Hi

Q: How can I get height/width of original image (not tumbnail)?

I’m using attachment\_fu plugin. (thanks to the author!)

model has following options  
has\_attachment :content\_type =\> :image,  
:storage =\> :file\_system,  
:max\_size =\> 5000.kilobytes

as it tells, I don’t use thumbnail feature.

I uploaded image files, file were uploaded well, but width/height  
fields of model are nil. (NULL in database).

for testing, when I add thumbnail feature to model, width/height  
column of thumbnail image record have proper values (width/height of  
thumbnailed image).

Is there option of attachment\_fu for setting original image’s(not  
thumbnail) width/height field properly? (the fields are set properly  
for thumbnail images) or should I hack attachment\_fu to do that?
