Use the [imagetools](https://fuseopen.com/docs/fuse/imagetools/imagetools.html) API for that.

hey @Anders_Bondehagen most of urls at [forums.fusetools.com](http://forums.fusetools.com) redirect to 404. If am correct i think they’re getting appended with incorrect BaseURL  
[https://www.fusetools.com](https://www.fusetools.com) instead of [https://fuseopen.com/](https://fuseopen.com/) + relative\_path (docs/fuse/imagetools/imagetools)

Its an old link that they’re not redirecting, I relinked it for ya to fuseopen domain but if you can’t find an old link, try googling for “fuseopen [topic]”, e.g. fuseopen imagetools
