Where is "Scaled to fit" max width setting (Upload button, version 3.6.4)?

If I upload an image of 900px wide, it get scaled down to 600px wide. I want to know where I can change that 600px to 800px.

I think I've searched my filesystem, database, everywhere -- can't find that setting.

Thank you.

See the "Scaling" section of

See the "Scaling" section of the "Configuration" > "Images" article. This one is for PHP, check the CKFinder Developer's Guide for other connectors.

$config['Images'] = Array(
'maxWidth' => 1600,
'maxHeight' => 1200,
'quality' => 80);

I don't think I'm using CKFinder. of course, i really have no idea. i do tech support for a software company that has CKEditor embedded with a mostly PERL back end. i'm finding ckeditor somewhat impenetrable.

images are resized -- or sized down -- only if they are larger than 600px wide. i've changed a bunch of settings that i found for '600' in all sorts of files:

* javascript/wikiwyg/lib/Document/Emitter/HTML.js

* template/widget_edit.tt2

* WidgetEditor.coffee

* etc.

I did find out that '3e3' is '3*10^3' (3000).

I've downloaded the ckeditor source and grep'ed it for '600' but didn't find much useful.

I'm just using the Upload button on ckeditor.

I've used LiveHTTPHeaders to try and figure out what's going on.

I have no idea how our app stack works, so I don't even know how I'd go about attaching a debugger to our web app to try and trace the request to find where the uploaded file is being worked on.

I have not, as of yet, found any files, PERL or otherwise, that could be doing the resizing -- something somewhere is resizing the images to 600px. I guess next I'll set up a test web app, try to integrate ckeditor, then experiment -- i should be able to find something out in a small, isolated environment.

i'd rather just pay to have someone tell me where the setting is, but maybe that's not possible w/o knowing my entire technology stack.

Oh, I see. Sorry I misread

Oh, I see. Sorry I misread your post in the first place.

Thanks for the screenshot. It looks like the creator of your application embedded some sort of a customized file uploader and it does not look like CKFinder was behind all this. (If you did have CKFinder, you would surely find a reference to ckfinder.js or other files/ config options in your app.)

Anyway, in CKEditor + CKFinder combo this is the file uploader (CKFinder) where the scaling dimensions are being set -- which is probably why you were unable to find any references to it in CKEditor source code. I would assume the creator of your uploader did the same and that this option must be set somewhere there.

Sorry I cannot help more -- wish you good luck! Maybe it's a sign that it's time to upgrade your app to the sexy new CKEditor v4 with CKFinder integrated :-)
