Equal Height Project Images / Lazysizes Fixed Ratio ?

Hey, can you show me a screenshot?

Sure, here you go:

Hm, it seems that your landscape image should have a different aspect ratio, huh. I think you have to rethink how you calculate your sizes.

I got 12 columns, 1% column gutter.
My portrait images are 1333x2000 and they cover 3 columns. I want my landscape image to have the same height but cover 6 columns. You can achieve this by calculating the size you need:

4 times 3-column-1333px-width-images would fill out 100%:
4 * 1333px = 5.332px

Our column gutter is one percent: 5.332px/100*1 = 53.32px
A landscape image that would cover the same area as two portrait images with a column gutter in-between would be:
height: 2000px
width: 1333px * 2 + 53.32px = 2719px

In the end it's just about the aspect ratio.
We could also use an image of 1024*753 for the landscape image. How did I find that out? With this:

Also this is useful for testing sizes:

Hey Armin, many thanks for your reply. Will try this as soon as possible.
I was hoping for an automated option which automatically adjusts the size of the image but I guess that's a bit too complicated and might just crop parts of my images in a weird way, I guess?!

[arminunruh]

Nope, there's no automated option for that :(

Hey Armin, I have exactly the same problem and somehow your calculation example doesn't help me.

I want to place 4x5 images next to 5x4 images without the same problem as seen in the lrs screenshot. With your calculation example, the line can be filled perfectly, but then portrait and landscape format have different image formats, which in my case is not desirable.
The image height is identical for all images with 1000px. The portrait formats are 800px wide and the landscape formats 1250px.

Is there a way to help me?

Thanks in advance!

oh hmmm i don't really understand your problem
can you like show it to me with some screenshots

[benjamin_]

Sure, here you go

hey armin, is there a chance you can help me with that?

Dear @benjamin_
mhm. There is not really a good solution for this.
You can try to do some CSS magic or even use jQuery to force them all to be the same height…
Best!
