Images Rotated in Report

Post by customaware »

I have a Report that displays a number of Photos.

I am using ImageMajck to orientate the Portrait and Landscape photos correctly.

I the BO Form they look like this.....
sw_4.jpeg
sw_4.jpeg (185.65 KiB) Viewed 8138 times
The Photos are stored in the filesystem and when I look at the files at the path location they a oriented correctly.

However, when I add them to a Report the are rotated for some weird reason.... like this....
sw-1.jpeg
sw-1.jpeg (194.09 KiB) Viewed 8138 times
However, for Portrait mode photos.... it seems fine.... like this...
sw_3.jpeg
sw_3.jpeg (189.31 KiB) Viewed 8138 times
Would really appreciate if anyone knows what is causing this and if there is any way to resolve it.

TIA.
Cheers,
Mark

Gosh - not seen this in a lonnnng time. Are you taking the photos with an old iPhone by any chance?

Time was -when IPhones didn’t add the orientation meta data to their images. Try opening them in something like Gimp and then re-saving and uploading them.

If nothing else it will at least point to where the problem might lie.

Ok... Seems like I have fixed it....

I added -set `exif:Orientation` `1` to the magik mogrify command and it seems to have corrected the problem.

ie....

EXECUTE PROGRAM 'magick mogrify -set `exif:Orientation` `1` -format jpg C:\TempImage\'+FILE_NAME(PictureItemForAnswers.Picture)+'.'+FILE_EXTENSION(PictureItemForAnswers.Picture)
Cheers,
Mark
