[Bug] Resulting ambiance does not resemble crop
asked 2015-09-24 19:18:03 +0300
When cropping a picture for an ambiance in-phone, the resulting background picture should match the chosen crop. Currently when creating the ambiance from a larger picture, only the center part of the given picture used is used without visual feedback on what will actually end up in the ambiance. This also happens when using the 'ambiance crop mode' and makes creating one in the phone very fiddly.
Really difficult if not impossible to get a background that you want by using "Create ambience". There's an odd zoom applied to the pictures when those are used as backgrounds. Nothing prepares the user for the actual outcome when, as Sahry put it, there's no visual feedback available when creating ambiences.
Took two example screenshots of what I wanted to see on the background (left side pic) and what I actually got on the background (right side pic): Imgur.com
Also, the picture editor's crop functionality seems to offer square aspect ratio to both square and ambience. Shouldn't ambience have something more closer to rectangle?
