Graphics conversion

• scaling/resize,
• crop,
• text annotation, inside or outside of picture (mems generator),
• border around picture,
• rotation,
• mirroring (vertical or horizontal)
• black-white or sepia,
• contrast increase/decrease or normalize or histogram stretching,
• color auto-level or equalize,
• vignette
• adding logo image on picture,
• file formats: JPG, PNG, TIFF, SVG
• format conversion into JPG, PNG, TIFF.

Functionality:

• processing JPG, PNG, SVG and TIFF images,
• processing picture in the fly, originals are safe,
• processing single file or whole directory,
• take screenshot (Linux) or get picture from clipboard (Windows and MacOS) and use it as source picture,
• after processing results is copied into clipboard (Windows),
• display selected tools,
• tools selection,
• preview orignal and result,
• predefined rotation: 90, 180 and 270 degree or custom,
• crop selection via click on preview or coordinates,
• crop coordinates:
  • two corners (upper left and lower right),
  • upper left corner and width plus height,
  • gravity, width plus height plus offset,
• text: color, font and size selection, background, rotation,
• text position:
  • outside: bottom, left/center/right
  • inside: by gravity or by position and rotate
• customized sepia,
• equalize by channel,
• contrast between -5 and +5,
• customized contrast stretching,
• vignette:
  • can be sharp or blured,
  • corners can be filled by selected color,
  • offset in both direction
• logo position by gravity, size and offset,
• histograms of original and result pictures (temporary disabled),
• fast file navigation: First, Prev, Next, Last or keys: Home, PgUp, PgDn, End,
• command editor: possible to use ImageMagick commands for convert: eg. -gaussian-blur 10x10 or -monochrome, etc.

Processing

Is possible to run one conversion or all selected conversion. Processing order for all selected conversion:

• crop,
• mirror,
• black-white/sepia,
• contrast,
• color normalize,
• vignette,
• rotate,
