Resize image to square (1:1 ratio) while retaining original image aspect ratio

[kewlb0t]

I've been trying to get a specific resize result using chaiNNer but I'm having trouble making it work.

I've left an example of what I'm trying to accomplish in the attachment

Any help is appreciated.

Use the math node to get the maximum value of the height and width, which you can get using the get dimensions node. Then use another math node to get the difference between each dimension and its max, then the pad node to pad each dimension with the result. That should do it

There may be a better way to do this but at least that'll work

That would be after a regular resize of course -- for that the easiest way would be using the resize to side node if you want the largest dimension to become 458 no matter which side

Hey Joey, thanks for the help. Just want to make sure I'm doing this correctly.
For the second step, do you mean I'm subtracting both the height and the width each from the max?
Here's how my nodes are set up for reference:

I know this specific use case might not be useful for most people who use this application but I think this could potentially help some people who use chaiNNer for work tasks. I work in e-commerce and chaiNNer is really useful for cleaning up product images, I just wish there was an option to keep the image aspect ratio the same when scaling 1:1.

Imageresizer.com has this great option that lets you unlock the aspect ratio and let's you scale the image however you like without causing the image to be deformed. There's also an option to fill the alpha channel with a color when converting a PNG to something like JPG. I could just use this website for my images, but I feel like chaiNNer is a lot faster and works best with my workflow. I think these could potentially be useful features for chaiNNer in the future.
