default card back file and changing card sizes

[Programmer]

Hi Kenn,

It is important that when you design a deck or add a card back to an existing deck that all the cards, including the back, are the same size and shape, or this kind of problem can occur. What I think you will find is happening is that all the cards take their cue from the 00 card, which is one of the reasons it is very important that every deck has one of these. This means that the back will also be distorted to the width height ratio of the zero card.

I should also point out that there is no default orphalese back image as such. The Options form can be used to set a preference for a colour gradient or a repeating tile, but this is used by the program to create a card back on the fly (again, taking the cue for size and shape from the 00 card).

Does this explain what is happening? If not, please send me a screen shot (or even email me the full deck) to answers@orphalese.net and I will take a look.

Cheers
Richard

Yes, this appears to explain what has happened. In this case Orphalese created a card back on the fly. But it didn't take the card cue from the 00 card because it was named 0.jpg instead of 00.jpg. I renamed it to 00.jpg, refreshed and the cards images appear in their proper ratio. Thanks!
