How to Set Aspect Ratios on Images?

5 replies
Last updated: Sep 7, 2020
Hey, quick one - is there anyway I can get info about the dimensions of image that are being uploaded? Want to use them to set some aspect ratio styling. Thanks!

Hey Callum, that information is stored in the image asset object under 
metadata.dimensions
. You can query it like this for example:
*[_type == "post"] {
  _id,
  "image":image.asset->
  {
    "dimensions": metadata.dimensions
  }
}

Great thank you! My images are somewhat more nested than that but will see if I can get it to work

Let me know if you need any help navigating the nesting 🙂
