I\'ve spent the past 4 hours trying to find a way to create a sprite image with Compass and sass that also automatically scales each individual image for use with the backgr
Here's a mixin for resizing sprites that works beautifully
@mixin resize-sprite($map, $sprite, $percent) {
$spritePath: sprite-path($map);
$spriteWidth: image-width($spritePath);
$spriteHeight: image-height($spritePath);
$width: image-width(sprite-file($map, $sprite));
$height: image-height(sprite-file($map, $sprite));
@include background-size(ceil($spriteWidth * ($percent/100)) ceil($spriteHeight * ($percent/100)));
width: ceil($width*($percent/100));
height: ceil($height*($percent/100));
background-position: 0 floor(nth(sprite-position($map, $sprite), 2) * ($percent/100) );
}
