displaying a file in a smaller format.

[kareldeg]

Hello, I am amazed by Imagemagick, and bit by bit learning the tricks, but I can not figure out how to view a file (picture) in a small format. If I use display, it shows my picture in full format, bigger than my screen. Would there be a command on the command line to view a file in a specific dimension, without altering (resampling) the file?

Thanks a lot for helping out.

It depends on your platform. On Windows, Microsoft Photo Viewer works well for me. Some people like Irfan Viewer.

Code: Select all

display -geometry 25% file

Change 25% to whatever reduction you prefer.

Thanks for answering, I guess my question was not that clear, but thanks for the answers. And yes, glennrp, that's exactly what I was looking for.
Cheers,
