##Resize Images by Custom Height/Width
This custom action resizes images by a custom height. The resized images are moved to a subfolder and the originals remain in the working folder. If resizing by width is desired then remove the x
from the following part of the command: x$CUSTOM_COMMAND
and change the text Enter Height
to Enter Width
. This custom action requires YAD and ImageMagick be installed.

CUSTOM_COMMAND=$(yad --entry --title "Custom Command" --text "Enter Height:") ;

##Resize Images by Maximum Height/Width
This custom action resizes images by a maximum height. So in a folder of 10 images, if only one image has a height over 600 height only that image will be resized. NOTE: The resized image(s) will replace the original image(s), so make a copy of the original(s) before converting. To change to maximum height replace both instances of 600
in the below command. If resizing by maximum width is desired then remove the x
from the following part of the command: x600
. ImageMagick must be installed for this custom action.

identify -format '%w %h %f\n' *.jpg | awk '$2 > 600 {sub(/^[^ ]* [^ ]* /, ""); print}' | tr '\n' '\0' | xargs -0 mogrify -resize 'x600>' %N
