cristyd2432012015-05-04 23:15:15 +0000[diff] [blame]61<p class="lead magick-description">The design of ImageMagick is an evolutionary process, with the design and implementation efforts serving to influence and guide further progress in the other. With ImageMagick version 7 we aim to improve the design based on lessons learned from the version 6 implementation. ImageMagick was originally designed to display RGB images to an X Windows server. Over time we extended support to RGBA images and then to the CMYK and CMYKA image format. With ImageMagick version 7, we extend support to arbitrary colorspaces with an arbitrary number of pixel channels. Other design changes are in the works and we will document them here so be sure to revisit periodically.</p>

cristyd2432012015-05-04 23:15:15 +0000[diff] [blame]63<p>To support variable pixel channels in the MagickCore API, pixel handling has changed when getting or setting the pixel channels. You can access channels as an array, <var>pixel[i]</var>, or use an accessor such as GetPixelRed() or SetPixelRed(). There are some modest changes to the MagickCore and MagickWand API. Magick++ and PerlMagick should behave exactly as it does for ImageMagick version 6.</p>

cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]65<p>The shell API (command line) of ImageMagick version 7 is also undergoing
66a major overhaul, with specific emphasis on the ability to read 'options' not
67only from the command line, but also from scripts, and file streams. This
68allows for the use of 'co-processing' programming techniques or performing
69image handling using 'deamon/server backends', and even multi-machine
70distributed processing.</p>
71
72<p>With shell API overhaul other improvements are being made, including:
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]73better reporting of which option failed, the consolidation and deprecation of
cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]74options, and more global use of 'image properities' (more commonly known as
75'percent escapes' in option arguments. </p>

cristy91469932014-07-25 11:00:25 +0000[diff] [blame]77<p>ImageMagick version 7 is available now as an <a href="http://www.imagemagick.org/download/beta/">Beta</a> release. Look for an official release around 1st Q 2016. An official ImageMagick version 7 release depends on how smoothly the Beta cycle progresses. During the Beta cycle, version 6 developers can attempt to port their software to version 7.</p>

cristy37b3d442015-02-28 14:00:30 +0000[diff] [blame]82<p>ImageMagick version 7 enables <a href="high-dynamic-range.html">high dynamic range imaging</a> (HDRI) by default. HDRI accurately represents the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from the brightest direct sunlight to the deepest darkest shadows. In addition, image processing results are more accurate. The disadvantage is it requires more memory and may result in slower processing times. If you see differences in the results of your version 6 command-line with version 7, it is likely due to HDRI. You may need to add <code>-clamp</code> to your command-line to constrain pixels to the 0 .. QuantumRange range, or disable HDRI when you build ImaegMagick version 7. To disable HDRI (recommended for smart phone builds such as iOS), simply add <code>--disable-hdri</code> to the configure script command line when building ImageMagick.</p>

85<p>A pixel is comprised of one or more color values, or <var>channels</var> (e.g. red pixel channel).</p>
cristy1efc1ab2011-08-01 14:47:02 +0000[diff] [blame]86<p>Prior versions of ImageMagick (4-6), support 4 to 5 pixel channels (RGBA or CMYKA). The first 4 channels are accessed with the PixelPacket data structure. The structure includes 4 members of type Quantum (typically 16-bits) of red, green, blue, and opacity. The black channel or colormap indexes are supported by a separate method and structure, IndexPacket. As an example, here is a code snippet from ImageMagick version 6 that negates the color components (but not the alpha component) of the image pixels:</p>

Source code that compiles against prior versions of ImageMagick requires refactoring to work with ImageMagick version 7. We illustrate with an example.

cristyeed6cb62012-01-28 19:38:34 +0000[diff] [blame]277<p>In version 7, we introduce pixel user channels. Traditionally we utilize 4 channels, red, green, blue, and alpha. For CMYK we also have a black channel. User channels are designed to contain whatever additional channel information that makes sense for your application. Some examples include extra channels in TIFF or PSD images or perhaps you require a channel with infrared information for the pixel. You can associate traits with the user channels so that they when they are acted upon by an image processing algorithm (e.g. blur) the pixels are copied, acted upon by the algorithm, or even blended with the alpha channel if that makes sense.</p>
cristy149d58c2013-08-07 19:44:54 +0000[diff] [blame]278<h4>Pixel Metacontent</h4>
cristyeed6cb62012-01-28 19:38:34 +0000[diff] [blame]279<p>In version 7, we introduce pixel metacontent. Metacontent is content about content. So rather than being the content itself, it's something that describes or is associated with the content. Here the content is a pixel. The pixel metacontent is for your exclusive use and is accessed with these MagickCore API methods:</p>

cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]290<p>We support alpha now, previously opacity. With alpha, a value of 0 means that the pixel does not have any coverage information and is transparent; i.e. there was no color contribution from any geometry because the geometry did not overlap this pixel. A value of QuantumRange means that the pixel is opaque because the geometry completely overlapped the pixel. As a consequence, in version 7, the PixelInfo structure member alpha has replaced the previous opacity member. Another consequence is the alpha part of a sRGB value in hexadecimal notation is now reversed (e.g. #0000 is fully transparent).</p>

319<li>All method channel analogs have been removed (e.g. BlurImageChannel()), they are no longer necessary, use pixel traits instead.</li>
320<li>Public and private API calls are now declared with the GCC visibility attribute. The MagickCore and MagickWand dynamic libraries now only export public struct and function declarations.</li>
321<li>The InterpolatePixelMethod enum is now PixelInterpolateMethod.</li>
322<li>The IntegerPixel storage type is removed (use LongPixel instead) and LongLongPixel is added</li>
323<li>Image signatures have changed to account for variable pixel channels.</li>
324<li>All color packet structures, PixelPacket, LongPacket, and DoublePacket, are consolidated to a single color structure, PixelInfo.</li>
325<li>The ChannelMoments structure member <code>I</code> is now <code>invariant</code>. <code>I</code> conflicts with the <code>complex.h</code> header.</li>

cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]345
346<p>As mentioned the primary focus of the changes to the Shell API or Command
cristyd2432012015-05-04 23:15:15 +0000[diff] [blame]347Line Interface is the abstraction so that not only can <var>options</var> be read
cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]348from command line arguments, but also from a file (script) or from a file
349stream (interactive commands, or co-processing). </p>
350
351<p>To do this the CLI parser needed to be re-written, so as to always perform
352all options, in a strict, do-it-as-you-see it order. Previously in IMv6
353options were performed in groups (known as 'FireOptions), this awkwardness is
cristy37b3d442015-02-28 14:00:30 +0000[diff] [blame]354now gone. However the strict order means that you can no longer give operations
cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]355before providing an image for the operations to work on. To do so will now
356produce an error. </p>
357
358<p>Error reporting is now reporting exactly which option (by argument count on
359command line, or line,column in scripts) caused the 'exception'. This is not
360complete as yet but getting better. Also not complete is 'regard-warnings'
361handling or its replacement, which will allow you to ignore reported errors
362and continue processing (as appropriate due to error) in co-processes or
363interactive usage. </p>
364
365<p>The parenthesis options used to 'push' the current image list, and image
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]366settings (EG: '<code>(</code>' and '<code>)</code>' ) on to a stack now has
cristy91469932014-07-25 11:00:25 +0000[diff] [blame]367a completely separate image settings stack. That is parenthesis 'push/pull'
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]368image lists, and curly braces (EG: '<code>{</code>' and '<code>}</code>' ) will
cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]369'push/pull' image settings. </p>
370
371<p>Of course due to the previously reported changes to the underlying channel
372handling will result be many side effects to almost all options. Here are some
373specific </p>
374
375<p>Most algorithms update the red, green, blue, black (for CMYK), and alpha
376channels. Most operators will blend alpha the other color channels, but other
377operators (and situations) may require this blending to be disabled, and is
378currently done by removing alpha from teh active channels via
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]379<code>-channel</code> option. (e.g. <code>convert castle.gif -channel RGB
380-negate castle.png</code>). </p>

cristy37b3d442015-02-28 14:00:30 +0000[diff] [blame]382<p>Reading gray-scale images generate an image with only one channel. If
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]383that image is to then accept color the <code>-colorspace</code> setting needs to
cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]384be applied to expand the one channel into separate RGB (or other) channels.

cristyd2432012015-05-04 23:15:15 +0000[diff] [blame]386<p>Previously, command-line arguments were limited to 4096 characters, with ImageMagick version 7 the limit has increased to 131072 characters.</p>

411<p>Image settings are applied to each image on the command line. To associate a setting with a particular image, use parenthesis to remove ambiguity. In this example we assign a unique page offset to each image:</p>

