Image Resample

Often when you use an image in Flux you will not know what size you will need until you lay out the page. Though many people use high speed internet connections many people are using slower mobile connections. Optimising your images to give the best visitor experience is still very important. Flux has built in image resampling to make this simpler.

How to resample image

Once you have resized your Resample image menu item.image on the page using the handles that show when it is selected or by entering values in a related style just right click and select Resample Image from the contextual menu.

Flux will generate a new copy of the image and resample it to optimise the download speed and switch the displayed image to the new one.

Both images will be stored in the same folder with the original having -original added to its file name. The original is not removed incase it is needed before the page/project is finished. In most instances it is best to remove the original large image from the project before uploading to the server. To do this select original image in Site Manager right click and pick delete from menu or use the Delete icon in the Toolbar.

Tip

Remove original image before uploading to server.

Hold shift key when dragging an image corner to constrain proportions.
