    Use GetCropUrl in new itesm

    Hi, 

    What i want to do is use a thumbnail image for my new stories on my homepage. It works when the data type alias is on the page i.e

    <img src='@CurrentPage.GetCropUrl("solution1Image", "SolutionsImageCropper")' />

    However i can't work out how to use the GetCropUrl when it's included on this razor macro which displays2 news stories. I want to get the crop url on this @page.newsThumbnailImage2 in the razor code below.

    Can anyone help. Thanks

    @inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext

    @{

    var newsItems = Model.NodeById(1075);

    var sortedItems = newsItems.Children.OrderBy("createDate descending").Take(2);

    foreach(var page in sortedItems.Where("visible"))

    {

    <p>@page.newsThumbnailImage2</p>

    }

    }

    Hi Alan

    I think that it should work if you write this

    @inherits umbraco.MacroEngines.DynamicNodeContext

 @{

     var newsItems = Model.NodeById(1075);

     var sortedItems = newsItems.Children.OrderBy("createDate descending").Take(2);

     foreach(var page in sortedItems.Where("visible"))

     {

     <img src="@page.GetCropUrl('newsThumbnailImage2', 'SolutionsImageCropper')" />     

     }

}

    Does this work?

    Thanks Jan, it comes back with an error message though:

    Too many characters in character literal

    Hi Alan,

    You cannot use GetCropUrl in a legacy macro Razor script (DynamicNode).

    You need to use it in a View, Partial View or a Partial View Macro.
