I think what I last sent was to Michael and Don only, so here is a restatement to the group and to get archived. Graphic image sizing changes require modifications to two areas: the image element and the object element in the language reference. I am suggesting we don't change the scale attribute in %display-atts, since that is mostly about scaling text. (However, we might correct "accomodation" to be "accommodation" in the Description of the scale attribute.) I am not suggesting we add the scale attribute to the object element at this time (though I wouldn't be opposed if the TC felt that made more sense). No changes are needed in the Architectural Specification. The image element ================= http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.0/langspec/image.html first para ---------- Replace: The <image> element has optional attributes that indicate whether the placement of the included graphic or artwork should be inline (like a button or icon), or on a separate line for a larger image. with: The <image> element has optional attributes that indicate whether the placement of the included graphic or artwork should be inline (like a button or icon) or on a separate line for a larger image. There are also optional attributes that indicate the size to which the included graphic or artwork should be scaled. (That is, remove the bogus comma in the existing sentence and add the additional sentence.) under Attributes ---------------- Replace the height attribute's description with: Indicates the vertical dimension for the resulting image display. If necessary, the image is scaled to the specified size. The value of this attribute is a real number optionally following by a unit of measure from the set of pc, pt, px, in, cm, mm, em (picas, points, pixels, inches, centimeters, millimeters, and ems respectively). The default unit is px (pixels). Possible values include: "5", "5in", and "10.5cm". If a height value is specified and no width value is specified, the width will be scaled by the same factor as the height. If both a height value and width value are specified, some implementations may not be able to scale the two directions by a different factor and may therefore ignore one of the two values. Replace the width attribute's description with: Indicates the horizontal dimension for the resulting image display. If necessary, the image is scaled to the specified size. The value of this attribute is a real number optionally following by a unit of measure from the set of pc, pt, px, in, cm, mm, em (picas, points, pixels, inches, centimeters, millimeters, and ems respectively).

If a width value is specified and no height value is specified, the height will be scaled by the same factor as the width. If both a height value and width value are specified, some implementations may not be able to scale the two directions by a different factor and may therefore ignore one of the two values. Add the "scale" attribute to the attribute list: Description: Specifies a percentage by which to scale the image in the absence of any specified image height or width; a value of 100 implies that the image should be presented at its intrinsic size. If a value has been specified for this image's height or width attribute (or both), the scale attribute is ignored. Data Type: NMTOKEN whose value space is an unsigned integer Value: #IMPLIED Required?: No [One can see "Specifing the Content Area" in the DocBook documentation for imagedata at http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/imagedata.html for more background on this topic.] The object element ================== http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.0/langspec/object.html under Attributes ---------------- Replace the height attribute's description with: Indicates the vertical dimension for the resulting object display. If necessary, the object is scaled to the specified size. The value of this attribute is a real number optionally following by a unit of measure from the set of pc, pt, px, in, cm, mm, em (picas, points, pixels, inches, centimeters, millimeters, and ems respectively). The default unit is px (pixels). Possible values include: "5", "5in", and "10.5cm".
