Crop Rebar Shape Images

[miguel.gutierrezD74CZ]

Hi community, the FitToPage enumerate export images using to much white space. Is there any workaround to zoom a little bit more the image just like this:

so then Images can have a better visualization of those image in the rebar schedule.

			string desktopPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop);
			ImageExportOptions img = new ImageExportOptions();
			img.PixelSize = 1000;
			img.ImageResolution = ImageResolution.DPI_600;
			img.SetViewsAndSheets(new List<ElementId>{viewDetail.Id});
			img.ExportRange=ExportRange.SetOfViews;
			img.ZoomType = ZoomFitType.FitToPage;
			img.FitDirection = FitDirectionType.Vertical;
			img.HLRandWFViewsFileType=ImageFileType.PNG;
			img.FilePath = Path.Combine(desktopPath,"image1");
			img.ShadowViewsFileType = ImageFileType.PNG;
			detailComponent.ExportImage(img);
			#endregion

any recommendations tot the image name appropriately as I aimed t seo named the image as "image1" but it turns out to be "image1 - Floor Plan Ref Level"

@miguel.gutierrezD74CZ,

Hi,

What type of view are you using? I did something similar using a drafting view, and the zoom to fit works fine.

The rebar shape reinforcement is generated on a detail component family so the data is visualized on a ref level plan

But is it strictly necessary to do it in a plan view?

Is not a must but It will ease the computation. I give it a try placing them on drafting view, however the zoom to fit option doesn't help that much as there is no way to control the height.

I just provided a suggestion in your other thread on indicating height and width pixels when exporting images:

I would suggest combining the approach of adding a known frame around the objet to display plus using a PNG trimming tool to remove the known frame and as much white space around it as possible. For instance, you can search GitHub for PNG trim:

Indeed, a trim PNG code is what I might be missing. Gonna look it up how it is done.
