[SOLVED] create tile image on the fly

[Draoidh]

I have created a tile image and, in a separate step, I create a tiled canvas:

Code: Select all

convert \( +size   xc:red xc:yellow xc:green  +append \) tile.png
convert -size 60x40 tile:tile.png   tiled.png

I would like to do this in a oner. How?

Code: Select all

convert \( +size  xc:red xc:yellow xc:green  +append -write mpr:tile +delete \) -size 60x40 tile:mpr:tile  a.png

There are three ways.. you found one...
Others are shown in, Tiling In-memory Images

PS: using distort to tile images is extremely versatile, is it not only tiles in different ways (mirror tile for example) but with distortions too.
