How?

Problem seems to be the the Mac PREVIEW tool must be reading the EXIF data and changing the aspect ratio. Seems as though the browsers don't show this, nor does IM display. Sorry for the false alarm. However, it is odd that this only happens when I run the script using mpc and it does not happen wi...

Pete.
Merry Christmas Fred and All

Happy Holidays to you too, Pete.

On Windows those caption and label commands don't work. IM 6.4.6 Q8 label:@- causes this error: convert: unable to read blob `-': No such file or directory @ blob.c/FileToBlob/868. imconvert: missing an image filename `cap.png' @ convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/2710. whereas caption:@- causes this: c...

The Seasons Best Wishes to you... and to you too :-) @magick/Anthony Although text:- reads the standard input, I can't get caption:- or label:- to do the same thing. Are they supposed to work or is this function limited to text:-? Pete Pete, These work for me (IM 6.4.8-1 Q16): echo "Merry Chri...

see barrel distortion http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/distorts/#barrel see Anthony's rose examples you need to combine half of two images, top half of bulge (barrel) and bottom half of pinch (pincushion) rose.jpg http://www.fmwconcepts.com/misc_tests/bulgepinch/rose.jpg convert rose.jpg -matte -vir...

fmw... I'm limited to gif for the final output. to try and get the best edges on the rotated image... I'm floodfilling the white to the edges, but its ending up black. The commands above work also for .gif output format, but as gif is binary transparency, off or on and png is variable transparency,...

Not an easy problem unless it is absolutely blank.

These all seems to work for me with transparent backgrounds in IM 6.4.7-10 Q16 convert rose: -matte -background none -rotate 20 rose_r20.png convert rose: -alpha on -background none -rotate 20 rose_r20b.png convert rose: -alpha activate -background none -rotate 20 rose_r20c.png convert rose: -channe...

Do you consider complication 1 and 2 as blank or not blank?

Hey, thanks for the tip.. but -identify/-write info: are giving me the info for the source file, I would like the convert to print info about the target file after it has converted it... and if it fails it won't print anything/something else, the same as the vb.net com dll does... any ideas? You co...

OK. Then any restrictions on the value that can be used for the seed? for example, must it be an integer between 0 and quantumrange?

The random images will always differ if a seed is not specified or if two commands have different seeds (i.e. -seed 17171 and -seed 17172). If the seeds are the same, the resulting images will be the same. If one does not set the seed and leaves it to IM to do for example with convert -size 100x100...

How do I specify a new seed when generating a random noise image? For example: Try this command: convert -size 100x100 xc: -seed 171713 +noise Random tmp.png OK, perhaps I misunderstand. If I leave off the -seed, and create two random images with two separate command lines, will the two images be t...

add -monitor to your command line
