Hi Folks

Program:
-----><8-----
#!/usr/bin/perl

use Image::Magick;

# ----------------

print "Image::Magick V $Image::Magick::VERSION. \n";

my($image)	= Image::Magick -> new(size => '100x100');
my($result) = $image -> Read('xc:white');
die $result if $result;
my($depth)	= $image -> Get('depth');

print "Depth: $depth. \n";

$result = $image -> Draw
(
	primitive	=> 'polyline',
	stroke		=> 'red',
	points		=> '20,30 40,80 50,90 20,30',
);
die $result if $result;

$depth = $image -> Get('depth');

print "Depth: $depth. \n";

print "Set depth to 4. \n";
$image -> Set(depth => 4);

$depth = $image -> Get('depth');

print "Depth: $depth. \n";
-----><8-----

Output:
-----><8-----
Image::Magick V 6.2.8.
Depth: 1.
Depth: 8.
Set depth to 4.
Depth: 8.
-----><8-----

Firstly, any ideas why this code does not set the image depth?

Secondly, it'd be good to have access to a variable like
$Image::Magick::VERSION, eg: $Image::Magick::QUANTUM, which would return the
quantum depth at which the package was compiled, to match the Q8/Q16 displayed
by the command line programs.

Hello,

the manual page of convert says, that the option "-clip-path id" would
"clip along a named path from the 8BIM profile". Actually it does not
seem to work.
The outputfile looks just like the inputfile.
My command-line looks like this:

convert inputfile.psd -clip-path "pathname" outfile

Maybe you can help me, to find out what I'm making wrong or whether it
is a bug?
I tried this with IM-versions from 6.2.6 to 6.2.8

Regards,

Timo
