Wands blend to implement colorize don't match with CLI
Posted: 2014-08-25T07:57:45-07:00
Hi. I tried to convert a pretty well-known snippet for image color-tone from CLI version to Wand:
I assume this codes does this:
1) Read input to layer, let's call it layer[0] (the bottom one)
2) Clone layer[0] to colorized version and put layer[1] (the middle one)
3) Clone layer[0] to grayscale and put it to layer[2] (the top one)
4) Set some magic (have no clue what does this two args 100,0 in compose means)
5) Set blending mode to... blend
6) Finally blend layers and write output
It works well from CLI, but I stucked on 4 or 5 step in c code.
I split task to subtasks. This CLI code:
Transforms to
In this step, result from CLI and Wand are the same.
So far, so good. Now I added command with gray layer[2], but without compose:args
But this is already makes things failed: CLI version is almost the same as input, while Wand result is "washed" but overexposed (too bright). I assume that main problem is with compose:args, especially with different defaults for CLI and Wand. But I can't find out how to make it the same, or, even better, to make my Wand program to yield same as CLI result. I tried naive
which doesn't work – nothing really changed. I tried to change wand in this call to gray layer or colored layer, I tried even to set same args to all three wands. I tried to swap arguments order or to set extereme values, like 10000. Some times this changes picture dramatically, but I still can't get desired result.
My ImageMagick version is
I run it on MacOS Yosemite, compiler is clang.
