[Support request] GenerateBlocks – how to pick the *size* of the selected image for a background?

[Clifford]

I have an image to use as the background. The Full/Original size is say 2400px but the Large image size is 1200px. I want the Large size as the container’s background image, to reduce page size and load time.

I’m guessing you’d need to enhance the GenerateBlocks functionality to have a “size” picker?

Hi there,

that option will be available in GB 1.2 – we’re working on the alpha release now which should be available within 1 week.

[Clifford]

Thanks. I’m not going to run Alpha on a production site (which is where optimization matters) so any idea when actual release with this functionality might be available?

[David]

We’re estimating a 3-4 week alpha/beta testing period. So likely just before the end of November.

[Clifford]

OK, not too bad. tyvm! Please do mention it in the changelogs or reply back here.

[David]

No problems. We’ll keep the changelogs updated.

[Clifford]

I’m really happy to see Version 1.2.0 include this!

I didn’t know to ask then so I’m asking now: please add the same to Elements’ image picker: https://share.getcloudapp.com/nOuDeWLQ

[David]

Yep – its rather cool 🙂
Elements is something we are looking at for that feature… watch this space 🙂
