[TYPO3-core] RFC Feature #10725: Integrate possibility to determine maximum of multiple values in GIFBUILDER

[Benjamin Mack]

Hey Olly,

shouldn't we do like a

XY.maxW =
XY.maxH =

or XY.max =

to keep in style with the rest of TS?

max(30,30)

seems odd to me as an old TS user :)

All the best,
Benni.
