Gradient Image (Transform command from IM 7 to Magick.Net)

[jaka1-newbie]

Please help to transform command.
It do gradient at image from 1 color to another.
I can't find any other solutions, only this from IM7

back.png -set option:dims "%wx%h" ( -size "%[dims]" gradient:"{-Variable.backColor-}-{-Variable.textColor-}" ) ( -clone 0 -alpha extract ) -delete 0 -alpha off -compose copy_opacity -composite back.png

What have to tried so far? Most options are methods on the MagickImage or the MagickImageCollection class.

[jaka1-newbie]

I don't understand how to set options and didn't find gradient command

[dlemstra]

You can set an option with image.Settings.SetDefine(name, value). And if you want to read a gradient you will want to do this: new MagickImage("gradient:color1-color2").

Can Magick.Net do gradient border ?

[dlemstra]

This library can do everything ImageMagick does. Not sure what yo are asking.

[jaka1-newbie]

Something like this

[dlemstra]

A possible solution would be this:

using (var image = new MagickImage("input.png"))
{
    var size = 10;
    using (var gradient = new MagickImage("gradient:green-pink", image.Width + size, image.Height + size))
    {
        gradient.Composite(image, Gravity.Center);
        gradient.Write("output.png");
    }
}

As i understood we create new MagickImage.
So can we create gradient for 1 letter?
Like this

This is monogram font.

I have no idea what you are trying to ask me.

[jaka1-newbie]

I want to create Image with 1 Letter
(This is letter from monogram font) and want color of this letter - gradient.

From https://prnt.sc/1rbipek
To https://prnt.sc/1rbiqzb

convert -size 320x100 xc:lightblue -font Candice -pointsize 72 -tile gradient: -annotate +28+68 'Anthony' font_gradient.jpg

[dlemstra]

That command would translate into this:

using (var image = new MagickImage("xc:lightblue", 320, 100))
{
    using (var gradient = new MagickImage("gradient:", 320, 100))
    {
        image.Settings.Font = "Candice";
        image.Settings.FontPointsize = 72;
        image.Settings.FillPattern = gradient;

        // You need Gravity.Undefined for now due to a bug, you won't need it in the next release.
        image.Annotate("Anthony", new MagickGeometry("+28+68"), Gravity.Undefined);

        image.Write("font_gradient.jpg");
    }
}

Yes! Thx!
How to make more difficult gradients and change direction?

[dlemstra]

What do you mean by a more difficult gradient?
