Hi,

is there any function which can be used for automatic segment detection which would return regions usable for multiple crop?

For example if I have sequence of PNGs with transparent backgrounds like this:


I want to get the two figures as 2 cropped images (and data with positions of these cropped images in the original).

I know how to do the detection myself, but first want to ask if it's not already possible with ImageMagick itself.

Thank you,
Oldes

see my scripts, multicrop and separate at the link below. Perhaps those will help or do what you need. The first was more designed for rectangular regions and I have not tested it on irregular ones. The second needs you to convert the image into a binary mask and will separate the mask areas. I don't recall if the coordinates are provided or not, but they could be added.