415
416<p>By default, image operations such as convolution blends alpha with each channel. To convolve each channel independently, deactivate the alpha channel as follows:</p>

cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]427<h3>New Options</h3>
428<p>ImageMagick version 7 supports these new options, though most are limited
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]429to the "<code>magick</code>" command, or to use in "<code>magick</code>"

cristy37b3d442015-02-28 14:00:30 +0000[diff] [blame]442 explicitly separate the operations to be applied and the images that
cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]443 are to be processed 'in-place'. (not yet implemented). However if
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]444 not provided, "<code>-read</code>" can still be used to differentiate
cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]445 secondary image reads (for use in things like alpha composition) from
446 the 'in-place' image being processed. </dd>

cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]493 this option. Can be used in a script to force the "<code>magick</code>"

cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]499 write. ASIDE: even the "<code>NULL:</code>" coder requires at least one

504<dd>Explicit read of an image, rather than an implicit read. This allows you
505 to read from filenames that start with an 'option' character, and which
506 otherwise could be mistaken as an option (unknown or otherwise). This will
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]507 eventually be used in "<code>mogrify</code>" to allow the reading of
cristy751980d2012-06-03 23:18:35 +0000[diff] [blame]508 secondary images, and allow the use of image list operations within that

cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]587<h4>Pixels</h4>
cristyd2432012015-05-04 23:15:15 +0000[diff] [blame]588<ul>
cristy1efc1ab2011-08-01 14:47:02 +0000[diff] [blame]589<li>Pixels are no longer addressed with PixelPacket structure members (e.g. red, green, blue, opacity) but as an array of channels (e.g. pixel[PixelRedChannel]).</li>
590<li>Use convenience macros to access pixel channels (e.g. GetPixelRed(), SetPixelRed()).</li>
cristy8ee7f242013-06-20 16:08:44 +0000[diff] [blame]591<li>The black channel for the CMYK colorspace is no longer stored in the index channel, previously accessed with GetAuthenticIndexQueue() and GetCacheViewAuthenticIndexQueue(). Instead it is now a pixel channel and accessed with the convenience pixel macros GetPixelBlack() and SetPixelBlack().</li>
592<li>The index channel for colormapped images is no longer stored in the index channel, previously accessed with GetAuthenticIndexQueue() and GetCacheViewAuthenticIndexQueue(). Instead it is now a pixel channel and accessed with the convenience pixel macros GetPixelIndex() and SetPixelIndex().</li>
cristy1efc1ab2011-08-01 14:47:02 +0000[diff] [blame]593<li>Use GetPixelChannels() to advance to the next set of pixel channels.</li>
cristyd2432012015-05-04 23:15:15 +0000[diff] [blame]594<li>Use the <var>metacontent</var> channel to associate metacontent with each pixel.</li>
cristyeed6cb62012-01-28 19:38:34 +0000[diff] [blame]595<li>All color packet structures, PixelPacket, LongPacket, and DoublePacket, are consolidated to a single color structure, PixelInfo.</li>

cristyba1758d2011-06-03 01:29:12 +0000[diff] [blame]599<li>We support alpha rather than opacity (0 transparent; QuantumRange opaque).</li>
cristy1efc1ab2011-08-01 14:47:02 +0000[diff] [blame]600<li>Use GetPixelAlpha() or SetPixelAlpha() to get or set the alpha pixel channel value.</li>

cristy1efc1ab2011-08-01 14:47:02 +0000[diff] [blame]604<li>Grayscale images consume one pixel channel in ImageMagick version 7. To process RGB, set the colorspace to RGB (e.g. -colorspace rgb).</li>
cristyd2432012015-05-04 23:15:15 +0000[diff] [blame]605</ul>

cristyeed6cb62012-01-28 19:38:34 +0000[diff] [blame]608<li>Almost all image processing algorithms are now channel aware.</li>
cristy1efc1ab2011-08-01 14:47:02 +0000[diff] [blame]609<li>MagickCore, version 7, adds an ExceptionInfo argument to those methods that lacked it in version 6, e.g. NegateImage(image,MagickTrue,exception);</li>
610<li>All method channel analogs have been removed (e.g. BlurImageChannel()), they are no longer necessary, use pixel traits instead.</li>
cristyeed6cb62012-01-28 19:38:34 +0000[diff] [blame]611<li>Public and private API calls are now declared with the GCC visibility attribute. The MagickCore and MagickWand dynamic libraries now only export public struct and function declarations.</li>
612<li>The InterpolatePixelMethod enum is now PixelInterpolateMethod.</li>
613<li>To account for variable pixel channels, images may now return a different signature.</li>
