Hello,

How can I change the background color for a repage action?
I get black zones where the original image doesn't overlay.
Apparently sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't...

Thx in advance...


Friendly regards,
Roel

use -background somecolor -flatten

convert logo: -resize 320x320 -repage 320x320+0+40 -background skyblue -flatten logo_tmp.jpg

but you have to figure out how much to offset. You are better using

convert logo: -resize 320x320 -background skyblue -gravity center -extent 320x320 logo_tmp.jpg

if you want it automatically centered.
