-alpha transparent not works

Post by vuthecuong »

Hi,
Curently I’m learning –alpha section of IM at Usage/basic.
It said:
================================
Transparent
Similarly this ensures the alpha channel is 'active' but fully transparent.
convert moon.png -alpha transparent alpha_transparent.png
================================

But when I ran convert moon.png -alpha transparent alpha_transparent.png
It throw error: convert: UnrecognizedAlphaChannelType ‘transparent’ .
I’m I missed something in command of the article is wrong?
I’m in winXP, IM 16bit 6.4.0

Thanks and regards,
