I see that I can get the version string like so: $image = new Image::Magick; print($image->Get('version')); But the 'version' attribute doesn't appear in the doc file, http://www.imagemagick.org/script/perl-magick.php#get-attribute Am I on shaky ground using this "undocumented" feature? Rick

From the command line, the following generates a triangle filled with black, so it seems the default is the same as if adding -fill black . convert -size 150x100 xc:white -stroke red -strokewidth 4 -draw "polygon 20,20 130,20 130,80" filltest-cmd.png However, in PerlMagick, the following g...

Hello All, Has this issue been resolved by anyone? Every thread I find with this error just dies out without an answer. I'm receiving the same error running W2K3 Server, IIS6.0, Perl 5.8.6-build 811, and ImageMagick 6.2.8 Q16. If anyone has resolved this issue, please point me in the right directio...

$image->Set( page=>'0x0+0+0' ); is equivalent to the +repage command-line option. Now I'm just curious - shouldn't / couldn't the commandline-style geometry work with Crop(), if for no other reason than to make code a bit more compact (and maybe faster)? Or perhaps another option to Crop() to force...

Fabulous, Mr. Wizard!

I appreciate your speedy replies but worry that you never sleep.

Is it possible that there is no repage available in PerlMagick's Crop()? I do not see a repage operator in the PerlMagick doc, so I tried forcing the issue using the geometry string (!) á la the command line. use Image::Magick; $image1 = new Image::Magick; $image1->Read('logo:'); $image2 = $image1-...

Doh! "The doc says tile=>image-handle", just like I said!



But it's great - that makes it much more versatile than a filename, too.

Thanks,

Rick

The doc says tile=>image-handle is a parameter for Draw but I can't get it to work. I can fill a polygon with a color: use Image::Magick; my $image = new Image::Magick(size=>'300x300'); $image->Read('xc:transparent'); $image->Draw(primitive=>'polygon', points=>"100,50 100,200 200,150 200,100&qu...

The simplest solution is to download and install either the dynamic ImageMagick Q16 or Q8 Windows distribution and install. Be sure to check the box in the installer that tells it to install PerlMagick. For those of us who compile ImageMagick on Windows from sources, this "simplest solution&qu...

Another data point to ponder. The project's default configuration is to build a debug version. Changing it to a release version will produce an exe that does not crash. Pete You're zeroing in. I watched what showed up in the the debug log file (configure.log) and found that it ran okay until it got...

I'm curious as to why you "can't post to magic-users" When I first got on the list I was blocked because my ISP's domain was in the SORBS database and imagemagick doesn't post messages from anyone who posts from a domain in SORBS. Actually, I haven't checked recently to see if they're sti...

Although Pete's patch works, its a hack. It does not identify the real source of the problem. Try replacing MessageBox() with sleep(1). See if its a timing problem. If not, MessageBox() might be initializing something in the MFC. If someone finds another solution to the problem, post it here. Thank...

We posted your message to magick-users. Thanks for the patch. Many thanks, indeed! It fixed the same problem for me. By the way, Pete, I'm curious as to why you "can't post to magic-users". I'm having intermittent trouble myself, but that's a bug of another color. I may just switch to thi...
