Image Editor Flip, Rotate Issue in FireFox

[Akila Kumarasamy]

Hi,

We are using RadEditor Version 2009.3.1208. I have an issue with Image Editor Flip and rotate in Firefox. Actaully, its not working in Firefox. And I have gone through the code and found that filter is used for flipping and rotating the images. And I think filter is specific to IE and there is a code to just "return" if the filter is null which makes it not to work in firefox.  ITs problem with both flip and rotate, does any one had the same problem?  How can I fix this?Any one can help me?

_updateFlipUI: function()

    {

        var horiz = this._flipHorizontal;

        var vertical = this._flipVertical;

  

        var filters = this._image.filters;

  

        //Moz TEMP

        if (!filters)

         return;

  

        filters.item("flipH").enabled = horiz ? 1 : 0;

        filters.item("flipV").enabled = vertical ? 1 : 0;

    },

_updateRotationUI: function()
    {
        var image = this._image;

        //If IE
        var filters = image.filters;
        if (filters)
        {
            var filter = filters.item("DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Matrix");
            if (filter)
            {
                //deg input defines the requested angle of rotation.
                var deg = this._rotationAngle;
                var deg2radians = Math.PI * 2 / 360;

                var rad = deg * deg2radians;
                var costheta = Math.cos(rad);
                var sintheta = Math.sin(rad);
                filter.M11 = costheta;
                filter.M12 = -sintheta;
                filter.M21 = sintheta;
                filter.M22 = costheta;
            }
        }
    }

//Will be different in different browsers
    _customInitialize: function()
    {
        //Set all filters to the image (TODO: the matrix filter in the future too)
        this._image.style.filter = "flipH flipV progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(style=0,opacity=100) progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Matrix(M11='1.0', sizingmethod='auto expand')";
    },

Thanks,
Akila.

Hi Akila,

This issue is fixed in later versions of RadEditor. You can verify this on the live demos.

I would recommend you to upgrade to the latest version of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX (currently 2010.3.1109).

Hi Dobromir,

Thanks for the information. yep, I saw that fix in demo version. Is there any quick fix available for the previous version? We have the source code so, if any quick fix available we will be able to apply it. Right now, we cannot upgrade immediately as this would be a big process for us as we have custom code in it. 

Thanks,
Akila.

Hi Akila,

As I mentioned in my answer to the other thread regarding the ImageManager dialog, I am not able to provide a stand-alone fix for this issue. You can try as a workaround to use the dialogs from the latest version of RadEditor, but I cannot assure you that it will not have any side effects.

I have attached ImageEditor.ascx dialog file from the latest version of RadControls (2010.3.1109).

Best wishes,
