Creates an animated transition between two images using a special effect distortion. |
last modified: September 26, 2017
USAGE: fxtransitions [-e effect] [-f frames] [-d delay] [-p pause] [-b bgcolor] [-r] infile1 infile2 [outfile]
-e .... effect ....... transition effect type: blur, explode, implode, pixelize, PURPOSE: To create an animated transition between two images using a special effect distortion. DESCRIPTION: FXTRANSITIONS creates an animated transition between two images using a special effect distortion. The special effects distortions include: blur, explode, implode, pixelize, recursion, spin, spread, swirl, zoomin and zoomout. ARGUMENTS: -e effect ... EFFECT is the type of distortion to use as the means for creating the animated transition between the two input images. The choices are: blur, explode, implode, pixelize, recursion, spin, spread, swirl, zoomin and zoomout. The default=blur. -f frames ... FRAMES is the number of frames in the animation of each of the two input images. Values are integers > 1. The default is 10. Thus the total number of frames will be 2*frames. If the animation is reversed, then the total number of frames will be 4*frames-2. -d delay ... DELAY between frames. Values are integers>0. The default=20 -p pause ... PAUSE is the delay to use for the first and last frame of the animation, i.e. the delay for each of the input images. The default=50 -b bgcolor ... BGCOLOR is the background color to use for fill when the effect is zoomout. Any valid IM color specification. The default=black. -r ... If supplied, then reverse the animation sequence, remove the first and last frames of the reversed sequence and append these reversed frames to the end of the animation. CAVEAT: No guarantee that this script will work on all platforms, nor that trapping of inconsistent parameters is complete and foolproof. Use At Your Own Risk. |
