Hi perhaps I am misunderstanding something, but I can use convert to resize an image, but magick produces an error.

Here is the error I get:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/bin/magick -resize 16% /Users/ibeekman/Sandbox/thesis/ch-statistical-algorithm/figures/spocs_cov_abstract_factory.png /Users/ibeekman/Sandbox/thesis/build/digital/ch-statistical-algorithm/figures/spocs_cov_abstract_factory.png
magick: no images found for operation `-resize' at CLI arg 1 @ error/operation.c/CLIOption/5246.
magick: no image to apply a property "%w" @ warning/property.c/GetMagickPropertyLetter/2561.
magick: unknown image property "%w" @ warning/property.c/InterpretImageProperties/3499.
magick: no image to apply a property "%h" @ warning/property.c/GetMagickPropertyLetter/2449.

magick: no image to apply a property "%m" @ warning/property.c/GetMagickPropertyLetter/2480.
magick: unknown image property "%m" @ warning/property.c/InterpretImageProperties/3499.

But this works just fine:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/bin/convert -resize 16% /Users/ibeekman/Sandbox/thesis/ch-statistical-algorithm/figures/spocs_cov_abstract_factory.png /Users/ibeekman/Sandbox/thesis/build/digital/ch-statistical-algorithm/figures/spocs_cov_abstract_factory.png

Obviously I am on MacOS, and it is an Intel based machine. For good measure:

Given that, AFAIK, magick is supposed to replace convert, shouldn't this work?

One thing I notice is you have -resize before the input image and it should be the other way around; perhaps that is more critical with version 7.

Yes, Bonzo is correct.

In v7, we can't put operations before we have any images to operate on. The general order is: read image, process it, write it.

ah ha! I'm actually reporting this due to UseLATEX... it seems that they need to switch the order of the arguments/flags

FYI. You (or UseLatex) is using unix style commands. IM's syntax has not been that way since IM 5. IM 6 is more forgiving that IM 7 in this regard. See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/basics/#why
