How to do basic things with PythonMagick?

Post by despens »

Dear Wizards,

I am using PythonMagick 0.9.1 on Ubuntu Linux with Python 2.6

And am struggling to do the simplest tasks :) While I understand I have to look in the MagickWand C-API for method names, most methods I would like to use seem to be absent, e.g. dither. While I found out through web searches that some methods seem to be nested and contain more methods (like for example size() containing width() and height()) I have no idea how I can find out myself how to do basic things. For example, controlling dithering to a limited color palette.

Teach me how to catch the fish so I can feed myself for a lifetime :)

dither is a setting on how to replace colors in an image after color reduction to a smaller palette of colors.
