Re: configure.cpp in 6.6.3-9 creates solution for AMD machin

This just bit me in 6.4.4-1 and 'twas only Pete's post that helped me fix this. I was getting the ubiquitous error, "fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'X86' conflicts with target machine type 'x64'" on all the links in the build. I'm building on a WIN32 machine, so this made no sens...

Changes to documentation pages

The ImageMagick documentation pages are undergoing a facelift for cosmetic and other reasons. Recent changes have been made to (1) begin to bring more readability and consistency to the documentation itself, (2) enhance maintainability of the code that generates the pages, and (3) to bring pages int...

Re: Draw text with images, it is possible ?

Right --- a brush approach works in a graphics program like PSP, if you do the drawing "by hand", the turning, etc., because your brain is good at following lines. That part would be hard to program (but not impossible using edge detection and such). Finding positions for birds to achieve ...

Re: Draw text with images, it is possible ?

Hi Tiffany, How many different small bird images did you use? There are actually ways of doing some similar things using IM if you're willing to do a fair bit of programming. I think something is certainly possible using PerlMagick, for example. I've also seen some graphics programs (e.g., PaintShop...

It will take many, many weeks. Maybe years. Also, I am presently not editing anything beyond the command-line-options and command-line-processing pages.

Re: Rotation/Distortion after stroking text weirdness

"try setting -virtual-pixel background -background white"

What he said. But "-virtual-pixel background" works fine for me without the "-background white". ( 6.4.4 2008-10-19 Q16 and 6.4.8-6 2009-01-11 Q16 )

Cool bug/feature.

Re: photo effect - Warholize - line art

Ha! Super slick. So -size defaults to 1x1, not bad. The earlier command is now much faster: convert ( warhol-in.jpg -colorspace gray -colors 3 ) ( xc:purple xc:"#123456" xc:yellow -append ) -interpolate bicubic -clut cat.gif That's for Windows only, of course --- no escapes of parentheses....

Cute effect. Here's one with many cat photos.

Re: Bad fonts, no error?

The font is returning bogus font metrics which prevents the label coder from computing a proper bounding box. And is there a way that IM can glean something so obviously bogus? If so, an error message could be given. Add -debug annotate to your command line and it reports the font metrics for the f...

Bad fonts, no error?

Should bad fonts give no error but still generate an image? I grabbed these two TTF's: http://www.getfreefonts.info/free_font.almontesnow.html http://www.getfreefonts.info/free_font.altea.html Following Anthony's scripts, I tried convert -background lightblue -fill blue -font almosnow.ttf -pointsize...

Re: Encipher / Decipher

Yeap it does appear that "--enable-cipher" is no longer needed. Do you know what version of IM that changed? Nope, better ask the boss. By the way, it's amusing what happens when you use -decipher on an unenciphered image. Not unexpected, of course, since there is no -enciphered flag. Wel...

Re: -extract

We get the correct results with this command: convert -extract 48x+100+100 logo: x: Not me. Not on WinXP 6.4.5 nor on 6.4.4 Linux. When the height is missing it substitutes the image height. So in this example the extract argument given is the same as 48x 4 80+100+100. Note that the above command i...
