Lets you change the size of your image. Available options:

  • Width and Height: Enter values for these parameters.
  • Dimensions: Sets whether the numbers above are Percentages of the original size or actual Pixels.
  • Keep aspect ratio: If you pick this, Width and Height will always stay in the original proportion, so you can't set them independently.
  • Do not enlarge image: If the Width and Height you set are bigger than the original, resizing won't be applied.

Usage Example​

Let's say you made a template, but at some stage, it fails with an error. To help figure out why, you can take a screenshot at the moment of the error and take a look at what's going on.

Create an action Random and generate a random number or name for the thread. Save this to a variable {-Variable.thread-}.

Now add a BadEnd action and link it to Image Processing. Set the options like you see in this screenshot:

Add to project

File path: {-Project.Directory-}{-Variable.thread-}\App_screenshot.jpg.

You can also save the page code {-Page.Dom-} using the Write to file action. This helps troubleshoot bugs that come up while working with the browser.
