Lets say you're working for a company with multiple products that all
share the same template image for their company logo. The marketing
dept comes to you and insists that you do the following for each splash
screen:
Take the template company logo image and insert a different product logo
per product to the precise location (precise down to the pixel, and yes
there are people who are this picky....). Then take the resulting image
and draw the product name, version, build # and date, and rotate that
slighty by 5 degrees.
Are there any existing utils that allow you to do this without either
writing a shell script or coding your own executable specific for the
task? I haven't been able to find one.... and I think it'd be
incredibly useful. Especially if a wide assortment of ANT users develop
servlet based apps. You can also throw some more twists to the story,
like add a certain border, or background, alpha layer, etc to make the
task more difficult. Is there an existing automated solution to this?
yeah, that makes sense. You are using ant as your workflow language for
image manip.
Actually I always thought about doing an image scale task for doing some of
my photo processing before publishing, and we do have an <imagediff> task
that takes two jpegs, diffs them into a jpeg to highlight differences, and
can throw a buildexception if the two images dont match. Regression testing
on the old SVG, see.
Sounds pretty cool. Thats something that could be included in this.
Does this mean you endorse it with a +1?? :)
