animated text in cli?

[mediman]

I use IM on commandline and all works great, but there are two things i cant figure out since month.

1. i want to give an text an animated texture. i tried it in the way magickstudio makes it, but no animation. i think it has to do with the compose -atop.

anyone can tell me an example (i am using CLI)

2. i want to give some thumbnails a "bubble glas effect", i have no idea how to do this ...

anyone can help me with this? ideas?

thx in advance

For Animation and Text overlaying for animations see IM Examples
http://www.cit.gu.edu.au/~anthony/graph ... annotating
and the next few example sets.

Actually I recomend you read both IM Example sections on Animation Basics and Animation Modifications. Yes more examples are needed but I needed to get color redction out of the way before I could get back to animation examples.


As for Bubble Glass, Look at the Aqua and Gel examples in the advanced section of IM. It produces something like you want.
