Resize Presets

Resize presets define dimension changes that run before compression. They are optional in workflows and reusable across many workflows.

Edit a Resize Preset

Use this path when a workflow should change image dimensions before compression.

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Select Resize Presets.
  3. Click Edit on an existing resize preset, or click Add resize preset.
  4. Change the preset name if needed.
  5. Choose the resize mode.
  6. Enter the value for that mode.
  7. Return to Settings -> Workflows if a workflow should use this preset.
TinyOwl settings page with the resize preset editor expanded.
Show resize mode and value controls.

Resize Modes

  • Longest edge: keep aspect ratio and limit the longest side.
  • Width: set a target width and preserve aspect ratio.
  • Height: set a target height and preserve aspect ratio.
  • Scale: resize by percentage, such as 50%.

TinyOwl currently resizes images in this workflow step. It does not provide freeform crop framing here.

Editing a resize preset does not automatically add resize to a workflow. Compression output format and compression level still come from a separate Compression Preset.

  1. Open Settings -> Workflows.
  2. Expand the workflow with Edit.
  3. Click Add resize step if the workflow does not have one.
  4. Select the Resize step.
  5. Choose the resize preset.
  6. Click Use now if this workflow should be active in the main window.

Resize always runs before compression. If you remove the resize step, the workflow keeps original dimensions.

Built-In Resize Presets

TinyOwl includes these starting points:

  • Longest edge 1600px
  • Longest edge 2048px
  • Width 1200px
  • Scale to 50%

Notes

  • Use resize presets for repeated dimension targets.
  • Keep names task-oriented, such as “Blog width 1200”.
  • Use compression presets for output format and compression level; use resize presets only for dimensions.
