Advantages: 1) User have the ability to disable the compression at insert time (users arent prompted everytime time they press Ctrl+S or click the save button in the toolbar) 2) Smaller inserted images saves memory and also results in a more responsive UI (the UI becomes very sluggish when large images are present in a document - e.g <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed" title="RESOLVED DUPLICATE - Editing very slow with big picture on page" href="show_bug.cgi?id=78529">bug 78529</a>) > For example, let’s say my > system is set to 96 dpi.

As the optimization happens once the image is inserted, you should notice that the image doesnt look as shape as you remember it to be. Also you still have the image you inserted, so you can always replace the inserted image with the original image and then disable compression. As mentioned above, users dont encounter a dialog when they save, unless its a new document, so users would never see the option to enable/disable compression at save time.

The only available functions that alters the pixels in an image are the image filter functions and with optimizations only happening with large images, no low resolutions images will be produced by the optimization routine.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
