Hello,

I'm trying to combine multiple images with transparent background into single one with transparent background too.

I combine empty image Canvas.png (just transparent background) as canvas with image Source.png (yellow circle on transparent background):


With script like this:
composite -gravity center -background none Source.png Canvas.png Result.png

Here is result image with some "dark outline", which I need to remove:


I tried so many combinations and -alpha settings, but without success.

Can You help me please?
Thank You, Tomas

On IM v6.9.1-0, I don't get the dark outline.

What version are you on? Perhaps you need to upgrade.

I used this version:
ImageMagick-6.9.1-2-Q16-x64-dll

I'm not sure, if I'm doing something wrong, but if I try just draw a circle to transparent background, I have the same problem, as described above ("dark outline"). (Win 7, *.bat, ImageMagick-6.9.1-3-Q16-x64-dll.exe)

convert -size 100x100 xc:none -fill pink -draw "circle 50,50 40,10" Test.png


Do You anybody have a working example of drawing at transparent background?
Thx. T.

For IM v6.9.1-0 in Windows 8.1, this works fine for me. At the antialiasing, I get the same pink as in the central opaque area. Your result has a darker pink, that becomes darker with increasing transparency, to fully transparent black. The graduation in opacity is correct, but the colour shouldn't change in the antialiased region.

This seems to be a bug, so I'm moving it to the bugs forum.

We can reproduce the problem you posted and have a patch in ImageMagick 6.9.1-4 Beta, available by sometime tomorrow. Thanks.

Thank you
T.
