Add multiple lines of text

[wonzling]

Hello, i want to add some text to an foto with this:

Code: Select all

C:\Users\XXXXXX\Desktop\NConvert>nconvert -canvas #1 #500 top-center -bgcolor 255 005 255 -ratio -rtype lanczos  -text_font "Arial" 100 -text_color 0 0 0 -text_flag bottom-center -text_pos 0 -400 -text_rotation 0 -text "Hello Test" TEST.jpg

This code works perfect.
Now i want the text under the image in two lines:

Hello
Test

I have tried to export from XNView MP but also this not works ...
Can someone help me?
Thanks

The problem, ignoring all the other details, is how to use the -text option to insert two lines of text, if that is actually possible?

In XnView MP Batch convert (or XnConvert) pressing the 'Enter' key creates a second text line in the image preview, and the exported code has a line break at that point, have you tested what happens if you put a line break in your code, quite possibly nothing?

If a line break in the code doesn't work, I'm not sure whether there is any other character that might be recognised as a line break?

If those possibilities don't work, my only immediate suggestion would be to write the two lines in separate lines of code.

Update:

I've now tested with a line break ('Enter') in the code line, and not surprisingly the code doesn't run.

So the only solution would seem to be to use two lines of code, to write first one line of text, then the second one below.

@Pierre: Is there any way to write two lines of text using one line of code, to force a new line?

Text_1
Text_2

No, but i'll add in next version \n as new line character...

@Piere. OK thank you.
A suggestion: start nconvert with the XBS from XNVIEW MP. This would be nice.
Like:
nconvert -Test.xbs

And what about xnconvert test.xbs?

Fine - I'm just looking for it too.

@Xnview:
Do you already know when you will release the next version?
