Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

Continued from this discussion. snibgo, how would you make this arbitrary code more readable? Could easily add another loop by substituting rose: with %i for batch image processing.

fmw42: that's the answer I was looking for.
snibgo: I'll continue the syntax discussion in a new topic.

I have 2 questions regarding syntax that's loosely related to the topic. I am trying to combine these two commands: convert in.png -define modulate:colorspace=LCHuv -modulate 100,100,85 ycbcr_hc.png -hald-clut -threshold 50% mask.png and convert in.png mask.png -compose CopyOpacity -composite out.pn...

Thanks. That helps answer the second part of my initial post, giving me a better idea of how -fx works.

I also edited my other post so that it makes more sense. I'm not very good at articulating my thoughts

Blurring alone doesn't solve my problem; however, it does help smooth the feathering . Unfortunately, the feathering doesn't always work either. Anyway, I'll dodge the issue by dropping the xc:black / white s and using gradient: s exclusively. How about something more complex? E.g., how would I go a...

A midtone mask with hard B&W edges isn't ideal for photo manipulation. I would like to soften the edges in a perceptually smooth (nonlinear) and gradual (stretched out) way so that the "seams" don't show. Feathering works to a certain extent but it doesn't look natural. Any ideas? [Edi...

Hello All, I would like to process the midtones of an image. What I think I need to do: Create a mask with L* midtones as white and the rest black. Feather the mask to ensure a smooth undetectable transition. Process my image and composite with original using mask. I don't know if that's the best ap...

2. Unfortunately, this won't work on my system: %imdev%convert -quiet %i %sssOPTION% %~ni_.TIF Currently, I have to modify sigSetSd.bat to write to a file that I can access later using FOR /f "tokens=... It doesn't make much sense to me but it happens with the slashes too when I use %im% or %im...

Re: CYGWIN Puzzle → What I know so far and might be why I've been having trouble with snibgo 's scripts: Re: Permissions problem. I found a simple workaround: due to inheritance, the permissions are correctly administered when I write to a different directory than the current one. On my system, CYGW...

As the saying goes, it's about using the right tool for the job. I use ExifTool regularly with IM and PS.

Did a quick search:
ExifTool considers the "ImageSourceData" tag unsafe. Not much is understood. PS does a lot of things that are incompatible with the rest of the software world so I am not surprised.

Sorry for my ignorance—just entering the discussion, I am having trouble understanding the problem. Do the TIF files originate from PS, IM or unknown? Are we trying to assign a profile but it is failing? Or are we converting from one colorspace to another? Or something else?

The cygwin-built IM creates files with permissions different from the Windows default (a looser one). Any idea how I can prevent this? > icacls mean.png pc\User:(R,W,D,WDAC,WO) pc\None:(R) Everyone:(R) NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(F) BUILTIN\Administrators:(F) > ls -l mean.png -rw-rwxr--+ 1 User None 111355...

I linked to the Matlab help pages for the discussion on the function's arguments, "Prominence", and links to "Peak Analysis" and "Find Peaks in Data". Anyway, it was just to give you and fmw42 context to where my thoughts lie. I look forward to your implementation .

More info on what I meant by peaks (see "More About").
