Resizing an image with min and max limits

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Eric,

You might find this function useful:

function rescale theImgWidth,theImgHeight,theCdWidth,theCdHeight
  if theCdWidth/theImgWidth < theCdHeight/theImgHeight then
    put theCdWidth / theImgWidth into myRatio
  else
    put theCdHeight / theImgHeight into myRatio
  end if
  put theImgWidth * myRatio into myNewWidth
  put theImgHeight * myRatio into myNewHeight
  return myNewWidth,myNewHeight
end rescale

TheImgWidth and theImgHeight are the original width and height, e.g. the formattedWidth and formattedHeight of an image object, and the CdWidth and theDcHeight are the width and height of the destination area. It returns the new height and width for your object, with correct aspect ratio.
