[FIXED] Why does my Image stretch when I crop it?

Issue

I am using the following code snippet in order to crop a image?

   function crop($width,$height) {
       $new_image = imagecreatetruecolor($width, $height);
       imagecopyresampled($new_image, $this->image, 0, 0, 0, 0, $this->getWidth(), $this->getHeight(), $width, $height );
       $this->image = $new_image;
   }

Here, $this->image is the original image $this->getWidth() and $this->getHeight() holds the original dimensions of the picture, where as $width and $height, is the crop area.

But for some reason, the crop image is resized(we can almost say it is resized).

How to fix this?

Solution

Well, the problem is giving the source dimensions. Giving the dimensions of entire image will re size instead of cropping.

This should solve the problem

   function crop($width,$height) {
       $new_image = imagecreatetruecolor($width, $height);
       imagecopyresampled($new_image, $this->image, 0, 0, 0, 0, $width, $height, $width, $height );
       $this->image = $new_image;
   }
