What does the "-compare" option do?

[XnTriq]

Code: Select all

-compare filename method : Compare with this image, method (red, red_only)

[xnview]

output pixels difference between 2 images (need to be same size)

[XnTriq]

output pixels difference between 2 images (need to be same size)

I was hoping for something like this to be implemented, but I can't get it to work.

How do I tell nConvert to compare (the blue channels of) two images (original.png + edited.png)?

Code: Select all

nconvert.exe -compare edited.png original.png

Could you please give me an example illustrating the purpose of the method argument and what values (red/green/bue? red_only/green_only/blue_only/alpha_only?) are accepted as parameters?

[xnview]

you can try

Code: Select all

nconvert.exe -compare edited.png red original.png

only red/red_only as parameters

[XnTriq]

you can try

Code: Select all

nconvert.exe -compare edited.png red original.png

only red/red_only as parameters

Thanks, Pierre!
