Set image size for attachment?

[Kerrith1]

I receive email images from my security camera. They arrive as an attachment and the image is automatically displayed in my TB message window. The problem is the image fills the entire message pane and so I can't see the bottom half. Is there a way to set the default size of an image in an attachment?

Thank, Kerry

Hi,
I'm not sure that Thunderbird can resize received attachments, but someone may know if it's possible.
As you may know, there are extensions & programs for reducing images before sending but you don't need this.
All the ones I've found are for reducing before sending.

Have you checked the cameras options to see if the images can be resized/reduced there before sending to Thunderbird?

Limpet's right. Thunderbird just displays what is sent to it and has no built in functionality to resize or otherwise modify the display of such images.

Try something like:

Code: Select all

/* Thunderbird userContent.css */

img.moz-attached-image[shrinktofit] {
  width: 100px !important;
  height: auto !important;
}

Edit:

If the shrinktofit feature is disabled or not applicable, then try this:

Code: Select all

/* Thunderbird userContent.css */

img.moz-attached-image {
  width: 100px !important;
  height: auto !important;
}

Did you check the camera's options yet?
Might be a simple fix?

Thanks LIMPET235,

The "Camera Live" application has different options, one of which displays the image smaller. I can still dbl click the image to make it fill up the entire message window. Thanks.

I tried adding a userContent.css file but it didn't work.
