That seems entirely workable to me.

Dimensions 2 Folders has been updated to v1.0.4: Webpage | Downloadv1.0.4 - 2009-08-18 + Added a "Separate Folder" option for matches within specified tolerances.  Esker, please give this a thorough run on your folder and let me know how it worked out. Thanks.

I'm extremely impressed with this utility - been looking for something with its core functionality for ages. I actually had a dream about it last night, and it had one more feature: the ability to sort by aspect ratio, with a percentage tolerance. This would be ideal for getting a set of pictures from your collection that will fit your screen resolution if you use a wallpaper prog that can resize pictures, like the awesome John's Background Switcher.
The options could be done thus:
- Enter selected aspect ratio (eg. 16:9): [_____]
- Enter percentage tolerance (eg. 2%): [_____]
It would also be useful to limit the sort by a minimum pixel count, so as to only get pictures over a certain size within the tolerance range specified for the aspect ratio, like so:
- Enter minimum pixel count (eg. 1200000): [_____]
It's rare that a utility makes such a strong impression on me that it occupies my dreams, so I hope that my above suggestions are sensible and might make their way into this awesome software.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

To clarify given 16:9 with a 2% tolerance:
16/9 = 1.78
1.78*0.98 = 1.74
1.78*1.02 = 1.82
You want all images with aspect ratios between 1.73 and 1.81 sorted into a folder named 16-9 (colons are forbidden in file/folder names). Is this along the lines of what you had in mind?

That pretty much nails it, yes. I know I'd make a hell of a lot of use of that specific functionality, I don't know how other people on here feel, but it would make organising my pictures so much easier. Being able to set the lower pixel count (or maybe a lower and upper limit, but let's not get too carried away) would ensure you wouldn't get pictures of too-low resolution to be used as wallpapers. Thanks so much for the quick reply, Skwire!  |

I have the aspect ratio stuff done but still need to implement the pixel total stuff.

Try this, please: Download If it checks out, we'll bump it to v1.0.5 and call it good. =] |

The only thing that's a bit cumbersome is not having the ability to stop the process once it's started, and the app not remembering the previously-used settings. But that's just nitpicking - you've done really awesome work on this! Thanks so much for taking my suggestions into account. |

Hello
Just found your software and thinks it's excellent.
Don't know if you're still able/want to work on this, and hope this doesn't offend in anyway, but purely for selfish reasons, had a few of thoughts on possible enhancements:
1. when a user inputs a list of acceptable resolutions, would it be possible to incorporate a facility for having the images put into folders with the greatest common denominator equivalents of the given resolutions, ie a 'reduce to gcd' option (eg. 1200x900 reduces to 4:3); or alternatively, a 'reduce to decimal' option (eg. 1200x900 reduces to 1.33, or 1.333 - whatever sig fig is specified);
2. in the same way that a user is allowed to input a list of acceptable resolutions, would it be possible to incorporate a facility for inputting a list of acceptable aspect ratios, using either improper fractions (eg 400:300) or decimals (eg 1.33)
Thanks

Hello again
Just thinking about my previous post and reckon it could do with revising - please consider this one instead.
Possible enhancements:
1. for the first, automatic, sort method, have alternative options:
a) sort by resolution - as currently exists
b) sort by aspect ratio - reduced to greatest common denominator
user to specify any padding, eg 1200x300 reduces to 12x3, then
pad left=0, pad right=0 -> 12x3 (default)
pad left=2, pad right=2 -> 12x03
pad left=3, pad right=2 -> 012x03
c) sort by aspect ratio - reduced to decimal
user to specify sig fig before and after decimal point, eg 400x300 reduces to 1.33, then
before point=0, after point=2 -> 1.33 (default)
before point=3, after point=4 -> 001.3333
2. for the second, list driven, sort method, have alternative option:
in the same way that a user is allowed to input a list of acceptable resolutions,
would it be possible to incorporate a facility for inputting a list of acceptable aspect ratios,
using either improper fractions (eg 400x300, 040x030, etc) or decimals (eg 1.33, 001.333, etc)
3. for all sorting have the option to sort portrait equivalents in the the same folder as their landscape counterparts,
eg, have a check box 'inverse ratios in same folder' or similar, which if ticked,
would for example allow all images 3:4 to be sorted into the same folder as all images 4:3
Sorry about revised post - will sleep now!
Thanks again

Don't know if you're still able/want to work on this, and hope this doesn't offend in anyway Hehehe...none taken.  1. when a user inputs a list of acceptable resolutions, would it be possible to incorporate a facility for having the images put into folders with the greatest common denominator equivalents of the given resolutions, ie a 'reduce to gcd' option (eg. 1200x900 reduces to 4:3); or alternatively, a 'reduce to decimal' option (eg. 1200x900 reduces to 1.33, or 1.333 - whatever sig fig is specified);
2. in the same way that a user is allowed to input a list of acceptable resolutions, would it be possible to incorporate a facility for inputting a list of acceptable aspect ratios, using either improper fractions (eg 400:300) or decimals (eg 1.33) I think both of these requests could be handled by making the aspect ratio section into a list-driven setup like the resolution section. 1. for the first, automatic, sort method, have alternative options:
a) sort by resolution - as currently exists
b) sort by aspect ratio - reduced to greatest common denominator
user to specify any padding, eg 1200x300 reduces to 12x3, then
pad left=0, pad right=0 -> 12x3 (default)
pad left=2, pad right=2 -> 12x03
pad left=3, pad right=2 -> 012x03
c) sort by aspect ratio - reduced to decimal
user to specify sig fig before and after decimal point, eg 400x300 reduces to 1.33, then
before point=0, after point=2 -> 1.33 (default)
before point=3, after point=4 -> 001.3333 I want to leave the first option as is since that was what the initial program request was for. Also, I don't understand the need for all those padding requests. Maybe it's so stuff lines up in a file manager that's using a fixed-width font? At any rate, I think it's out of scope for this application and would be better suited to a dedicated file/folder renaming application. 2. for the second, list driven, sort method, have alternative option:
in the same way that a user is allowed to input a list of acceptable resolutions,
would it be possible to incorporate a facility for inputting a list of acceptable aspect ratios,
using either improper fractions (eg 400x300, 040x030, etc) or decimals (eg 1.33, 001.333, etc) As I mentioned earlier, I think I'll change the aspect ratio section into a list-driven interface. Again, I don't understand the need for all the padded value stuff. 3. for all sorting have the option to sort portrait equivalents in the the same folder as their landscape counterparts,
eg, have a check box 'inverse ratios in same folder' or similar, which if ticked,
would for example allow all images 3:4 to be sorted into the same folder as all images 4:3 I'll consider this as well. Apologies for the late reply; I've been on a business trip all week. |

Hello
Many thanks for the comprehensive reply.
I'd honestly appreciate implementation of any of the items in my list so thanks for your consideration.
The padding stuff was all about me trying to figure out some anal way of sorting my photos - quite understand your comments on that - no problem.
Thanks again and look forward to your new version.

Hi, what do you think about making SymLinks as an Option? This would be greate, so there is no space wasted and the pictures can be sorted with different options in different folders... |

what do you think about making SymLinks as an Option? Apologies, but there are so many limits, gotchas and caveats when working with these that I think it's just asking for trouble. Also, I don't run Vista or Windows 7, except in VMs for testing purposes, so trying to develop this would be even more difficult. |

v1.0.7 - 2013-03-06
+ Added options to the "Sort all" method which allows for sorting based
on only width, only height, or both. (Thanks, Aimee)
+ Added "Match/Does not match" option to the aspect ratio sort method.
* Swapped the uppper/lower total pixels range option fields.
