Gravity and justify...

Hello,
As suggested by fmw42,this is an enhancement request.
Topic : Writing a text with justify argument relative to a point

I think I understand (~) the -gravity option. But for justify text, I didn't found any existing option. So what about creating an -justify option ? or maybe, to be as complete as svg, 2 options : text-align and vertical-align ? (W3C SVG). I think (?) all needed values are already present in the -debug annotate "Metric line"...

I suppose that the problem will be when both of the 2 options (gravity & justify) may be present in one command-line.
But write

Code: Select all

convert -size 400x300 -gravity South -vertical-align middle -annotate 0 test ...
doesn't look uninteresting to me.

This has been a 'want' since IMv6 first came out. I will be ensuring that it is included in IMv7 but that will be at least a year away.

At the moment the programming is concentrating on low level pixel handling (allowing up to a hundred channels rather than the current 3,4, or 5 channels of image data), low level speed increases, and for me the CLI interface to enable 'stream' or 'pipeline' operations, and setting handling.
