InHisNameQue Pasa ?14:33
pvl1_im soo sore16:04
InHisNameI have several photo applicaitons.  Which will be able to change X x Y pixels to 460 x 284 pixels ?    A ImageMagick, B gimp, C Shotwell viewer, D. Shutter, E. FireFox19:42
InHisNameI know one of the non gimp ones did, but I cant find the process to do it now.19:43
pvl1_i just use gimp, cuz its the only one i know how to use and it can do everything ive needed19:50
teddy-dbearimagemagic can do it19:52
=== pvl1_ is now known as pvl1
waltmanimagemagick can do it, and since it's a command like tool it can be easily scripted20:23
JonathanDI just did this with imagemagick20:35
waltmanIf you're comfortable with the command line, you can do that easily with imagemagick.20:36
waltmanactually today I've been writing a new little image cropping tool. in matlab. :(20:37
InHisNameWow, that sound better than doing gui messing around with each one.20:37
waltmanhttp://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-processing.php20:37
InHisNameJust when I was about to ask, you answered first.20:38
waltmanlook for "Inline Image Resize"20:38
InHisNameThanks !20:38
waltmanmy cropper is cropping the black edges from stem cell images20:39
waltmanWe have a C++ program that does that, but it was proving to be too hard to maintain.20:41
InHisNamean auto cropper ?   Or do you get to control what part gets selected ?20:42
waltmanIt's an auto cropper.20:42
InHisNameDo your images all have 'boring' borders that are easily cropped by an algorithm without loosing anything important ?20:44
waltmanI converted 543 lines of C++ into 53 lines of matlab :)20:44
waltmanIt's really only the ones from the biologists I deal with.20:44
waltmanIt's a sharp enough border that you can find it automatically.20:45
InHisNameSo, its very predictable what can be cropped from the collections ?20:45
waltmanThe guts of the script is only like 5 lines of code.20:45
waltmanfrom the collections?20:46
InHisNameNot so easy with people / scenery pictures.20:46
waltmanThese are time lapse movies. There are several thousand images, but they're all extremely similar.20:46
waltmanthough this technique would probably work for any pictures with a solid black border.20:47
InHisNamea video cropper,  spiffy.20:48
waltmanThey're similar enough that I only have to find the crop region on the first image, and then I can use it for everything.20:48
waltmanThe actual cropping is 2 lines of matlab.20:48
waltmanThere's more code to loop over the directory than there is to do the cropping20:50
InHisNameNow I'm done croppng, brighness & contrast boosting, and rescaling to 460x approx 284.  For the moment, until I have more to do another day.20:50
InHisNameUmm, how to enter ImageMagick command line mode ?  (and quit too)20:55
waltmanInHisName: If you've installed it from ubuntu, you should just have to run convert(1) from a shell prompt.21:08
