Problems using remap

[slavka012]

I'm doing some work on images, and I one thing that I needed was all the images to have the same color maps.

The initial graphics was prepared in Photoshop, so that was easily done.

Now, at the next stage, I need reorder the colors according to their popularity. I extracted the histogram info from the combined image, then created a 16x16 image containing the colors I need in a specific order. Its color map is exactly what I need.

Here is the palette image, and the one I'm try to apply the palette to:




Now, when I execute

Code: Select all

convert All-Sizes_05.gif -remap outpal.gif tmp.pcx

the color table gets reordered all right, but not to the requested order!

What is wrong? Any help would be highly appreciated.

IMv6 does not preserve color order in the palette.

This is something that has been requested for the current IMv7 (alpha) development.

EG; preserve the original or requested palette an use it if all colors fit that palette.

Thanks for your answer. The funny thing is it does work on PCX files, just not on gifs. Unfortunately I could not use it on PCX since I need to preserve transparency info.

Anyway, I hope that this feature will be implemented soon.
