[magick-users] Hello, I have a couple questions, layering & command seq.

[Gary Stien]

Thank you incredibly. I have run into a bump in the road. For some
reason, the BMP generated file from convert.exe, does not read well into
photoshop or into this other native graphic tool I have,... i.e. I get a
cannot parse the file error basically. However, oddly, the image does
seem to appear when I display it in a Windows preview gui, and so
something was created and it was successful from that standpoint... just
a inter-file compatibility issue... the third-party tools i design with
in Windows doesn't seem to like the bmp. Are there different ways
to generate or re-mix a BMP from convert? I note photoshop allows to save
BMP's as Windows or Unix format, and just curious if maybe I can try
different conversion methods to make my file compatible. :)  Also too,
this has happened with a PNG I created, ... when I attempted to load the
convert generated PNG into a high level windows code structure.  It
was converted from PNG into a raw HexData.... but didn't like the PNG for
some reason, even though it seems to 'load' and display.  Just not making
ends meet here.  Any suggestions? :)

  convert image_one.png image_two.png -geometry +0+50 -composite
  output_image.png

  this offsets the postion of image two by 0 in x and 50 in y.


  see: http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/compose/




  convert image_one.png \( -size 600x10 xc:#000000 \) -geometry +0+50
  -composite output_image.png


  This unix syntax, but on Windows, I believe you just use ( ) rather
  than \( \)
