I've searched online but i can't find anything, i'm probably searching for the wrong thing but have no idea so have turned to the BCF gods to help me out.

Can anyone tell me how to work out what the width a 16:9 image should be if the height is 60 pixels or lines high.

So the image has to be 60 pixels high, what width would that be if it was in 16:9 format.

Cheers,
Andrew

Hi

(Width / 9) * 16

So (60/9) * 16 = 106.66667

All the best

Keith

Hi

Real fun happens when trying to work out elegantly how to resize an image of size X*Y to fit inside a box size M*N, where the ratio of width to height isn't necessarily common.

All the best

Keith

I thought that involved three or four people wanking onto a biscuit with the last one to come being to one to eat it?

They're teaching "not to try and be a cocky, smug, smart arse twat after burning your face off through your own stupidity".

You must have been off that day. Thumbs Up

Hes right though, ratios are year 9 stuff, or at least they were in my day - and I'm 23 and rubbish at maths.

Dunno, just look in the MPG thread, you find a pile unable to convert litres to gallons.

Saying that, it was my chemistry teacher who said "what the fuck have they been teaching you in maths?" and then went to spend the rest of the lesson teaching ratios Smile

After 15 years of maths I bet it does blur into one! Did it at A level myself, that was enough. Well enough to tell me that my original idea of a career in engineering would be a really bad idea.
