Way to make coordinate switch on fixed sizes?
April 28, 2008 11:19AM
Is there a way to make the coordinate switch active for fixed sizes? I can only seem to do that for ranged sizes.

For example we set up and NAME A BANNER a "2'x4' 13 oz banner" which we consider a horizontal banner and don't care which measurement comes first.

If it is a vertical banner, we still call it a 2'x4' banner, because typical customer doesn't know or care about which number comes first.

We want to use fixed sizes, but the coordinate seems to be a problem.

Also, when using ranged sizes, it will present the "product" screen when you change coordinates. We currently have that screen non-accessible to our customers, so this presents a problem with ranged sizes.

Any advice?

Thanks

Fixed sizes are really more complex than ranged, and doing switch there globally would not be an easy task.

My advice would simply be to made 2x4 and 4x2 options.
They would be exactly the same thing, but inside the same product. You would just need to add another fixed size with switched coords in
Configure Products => Configure Sizes => FIXED SIZES => Add New

And name them (Name to show)
2'x4' 13 oz horizontal banner
and
2'x4' 13 oz vertical banner

About ranged returning to products after coord switch, you're right.
I fixed it in the developement version, will be fixed online as well in 3/4 days max

Hope this helps,

Alex
