Hi folks,

have a little problem.

i tried the following

convert -thumbnail 135x108 -extent 135x108 -background transparent 01.jpg 01.png

the problem now is, that the 01.png picture didnt get the transparent information, so the background is black.
IM is used on a SLES 10 sp 2 in Version 6.2.5-16.26

Is there still a workaround? Or do you know how it works?

thanks to all

We tried your command with the latest ImageMagick release, 6.5.4-2, and it worked as expected. Its a possible there is a bug in your release of ImageMagick.

yes, i updated to 6.4.3 and now it works.

thanks so far

Also you are better of doing the image processing in the right order, or their is no gurantee you will get the operation order expected,

EG: You may also want a -gravity center before the -extent
