[RESOLVED] possible bug draw IM 6.7.6.7 Q16

IM 6.7.6.7 Q16 Mac OSX Snow Leopard

Why aren't all these images antialiased when using -draw?

convert -size 100x100 xc:black -fill white -draw "line 0,0 99,99" 1tmp1.png
convert -size 100x100 xc:black -fill white -draw "line 0,0 99,99" -channel rgba -alpha on 1tmp2.png
convert -size 100x100 xc:black -fill white -antialias -draw "line 0,0 99,99" 1tmp3.png
convert -size 100x100 xc:black -fill white -antialias -draw "line 0,0 99,99" -alpha on 1tmp4.png
convert -size 100x100 xc:black -fill white -stroke white -draw "line 0,0 99,99" 1tmp5.png
convert -size 100x100 xc:black -fill white -stroke white -strokewidth 1 -draw "line 0,0 99,99" 1tmp6.png
convert -size 100x100 xc:black -fill white -stroke white -strokewidth 2 -draw "line 0,0 99,99" 1tmp7.png

Am I missing something or misunderstanding when -draw does antialiasing with lines?

[magick]

The lines are antialiased. Type

• display 1tmp1.png

and click on the middle button for the magnify window. Press 4 while the pointer is in the magnify window. Do you see aliasing?

For some reason I cannot get into the zoom mode on my Mac Snow Leopard. I used to be able under Tiger. I don't know what is wrong,yet. I don't have a middle button, but it used to work with option-click or control-click, I do not remember.

But I have zoomed the image in several viewers other than display and they all show no antialiasing. Perhaps it is because the image is actually binary and there is no alpha channel?

The verbose info does not show any alpha channel nor does it show a histogram:

Can you try on your Mac Lion when you get a chance?

[fmw42]

Here is an example of what I get. You can download the image and see if you see any anti-aliasing.

convert -size 100x100 xc:black -fill white -draw "line 0,0 99,99" test_antialias.png



This a piece of the image zoomed 2000%




Edit:

display 1tmp1.png

and click on the middle button for the magnify window. Press 4 while the pointer is in the magnify window. Do you see aliasing?

I edited the X11 preferences to emulate a 3 button mouse and now I can zoom as per the above and the image still shows no sign of anti-aliasing.

Also see Draw and Colorspace....
http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/draw/#colorspace

Drawing in sRGB colorspace often looks aliased. While doing so in linear RGB colorspace looks smoother (anti-aliased).

However Draw is doing anti-aliasing, unless +antialias option is used.

[fmw42]

OK. Visually I cannot see any aliasing. However, this shows it is there but the values are rather few and dark.
