Draw(tile=> ...) not implemented?

[rmabry]

The doc says tile=>image-handle is a parameter for Draw but I can't get it to work.

I can fill a polygon with a color:

Code: Select all

use Image::Magick;

my $image = new Image::Magick(size=>'300x300');
$image->Read('xc:transparent');

$image->Draw(primitive=>'polygon', points=>"100,50 100,200 200,150 200,100", fill=>'green');

$image->Write(filename=>'polyfill.png');

But I cannot fill (tile) the polygon with an image:

Code: Select all

use Image::Magick;

my $image = new Image::Magick(size=>'300x300');
$image->Read('xc:transparent');

$image->Draw(primitive=>'polygon', points=>"100,50 100,200 200,150 200,100", tile=>'mytile.png');

$image->Write(filename=>'polyfill.png');

Is that not the correct syntax? The following command-line versions both work fine:

Code: Select all

convert -size 300x300 xc:transparent -fill green -draw "polygon 100,50 100,200 200,150 200,100" mytry.png

convert -size 300x300 xc:transparent -tile mytile.png -draw "polygon 100,50 100,200 200,150 200,100" mytry.png

What's the problem?

The tile parameter requires an image reference. You have an image filename.

The tile parameter requires an image reference. You have an image filename.

Doh! "The doc says tile=>image-handle", just like I said!



But it's great - that makes it much more versatile than a filename, too.

Thanks,
