I have a .png images with transparent background.
I would like to auto-resize them to remove empty areas on the sides in command line, is it possible with ImageMagick?
Yes, this is possible using the -trim operator. Typical usage:
convert image.png -trim +repage image_trimmed.png

I have an image that all four margins are transparent alpha channels and I want to crop all margins and only keep the non-alpha channel parts. Is there any way to do it with ImageMagick? Take this image as an example but consider its transparent margins!
You can do that in Imagemagick using -trim to automatically remove the constant transparent regions.
convert img.png -trim +repage result.png
I have around 2500 images. Some of them contains border while others arent. What I want to accomplish is to add border to the ones that doesn't have any.
Images with border are 64x64 and images without border are 56x56
I prepared a border image file with size of 64x64 in PNG format and I want to merge all files without border within this image to get them borders and output them as PNG format aswell.
I have tried several ways using ImageMagic but no luck so far.
If you make a 64x64 lime-magenta gradient as background.png and a solid blue 56x56 image as foreground.png like this:
magick -size 64x64 gradient:lime-magenta background.png
magick -size 56x56 xc:blue foreground.png
Your command to paste the foreground into the centre of the background is as simple as:
magick -gravity center background.png foreground.png -composite result.png
I figured out it's pretty doable with convert tool from the ImageMagick package.
First I extracted all images with size of 56x56 to different location, then I did the following;
I added 4 pixels on each side since my border is 64x64
for image in ICO_*.png; do
convert -page +0+0 border.png \
-page +4+4 $image \
-background none -layers merge +repage $image-withBorder.png
done
I want to use mogrify to set the background colour of a large number of images to be whatever colour is at a specific pixel, to make them square.
The vast majority have a single colour in the image background, or are photos in front of a single colour (so with only slight variations from shadows, etc.).
(The specific purpose in this case is to make the images all the same size and square for StyleGAN2-ADA training, so I want to avoid big "letterbox" rectangles where possible as it would be seen by the discriminator as relevant to the image, where a more faded-in background that approximately matches would be more likely to be ignored. Specifically, I have thousands of pictures of single dolls and action figures from various sources, some of which are "trimmed out" to have a truly solid colour background, others of which are against solid colour tables/walls/etc, for instance, from eBay images and such.)
Since they do not all have the same colour in the image background (the colour in the image, as opposed to the 'background colour' setting as per ImageMagick's jargon), I need to sample a pixel and set the background, but I can't figure out how. I tried things based on methods used to set the whole image to one colour, to no avail.
I have tried:
mogrify -verbose -resize 1024x1024 -gravity center -background 'p{10,10}' -extent 1024x1024 -resize 256x256 *.jpg
and
mogrify -verbose -resize 1024x1024 -gravity center -background "%[pixel:p{10,10}]" -extent 1024x1024 -resize 256x256 *.jpg
and neither works. I can't find any other possibilities in the documentation.
EDITED TO ADD: While testing various commands I came across a way to modify your original command to make it work on ImageMagick versions as far back as IMv6.8.
mogrify -resize 1024x1024 -set background "%[pixel:p{10,10}]" \
-gravity center -extent 1024x1024 -resize 256x256 *.jpg
The significant difference is setting the background color in an unusual way. Instead of the normal option -background <color>, this command uses -set background <color>. Then it behaves as expected using that +10+10 color as the background in the "mogrify" command.
For ImageMagick v7 use magick mogrify instead of just mogrify.
The following was my original answer. The suggestion for IMv6 "convert" may be quite useful for some workflows, but the answer above seems to be the simplest, most direct route.
PREVIOUS ANSWER:
ImageMagick v6 won't do that inline parsing of the color, but there are ways to get the same result, usually with IM's "convert" in a "for" loop in your shell. I don't know which shell you're using so I don't know how you'd write a "for" loop, but running this command inside the loop on each image should give you the results you described...
convert $image -resize 1024x1024 ( +clone -crop 1x1+10+10 ) +swap \
-resize 1024x1024 -gravity center -composite -resize 256x256 $image
That reads in the image, resizes it, makes a clone inside the parentheses, and extracts that pixel at +10+10. After the parentheses that single pixel get resized to a 1024x1024 square. Then setting the gravity to "center" and compositing the input image over that colored square gives you the result you described.
So here is my original image (note the transparent border) src.png:
Here's the mask I want to use to crop. White means keep, black means crop mask.png: (Note that it isn't necessarily going to be a square. It could be a heart or a star or anything)
I also have transparent.png, which is a fully transparent image. All three images have the same dimensions.
So, running this command generates the following image:
convert transparent.png src.png mask.png -composite out.png
Which is masking perfectly, but now I want it cropped to the size of the white mask area. Using -trim is sort of close, but it gets rid of the transparent areas that are inside the mask.
How can I resize the masked image to the size of the white area in the mask?
I am not sure I understand what you want for the result. Why do you need the fully transparent image? Do either of these do what you want?
Full sized transparent image with masked area showing:
convert src.png mask.png -alpha off -compose copy_opacity -composite result1.png
Trimmed to just the part you want:
convert src.png mask.png -alpha off -compose copy_opacity -composite -trim +repage result2.png
Not sure I understand what you are trying to do, not least why you need a full size transparent canvas. Your command does not give the same results on my ImageMagick version 7.
This command may be what you are looking for:
convert src.png mask.png -compose darken -composite -trim out.png
It gives this - I have artificially added a red border so you can see the full extent on StackOverflow's white background:
Or maybe you want the trim box from your mask and to use that to crop your source:
convert mask.png -format %# info:
113x113+570+33
convert src.png -crop 113x113+570+33 result.png
If you want to crop a square from picture, you no needs using mask, just crop it:
magick Uq328.png -crop -crop 111x111+570+331 +repage cropped.png
according to https://legacy.imagemagick.org/Usage/crop/
I want to add a tiled background to a transparent image.
According to the docs this should do it:
convert test.png -texture paper.png result.png
I also tried other variations (with -composite, -flatten, -tile, etc.) but result.png is either still transparent or just gets a white background.
ImageMagick-6.8.7-5 on Windows.
I got it to work with
convert -size 4096x4096 tile:paper.png test.png -flatten result.png
