Mask create grey image

[Marcel71]

Hi,

When I do the following command, my original image turns gray and it leaves a small gray border around the heart. Anybody know how to make a different command so it will work?

Code: Select all

magick heart.png -resize 296x261! -channel RGBA -blur 0x0 -draw "image Out -135,-6 584,443 'kitty.png' " -trim +repage out.png

heart.png:


kitty.png


result:

You can do that as follows by anti-aliasing the mask with some blurring. This is Unix syntax. You did not identify your platform.

Code: Select all

convert kitty.png \
\( heart.png -alpha extract -negate -blur 0x1 -level 50x100% \) \
-alpha off -gravity center -compose copy_opacity -composite \
kitty_masked.png

Increase the blur 0x2 if you need more smoothing.
