Rectangle clip and trim

Question

Rectangle clip and trim

So, I expect a series of photographs of different sizes and proportions. I want to be able to compress / stretch a photo so that it can be in a 200x100 rectangle, and then crop the rest, which is not suitable. I want the crop to occur around the center. Is it possible? I am so confused by the documentation to imagine.

Thanks!

Folder # will do exactly what you want: fit the image as much as possible within the specified dimensions, then circle the excess with gravity in the center.

Example:

 has_attached_file :photo, :styles => { :original => "200x100#" }

Note. . If you want to keep the original intact and create an extra cropped finger, simply change the :original key to something else, for example :thumb .
