Hello, I just read the thread on 'Adding text to an image' and it has inspired me to want to create a drop shadow text image using a script. Both the value of text and its color will be parameters to the script. The background of the final image is to be transparent.
To that end I need to learn the following: 1. What parameters may I use to 'xc:'? 2. Once I have a text on a suitable background how can I determine the bounding box for the text and cut the image to that size? 3. If I can do step 2 then I can create the same text in say a dark gray for the shadow. How do I apply a small guassian blur to the shadow image? Thanks, Bob -- In a world without walls who needs Windows (or Gates)?
