gems .com /index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=83_87&products_id=1970. Please remove the spaces.
In Image Hanlder, the large size reads 600 x 116. When you click on "Larger Image" on the product detail page the size of the image is 1423 x 277.
So, my question is where does the dimension 600 x 116 come from? How does Image Handler determine that dimension?
My goal is to understand the IH software and fix the over-large product image displays.
Otherwise, I'll have to search through the code and I thought the forum might be faster.
Thank you again.:smile:
