hey,

i think the argument that is passed to the process is wrong...don't you think the string "args" should be something like this?

string args = string.Format(@"CreateCollection ""{0}"" ""{1}"" /XML", SceneGraphFile, Path.Combine(ImagesDestinationFolder, CollectionName + ".sdc"));

I have added the /XML just to get an items.xml file as well...

Hi Preethi,

you are right...you need the "" if your path has spaces inside...

Thanks for the feedback. Expect a new library with more features comgin soon... ;)

Hi Girogio!

Great post! Did a Silverlight 2 session at REMIX Sydney and Melbourne, and part of that session was done by Jose Fajardo who talked about making "every" image deep zoomable. This is a nice sample of automating the sparse image tool - Allready shared it with a guy on the Silverlight.net forum.

You should get it up on Codeplex so we can start adding features - Like turning it into a windows service that monitors a folder for incomming files and automatically converts them into deep zoom collections :)

Cheers,

Jonas Follesø

Great little tool Giorgio!

For those running 64bit vista I needed to point to the "program files (x86)" folder for the sparseimagetool.exe and also put quotes around the locations for the generated xml file and the output folder. eg:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Deep Zoom Composer>SparseImageTool.exe CreateCo

llection "C:\Users\john\AppData\Local\Giorgio Sardo\DZBatch\\1.0.0.0\SceneGraphF

ile.xml" "c:\temp\BatchCollection.sdc"

This is incredibly useful, please keep posting what you are upto with Deep Zoom. I'll make sure to post back what I'm doing with really large collections (18,000+) using your tool with a few modifications ;)

The key thing we are doing is linking to a database that describes the images in great detail, but using the z-index as a key and using your tool to put that refenence into the database as we generate the collection we can impliment filtering, sorting, search and metadata.

Oops forgot to say how to fix it ;)

So if you have the V1 code the only change is to line 118 of DeepZoomBatchHelper.cs:

string args = string.Format("CreateCollection \"{0}\" \"{1}\"",

Hope this helps,

John.

Hi gisardo,

Great Post. I am searching for it from long time.

But I want to use this for web application dynamically generating object. Please suggest me, what to do.

Thanks in advance.

Rams.

Thank you Rams,

with the current release of DeepZoom you need the SparseImageTool in order to generate images. I'm not sure about your scenario, but eventually:

1) You could install a sort of "service" in the machine containings images, that upload them to the web

2) If you have administrator rights in the Web Server, you could create a web service that receive images and generate the DeepZoom collection out of them.

Today we still have a "preview" version of deepzoom, so expect more features as it goes live :)

ciao!

Giorgio

Nice tool. Any plans to update this for Beta2? Would be neat to get this going with the new XML formats. Have you also seen this project, which doesn't use the SparseImageTool at all? : http://www.codeproject.com/KB/silverlight/DecosDeepZoom.aspx
