Show in app

Description

This skill covers crop “variants” (different crop settings) in TYPO3's image manipulation system. It covers how to define aspect ratios, crop areas, focus areas and cover areas. It also covers how to customise crop variants for a content element using overrideChildTca and columnsOverrides.

Goals

  • I know how to define crop variants with allowed aspect ratios in TCA imageManipulation configuration.
  • I know how to configure initial crop areas, focus areas and cover areas for crop variants.
  • I know how to customise crop variant configuration per content element using overrideChildTca and columnsOverrides.
  • I know how to disable specific crop variants for certain field types.
  • I know how to render a specific crop variant using the Fluid image view helper.
  • I know how to explain the synchronised cropping feature and its prerequisites (identical aspect ratios across variants).
