Image compression and quality

[KungFuCoder]

I am trying to find a way to control the compression and quality of the image saved by the ImageEditor.    

Currently running the saveImageOnServer command:

imageEditor.saveImageOnServer("", true)

connected to a  "SaveImage" tool

 <telerik:ImageEditorTool CommandName="SaveImage" ToolTip="Save Image" />

 

I loaded an image with following properties:
Width = 1024px
Height = 768px
Size = 606KB
DPI = 96
BitDepth = 24

I cropped the image to 1013 x 638 and saved the image. 

The properties of the file changed to:
Width = 1013px  Height = 638px Size = 1.32MB  DPI = 96 BitDepth = 32

I was hoping the file size would decrease but I imagine file size increase has to do with the BitDepth increasing.   How can I control this with the ImageEditor control?

Hello Kungfucoder,

RadImageEditor does not offer a way to chance / customize the image compression out-of-the box, but you should be able use the OnImageSaving server event to compress the image before it is saved.
