Problem with -annotate and -stroke
Posted: 2007-09-20T11:42:14-07:00
Hi folks,
here is my problem: I run IM version 6.3.5 on a Windows system. I am trying to get used to the syntax and everything worked fine so far, but now I wanted to do some text operations using the -annotate image operator. When I use the -stroke operator with this code:
(which is exactly the same as the outline code example in http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/text/#text_operators),
the result is as follows:
Why does this happen?
In addition, when I use the -annotate operator multiple times in the same way it is used in the examples the resulting texts are not overlayed, but i.e. the second is positioned "over" the first one (or the other way round...)
Thanks for your help in advance,
knedl
