Image field and/or patch with clipping support for Plone/Archetypes.
Project description
Image field for Archetypes with different behavior at time of scaling.
Introduction
Archtypes default ImageField scales down the image until the whole image fits into the given scale. It keeps it aspect ratio. I.e. scaling down a 400x300 image to a 200x200 scale result in a 200x150 image.
Same with ClippingImageField results in a 200x200 image! It centers the image horizontal or vertical and tries to keep as much as possible from the original.
Tested with Plone 3.3.x and Plone 4.
Usage:
Field
Specify the sizes as documented for the classic Archetypes ImageField. If you want specific scales to get clipped, add a field-property crop_scales=['image_large','other_scale']. It expects a list of scale names to include into clipping.
Patch
By including patch.zcml in your package archetypes.clippingimage will patch Products.Archetypes.Field.ImageField so it is able to generate cropped scales.
You can define which scales shall be cropped by adding a property crop_scales to your ImageField:
ImageField('image', sizes= {'large' : (768, 768), 'preview' : (400, 400), 'listing' : (16, 16), }, crop_scales = ['listing'], ...
Note that if you want to use clipped images within ATCTImage and have plone.app.imaging installed you need to set a property crop_scales at plone.app.blob.subtypes.image.SchemaExtender.fields[0].
Blob
In case of using the patch everythings fine. No further action needed. If you use the field, you need to include the blob.zcml to make the fields scales blobs.

Changelog
2.1
use the format of original image for computing the crop. the field used to convert everything to png which resulted in relatively large files [fRiSi]
2.0
make plone.app.imaging and plone.app.blob aware. Works now with Plone 4. [jensens]
sizes can be a callable or a dictionary (instance method not supported)
background: plone.app.imaging uses the sizes defined in imaging_properties in case sizes is a dictionary. so you need to define sizes via a callable to make your custom sizes take effect. [fRiSi]
added monkeypatch for ImageField.scale to add croppingsupport to any ImageField [jensens, fRiSi]
